Melissa Polimeni, I thought that name sounded familiar, regularly heard on 3AW News in Melbourne IIRC. 20 years ago a SC10 News presenter in Canberra: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/ellsNSXZGt4/maxresdefault.jpg "AussieTVHistory.com | Southern Cross Ten - Illawarra News Update (2004)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ellsNSXZGt4) It’s amazing how many from this newsroom have gone on to bigger things: Kath Robinson (CommSec/Ten/ABC), Sarah Cumming (Seven), Lachlan Kennedy (Ten Sydney), Joel Crean (Ten Melbourne), Alexandra Bryant (SCA radio Sydney then Melbourne), Julie Snook (Nine Sydney). Wonder if their former boss Ali Drower (also presented and often on weekends) still runs things? Fiona Nelson was also another senior/long-timer. ---

Brett Mason (ex-Ten and SBS reporter) and Amanda Abate (now Seven Gold Coast) also got their start reading SC10 updates ---

Emma Larouche went to 9 Canberra, Tim Hatfield to 7 Adelaide, Grace Fitzgibbon to 9 and 7 in Sydney. Few more I am sure. For all the many issues with this service, then and now, it was a good starting point for young broadcasters to launch their careers, and as far as sorta entry level media jobs go, it’d be a pretty decent one I reckon!
