What are you talking about?
It’s been stated that the time slot is massively up on last years figures. And it’s 2 months on.

As opposed to everything else they’ve tried which barely rated a fifth?

The timeslot has maintained improved ratings since the introduction of the bulletin.
Last week it was up approx 26% year-on-year which is a massive increase.
10 News First at 5pm was up 6%
And it seems to be having some flow on effect (though that is harder to tell) with The Project up 28% compared to the equivalent week last year.

But neither could Celebrity Name Game or any other crap they’ve aired in that slot.
6pm news improving on Celebrity Name Game at a fraction of the cost is a no brainer.
Should I expect another mention of Simpsons at 6?

And I said at the time that the instant increase from Celebrity Name Game was good. But as TVCynic pointed out, it has only managed to maintain the ratings from the first bulletin. It needs to keep improving.
You obviously missed the part where it says that it was up last week 26% year on year?
Extending your logic, I’m sure Nine and Seven will ditch their 6pm bulletins because they aren’t constantly improving.

I believe they call that spin. 
I can spin too. 10 News First 6pm is down 21% from this day two years ago.
Bring back Pointless? Family Feud?
I believe it’s called a fact, fact is it’s up YOY when audiences on FTA are typically declining.
But sure, go ahead and bury your head in the sand and tell us all again that The Simpson’s is the answer here.

Except no one uses 2 year old data.
I think when it comes to @Sifon and 6pm slot its better to just ignore him. His obsession with the Simpson’s 26 years on means it’s like trying to have a logical factual conversation with a wall.
Local weekend news update:
Is this new? Or just for today? Are they getting a local bulletin tonight?

Must be going local in Adelaide tonight.
As did Melbourne last year for the AFL Grand Final.

Did Ten News air at 7pm (in Sydney and Melbourne) and various times in the other cities due to the Supercars Races?
A shame that the news didn’t make the top 20 in the ratings for yesterday.
