There was once upon a time between 2008-13 when Seven and Ten both shared the same font for the word NEWS in its logo.

Can anyone help me break down this clip? Looks like a daytime news bulletin hosted by 10 legends Jo Pearson and Ron Wilson. But did they co-host from two seperate Melb & Syd studios?

Yep - Ron in Sydney and Jo in Melbourne (with chroma-key) as Melbourne had a different set to Sydney at the time.

Also looks like they removed the “Ten” from the Eyewitness News logo at the end as the bulletin also aired on TV0 in Brisbane.

Thanks guys. I have seen footage of Jo hosting the daytime news solo, but not with Ron. Interesting set up. I guess it gave Jo a national profile while she and David were high in the ratings in Melbourne?
re: 10 logo from Eyewitness News. My understanding was that it was always just known as ‘Eyewitness News’ (which I prefered to the longer Ten Eyewitness News used in the 90s and 2010s - felt more like a stand alone product). It may have incorporated the 10 for visual purposes before or after the Eyewitness News logo, or left it out completely.

It was known as just Eyewitness News but it was usually accompanied by the Ten logo. But it looks like they removed the logo for that national morning bulletin.

I assume the Channel 9 version of Daybreak came later on?
For the record on how they looked…
