Today

Alex does the 5.00am bulletin so he’s technically on a longer shift than Karl and Aly

Didn’t sound right. She couldn’t get her clothes/luggage but had toys and an iPad? Must be more to it. I’m sure it was this person someone asked about at the press conference this morning. Dr Young said she wasn’t aware of the particular case but would look into it.

I like it, but it looks so out of place in the show. Interrupts the flow as you can tell it’s from another studio.

I guess the problem is that when Today finishes, Extra starts and then news, meaning that the main set is in use from 5.00-12.00, so I’m not sure if there’d be any opportunity to record this on the main set anyway. Unless they’re able to close the soft set off and record the update during Extra?

It’s just the background they’ve used. You never see it like that on the main set. Maybe they could have replicated the background behind one of the hosts better or even the background behind Alex if he does them too.

Why do they keep referring to the show ad Today on 9?

Probably in response to “Sunrise on 7”

Antoinette having a go at Lara on Twitter.

What a piece of work she is proving to be.

Sounds like she’s making a mountain out of a mini molehill.

She knows that there’s a lot of people from various cultural backgrounds living in the South-West right?

Didn’t realise it is such an issue to state a shows name and the channel it broadcasts on…

Good result for the show yesterday with wins in Sydney ( by > 500) and Melbourne (by just 35 :smile: ) before rounding of the numbers to the closest 1,000. Even without rounding the Sydney tie is rare.

It’s probably a dumb tweet/reporting from Lara Vella, but zenophobic?

Anyone who works in the Sydney media industry should know about the multicultural demographics of those who reside in the South West.

I’m not xenophic but… :stuck_out_tongue:

Is that why she has this on Twitter bio? : (FAQs: No, I’m not related to Sonia Kruger) :rofl:

Referring to it three times during one news update. Just a mouthful. Recon viewers can work out when someone has spoken on “Today” without the constant references to “on 9” every single time.

Bec again just presenting sport. Very strange. They persisted for months having Bec and Dickie split on a screen last year. What’s changed? Such a downgrade.

Yeah I can’t understand why they would’ve done this, unless she requested that? Very strange.

It’s a practice that occurs quite a lot on NBC. “But first this is today on NBC.

I quite like it.
