Who the ■■■■ cares? Seriously.
Then give it a while. “Ex tells all.”
Great. Dirty laundry about someone you don’t really care or know about who blurs the lines of the meaning of celebrity in the first place and it’s probably a load of bollocks anyway. That ■■■■ used to be confined to trash mags.
I used to enjoy watching the news, it was something i picked up off my old man, where dinner was always promptly at 6:00 and we sat down and ate while viewing/talking about things. It was short, sharp to the point and generally interesting even when they had the odd light hearted story and it was precision personified virtually working in order from local, international to sport, weather.
That all went out the window some time ago, but even more so when the nightly news stretched to an hour long.
Now it’s constant previews of what’s coming up in sport/weather, special interest stories which are really just paid ads and my personal fave viral video sensations. I mean they are not even trying and it ■■■■■ me no end.
Brian Naylor would be turning over in his grave you bastards. Take a good ■■■■■■■ hard look at yourselves. I can just feel the brain cells dying, if I want reality TV i will go out of my way to find it. Just give me the news with no BS.

I lost faith with 7 and 9 news when they started editorialising every. single. news story.
It's still as you remember on the ABC, .. and the full half hour is all news.
Just have to shift dinner time to 7.
Lol yeah, that’s probably why i never noticed it as much and the frustration has built up. I was watching ABC at 7 for awhile there.
But I get home bit earlier now and with little kids it’s better to eat earlier, clean up, muck around with them a bit and then get them ready for bed. That time is the only time we have them reasonably still & quite until much later in the evening.
I honestly get some news from here and the opinions/comments are actually much more insightful even when i don’t agree. Even watch a bit of the ABC 24 news channel on weekend mornings to catch up.
Yeah, sometimes I get home a bit late, and it would irk me a bit, despite ABC 24 having many 1/2 hour bulletins through the evening, because 7PM ABC Vic would of course deal with many Vic / Melbourne issues, that wouldn’t be reported in the National vers.
Once they got iView up & running, I emailed & rang them, asking why TF they didn’t have the state versions up for viewing? They said they intended to, and thankfully started probably 12 months ago. It’s good to have it on tap to watch at your leisure. If you were unaware, that’s the go.
Podcasts are good for more in depth news and the ABC investing a lot, but its site is not easy to navigate if searching for a specific podcast - and sometimes they are up late . I thing Tracey Holmrs said no weekend work for the techs on that score.
