So what happens on sky news with people like Rowan Dean. He was sure and certain that the vote would be No today. Will he accept the will of the people?

RELAUNCH ALERT???!!!

If anyone was taping at 10.49am ADST can you check your log and post a cap please. It was a story on CBS suspending Charlie Rose for sexual misconduct allegations, when a new red and white graphic popped up for less than one second - it had a spinning globe bottom left, very BBC-ish.

Does nobody at Sky watch Newsnight? The presenter (for at least 2 nights in a row) has had a blue tint/looks off colour.

That’s the Brisbane studio (a broom cupboard in the Courier-Mail building).

Sky News will launch a new 12-part Indigenous business show Mundine Means Business this Sunday, December 10 at 8pm AEDT. Broadcasting from the new Sky News Business centre and hosted by indigenous leader Nyunggai Warren Mundine, Mundine Means Business will highlight the success and entrepreneurship of Australia’s indigenous communities and examine where the potential lies for improvement.

Got worried when I saw the title that it was Anthony Mundine. Phew.

Going by some of their programming, it wouldn’t have surprised me.

Peter van Onselen is no longer full time at Sky, just a casual once a week reviving The Contrarians.

Interesting. He was in a Twitter argument with a coalition MP last night or the night before, which was kinda hilarious but also fairly stunning for a Sky News personality and journalist.

The conspiracy theorist in me thinks perhaps he wasn’t a part of the groupthink? But it could just be moving on.

I think there was a dislike of him by the night time right wing idiots that infect prime time on sky.

Guessing his commitments at the University of WA means it’s no longer feasible for him to be a full time presenter for Sky

@cmo mentioned a change in line-up for 2018 in this thread back in October

If they’re going to start focussing Sky News on its (right-leaning) opinion shows rather than its news, then this is unsurprising. Surprised Speers is still around, actually

Merry Christmas
