This strikes me as the Ron Burgundy defence

Nat co-hosting with Kochie and Eddy is back and she is reading News and Entertainment this morning.
Must’ve been a busy week for Cameron Price appearing on the show for three days straight.
The past two days he has been covering the ferocious weather hitting southern Australia (in tandem with David Woiwod).
Samantha Brett covered the anti-abortion rally this morning, also in Sydney.
Bianca Stone is coveting the opening day of Ekka in Brisbane while Nathan Templeton covered the story of the Gold Coast Suns player facing a four-year suspension for testing positive to a banned drug.
Is this detailed description really necessary?
It’s no different to “so and so is presenting today” that floods many topics of the forum.
Great, I can hardly wait for daily Today and Sunrise recaps.
Given MKR and the like have them, I guess this was inevitable.
If there was a special edition of the show, go for it. This just serves no purpose.
Totally agree.
I was piss taking.
I find the “… is presenting today” to be unnecessary too.
Yes, it’s gone from stating the unusual to a description of the minutiae
David Koch had a drink of water on-camera at 7:15. /s
On the other hand, it’s a good tracking method of who’s the talent going up and down at these stations.
But surely not on a daily basis. It’s mainly good, but let’s remember how that spammed the singular ‘ABC News Thread’ so much, Bort has to create the P&R/C&A threads. P&R threads are fantastic, but singular threads can indeed become spammy, who wants sunrise and today threads split because of this.

Nat hosting with Kochie and Eddy presenting News and Entertainment.
Six years today since Sam took over Mel and I still don’t think she was the right choice.
Kochie said during the interview with Hans this morning that Samantha Armytage has been off sick for the past few days.
Still dwelling on the past. Get over it.
Weekend Sunrise 90k ahead of Today yesterday in the 7-9am slot.
It’s the highest Sunday rating since 20 May last year when there was royal wedding coverage.
Tuesday 13 August -
Sam is back hosting with Kochie.
Sunrise won all markets on Monday - ahead nationally by almost 80,000. Today was beaten by News Breakfast in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
Ratings article today. Sunrise won all markets. Today’s Sydney number seemed to be the area that was down the most while Melbourne was OK.
