I hope that’s from an on air package and not something a journo with a great eye for design made up for social media.
Why use a different font for “News” versus the rest? Otherwise, extremely polished by SCA’s typical standards.
If only they could use the Seven news music like Prime7 does. It already looks 100x better than before and it would only get better with proper Seven music.
If they’re not going to use the Seven theme, I think the SA theme would be the perfect replacement to the old noodle update sting.
Does it show Tasmania, part of which is in the 7 Central licence area?
Good find. Drawing up a scathing letter to SCA executives right now. 
Surprised the Tassie team let it go to air like that actually.
Tonight’s Evening updates:
How long have Southern Cross been producing these local 7 news Updates in Darwin?
Who writes these things?
“I’ll see you in a little bit with more news”
Not to mention saying “Hi” at the start.
And the production values on the 7 updates are just awful.
They could easily be so much better.
I’m sure the 3 viewers they have in Tasmania are outraged at being left out 
At least 5 years now, as Southern Cross news updates up until a month ago.
What do you guys think of Alex Sykes?
Do the updates on SC7 Tasmania and SC7 GTS/BKN have the same branding and backdrop? I assume Alex doesn’t do the 7 Tas updates as she would then be appearing on both 7 and 9 in that market…
I thought Darwin and Central had shared news updates (or is this still the case, but these recordings are different bulletins)? The cities on the weather map are identical.
I haven’t seen many Central updates, but they seem very NT-centric. What’s the chances of a story from Weipa or Ceduna featuring?
On the eye? 
She’s pretty good as a presenter. Intros need work obviously, and she still comes across as new to the role, but I think she’s on the right track. Quite professional.
Still miss Jared Cootsy and Sammy Hunt 
New to the role?
Alex has been newsreading in one form or another for over 18 months.
Compared to a year ago, this is infinitely better. Still some tweaks to be made, but the shift to Hobart, and fresh minds, have done the world of good.
I said she comes across as new to the role.
