Mate, no offence but we’ve heard all this before. It’s @AK_NEWS and @LiamP’s networks we are talking about now. It’s not all about you.

I know mate.
Yes mate, I know. (Name dropping much)
Yes mate, I know.
Although @AK_NEWS and @LiamP have followed me in my footsteps and started their own dream networks, they may be incapable of producing their own graphics using Microsoft PowerPoint. I am a keen graphic artist and I have created a set of logos for my own network. If they need me, they’ll be more than happy to do the graphics for them. For the last time, pal, please believe me.

It means to rely on someone or something or to believe that someone’s actions in general are trustworthy. And that’s what the statement means. I have lots and lots of generous support than criticism from people like you.

Now, folks. I have some notes to share with you (thanks to Lawrie Zion from La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia).
Hiring attractive women as weather presenters is a time-honoured global tradition. Writing about the history of TV weather in America, Robert Henson points out that it became clear in the 1950s that women could be accepted as weathercasters, as long as the focus was kept on clothing, hairstyle or anatomy. “So began the brief ascendancy of ‘weathergirls’, a term that speaks volumes about the differences in status between these women and their male counterparts in weathercasting.”
But while the weathergirl craze abated in the United States by the early 1960s, in Australia, where television had been introduced relatively recently, it was just beginning. In 1961, an item in the Bureau’s in-house publication, Weather News, noted that in Brisbane, “the majority of stations appear to favour the glamour-girl type of telecaster for weather presentations”, and that “Bureau staff have had the pleasure of indoctrinating and briefing two ‘Miss Australias’ and one ‘Miss Queensland’ in the short time that television has been operating in this State”.

The background training included explaining the need for weather information to be presented seriously and faithfully, “and particularly for the more glamorous the need to submerge their glamour behind the prosaic highs and lows”.
