It that what the “Big Announcement” was?

Yes, Sunrise will be live from Rio for the Olympics and will be known as Olympic Sunrise.

Big announcement? Hardly. They’re there because their network has stumped up for the broadcasting rights.

[/quote] Good to hear, a term and broadcast Boland produced. Hopefully they will do it proud.

So they have yet again changed the border around that plasma backdrop as seen on 7News? Back to a full white border that hasn’t got the window depth happening…

Seven should get either Michael Felgate of Nick Etchells for Melbourne Correspondent.

Something tells me they may have said no or Seven News would rather use them (both are now the longest serving respectively at HSV, following Bec’s departure).

I saw Jade Robran again the other day on Sunrise, far cry from her sports reporting role…

Nick Etchells has previously been Melbourne correspondent prior to Rebecca Maddern.

Promo airing tonight for their Mothers Day trip to Fiji plus Sam Mac’s $10 000 give away each day.

Gee that’s original. I wonder how that went down in a production meeting:

“So Stevie Jacobs has been giving away $10,000 in his knock of cash, guess we’d better give Sam (Mac) some money to give away…”

Yawn.

Some catch that it involves your Neighbours as well…

It’s ridiculous that just throwing money at people is going to make people watch the show. It means the content you are providing isn’t enticing them but they will have it on in the background to find out the code word etc. You might as well put quizmania on with a news ticker across the bottom if that’s what your idea is to improve things…

Today’s special investigation on Weekend Sunrise , besides the actual topic itself, reminded me of this forum :slight_smile:

Weekend Sunrise with these investigations and those on the panel have gone a little sensationalist of late.

As much of a dickhead as Latham is, he has a valid point at the end regarding O’Keefe. His role is to host, not to go on a tirade. As for Latham, whenever Sunrise want to create a bit of controversy to get people talking they roll out this nutjob or Hanson. It has become a yawn.

On a sidenote, everytime Angela Cox sits on that couch she has to cover herself with the clipboard for fear of doing a Sharon Stone.

Pure gold right there!

Completely agree. AOK has been annoyed with Latham for some weeks now, yet due to controversary winning out - they keep inviting him back.

You’re right, how dare he shut down Latham’s bullying. What a prick.

Oh please. O’Keefe went on and on and on, pushing his own agenda. When your cohost has to tell you to cool it you’ve overstepped the line.
