Not the best location for an OB. It looks like a loading bay
Miss Martin Place for these types of set ups.

It is basically the entrance to the loading bays for the building. The only reason for being outside that I could see was the smashing of plates.

This is the second time. Hopefully it’s not a regular occurrence.

I thought it was a strange choice this morning to announce breaking news of Alan Joyce’s early retirement and then go straight to a break. Must have need time to get a reported to stand outside an airport. In the meantime the news was being discussed by its competitors. When Sunrise returned they described it as “big breaking news” and “major development”.

Could have neen a technical hitch with the cross to the reporter so they went to a break instead.

Na they did it a few weeks ago with John Farnham’s announcement about his cancer.
Nat quickly said it then they went to a commercial break with more after the break.
It’s definitely deliberate. They need to go to a break but breaking news has come through so to get in first they say it first whilst still being able to go their scheduled commercial break.

Risky strategy to hope viewers won’t go elsewhere to find out the details while Sunrise is on a break.

Ah great point. Maybe they don’t care as long as they were first in delivering the news?

I think we need to analyse it some more
This morning Sunrise delivered that breaking news at 8:25am
You then had to wait until 8:30 for the story to be delivered.
News Breakfast had the story from 8:23am so were discussing it when Sunrise went to a break.
Today started discussing the story after an ad break at 8:27

Missed yesterday’s show, but I see the newsfeed segment is on at 7.43 today, about 15 minutes earlier.

It was at the usual time yesterday. They have been moving things around on weekends for a few months now, even though Saturdays have had solid wins. Dr Ginni and Dr Keith got moved later and then put back and last weekend they had Talking Sport at 0745.
