Guessing those inserts are a casualty of the budget cuts occurring across Nine’s news division

A real shame. Hopefully it will return in the future when things start returning back to normal.

Nine seem to be axing things that haven’t been around for long/fly under the radar.

It’s a shame because it was actually better then Sunrise Perth News. The ratings just make it not sustainable.

It seems Today have reverted their news interview style back to one host conducting it. This replicates the current format of Sunrise and News Breakfast.

Ratings for yesterday.
Breakfast TV
Sunrise 299,000

I thought it pertinent to look at the equivalent Tuesday from 2019.
Sunrise 275,000
Today 199,000
News Breakfast 148,000

I think ABC are doing so well cause people want to hear about proper Covid news/facts as they dont trust mainstream media and all the hysteria in reporting it.

That says a lot.
It shows that the News Breakfast has actually grown the breakfast market.

Makes sense that Today blew up the entire show for… a decrease of 1,000 viewers?

I say this all the time, but I’m always amazed when the ABC beats a commercial at Breakfast. This is fantastic news for the industry, more competition between our public and commercial broadcasters is needed.

Esepcially looking at the numbers from 2019, they have gained a massive new following.

With restrictions easing surely something needs to be done about this newsreader situation.

I don’t think they should be showing live footage of the riot currently happening in Minneapolis on breakfast TV. It’s just horrible to watch

So it’s ok to show people getting shot and injured bodies on the ground?
Some incredible scenes coming from Minneapolis.
Tim Arvier is quite a brilliant journalist.
Just handling the situation LIVE on air

People do need to know this is happening. There is quite a backstory behind this.

It’s live. Things happen. “Fuck” was said a few times - it’s live.
What do you want them to show? Advertorials and Karl’s Kooking Kapers?

I understand where @MelbTV is coming from, a situation of this nature, something brutal may occur on LIVE TV, but surely there is a few second delay just in case?
I totally agree, sometimes news is hard to watch.

With Tracy Vo returning to Perth, does that Tim Davies promoted to the role of news anchor Channel Nine’s Today show?
