Only a handful of times.
It wasnāt a disaster. News at Six was getting higher ratings than just about everything tried since. Yes, Sifon, they are arguably not coming to Ten for news in that hourā¦ but they not coming to Ten at all in that hour. Local news works. Itās about the only thing that can get them a decent number there - and I mean decent.
No it didnāt divide the country as it was minor news. Lisa Wilkinson trying desperately hard to confect more controversy.
Waleed Aly does the pre-recorded editorials really well, and has matured into a great interviewer. When he was first on the project I didnāt really like him as he came over as too smug, but over time that smugness has eased. Lisa Wilkinson is trying way too hard with those pre-recorded editorials, I think, as itās not working and she is coming over as too smug. A live discussion about the topic with whoever else is on the panel would be far better.

I always get confused by those promos. joins us? at the desk? if itās a pre record it could actually be Hamish as he is in America right nowā¦ and in saying that if heās not available Sunday who will host?
Yeah, Iām sure Lisa Wilkinson single handedly created that.

Waleed did last week. So I would assume he will again this week?

Hamish probably did a quick trip to US/Mexico for a special report. Good to see some more in depth stuff making its way to commercial tv especially ten as they continue to improve their news coverage.

The cross to Steve Price, presumably from the top of 10ās studios at Pyrmont tonight, was equally as stupid as Tim Baileyās earlier.

A poncho would have been better than Price battling to hold on to the useless umbrella.
More stupid though was the calendar. Iāll give money to help the homeless but I wouldnāt buy that calendar.
Iād say youāre not the target audience.

Also he was holding it with a tissue or piece of cloth. whats with that?
I thought it was a folded printed sheet of paper, that was maybe his notes?
It was probably some notes for what he was talking about, they appeared to have gotten scrunched up and a little wet.
Friday -
