They don’t usually rate these bulletins, just leave it to ABC 24 and Sky for this stuff.

How long did Nick and Ros present? I didn’t catch when they started but Meredith and Jeremy are now presenting after 9pm.

Not to take away from the events but that is a terrible, terrible shot. I’d hope it was taken as the camera was zooming in to a tighter shot but I suspect not? Really I think Tamara should be standing right by the screen and the desk shouldn’t be in shot at all. As @TVHead once said, it looks like they’re playing the floor is lava.

ABC Australia had a couple of frames of the Fox slide after Trump’s speech ended.

Pretty sure it would have been a pool arrangement which Fox would’ve had responsibility to splice out to all the other networks. Very common for situations where there’s no tangible benefit to having two or more cameras, especially something like Trump’s address which was him looking directly at the camera.

You see similar happen here whenever Albo does an overseas trip - one network will be designated as the pool camera, who will shoot the PM. There might be a another camera from a second network to do side-on shots or extra background shots. Both will be fed back live to their respective exchanges and then split out to all the other networks live. Way more common than you think, and funnily enough they all play nice.
