2.BBC Regional (same as 1) News theme by remix
3.2005-2010 ABC News theme
4.2010-2017 ABC News theme

Thanks for your opinion.

@TVAustraliaPHL I reckon the 2010-2017 ABC News theme. I wouldn’t use any theme that is currently is use (like the 2017-now ABC News theme) IMO.

Not informative,but i rely on mobile and tablet, which i wish i just used for regular use, not overloading these with grade a hard tasks.

I was trying to create a CNN Australia fake channel, because we have our own FTA CNN Version which is a part of the CNN International franchise, but when i was trying to create watermarks, i wanted to slap my forehead because it was SO HARD! Probably harder than an ice cube to get out of a tray, so, yeah, just that, more fake content here soon as well.

correction (I can’t edit my own posts): Tim Gossage (sport)

Also National News First on Saturdays is one full hour.

So basically 9?

Mostly, yes. However, there would also be a slew of Ten programming including the favourites (MasterChef, Survivor etc.) and Studio 10 is in place of Today Extra.

M&S (stands for Music & Sport)

I was going to give it the name S&M (for Sport & Music), but thought it to be inappropriate.

Basically this channel would televise the majority of Australian sports (including NRL, AFL, Supercars, etc.) and other sports around the world such as American football, the tennis Grand Slams, the golf Grand Slams, English Premier League etc. and music videos would be used as “fillers” when live sport is not scheduled.

At least two separate channels would be provided to cater for the expected overflow of live sports.

In the two league markets (Sydney and Brisbane), the NRL would be broadcast on the main channel and the AFL would be on the secondary channel, and vice versa.

A news program called Sports News Now would cover the day’s sports news and be broadcast sometime after 10:30pm.

An entertainment news program called ET Australia (the Australian adoption of Entertainment Tonight) would cover the entertainment news.

Hey

ATN is now only Australian, no fake country.

That’s all.

Are national bulletins cut due to DST, Australian time is confusing, like is ABC News at Noon cut due to DST and because the only states and territory who observes DST is NSW, VIC, SA, TAS, and the ACT, does the ABC give WA, and QLD a special edition of the noon Bulletin? If possible, the NT as well.

That was just a random thought. Because I have a graphic mock for ATN but if DST starts, it’s going to be a nightmare if I have a News team by 2021, anybody else who thinks time in Australia is confusing and unnecessary?
