Bit of a personal anniversary for me today. It's been two years since I quit alcohol and cut out suger/salt/processed foods from my diet. Currently sitting 40kg lighter than what I was two years ago.
I do find it hilarious the way certain football fans blame
@Foxtel
for the failings of
@ALeague
Foxtel invested millions and produced a high quality broadcast. The
@FFA
completely squandered the opportunity they were provided.
A lot of people rushed to judgment today. The reality is very different when you watch the full video.
I’ve always found
@BasilZempilas
to be a thoroughly decent and respectful person. And class will always win out!

@Channel7
airing The Sound Of Music yet again tonight. Lost count of how many times it, and Casablanca have had a run recently... and they wonder why viewers have given up on FTA TV.
RATINGS | Sunday mornings Australia vs Argentina clash was watched by a national audience of 1.7 million Australians. (964k metro)
Data includes metro+regional FTA markets and streaming via

Its true, Lee Lin Chin will read her final SBS World News bulletin this Sunday, but the good news is
@AntonEnus
is returning to
@SBS
after nearly two years successful battling bowel cancer in September to present two bulletins a week.
Sadly the
@aleaguemen
is just not working on FTA TV this year. Ratings last night were so low it caused
@Channel10AU
to finish as the 11th most watched channel of the night.
10's multi-channels had more viewers than the main channel last night.
#aleague
Between the hacking and Peter Hitchener becoming unwell it would have been an extremely stressful bulletin for the team at
@9NewsMelb
tonight. But
@cstanaway
did an outstanding job and everyone involved should be congratulated for holding it together.
@JaneCaro
@cswarris_27
Nope, he is taking the piss out of his mate Michael Genovese because he is getting the opportunity to read the news on a night when millions will be watching the tennis. Michael is “the reserves”. Not the tennis.
On this day 12 months ago I quit Twitter (that only lasted 9 months).
On the same day I quit Alcohol and slashed my sugar consumption, and that's something I have stuck too.
Happy to report it hasn't been as tough as I feared it might be. Now 35kg lighter and feeling great.
Gotta say I adore 'Margaret from Sunbury'. She is the cheeky Grandmother that all us middle-aged blokes wish we still had. She brings the world back into perspective every Saturday.

Mark Howard once again reminding everyone why he is the best interviewer in the country. Just makes this look so effortless.

The big lesson from this election. People living in regional Australia really don’t appreciate being lectured about climate change by those living in concrete cities.

Eddie McGuire has just confirmed afternoon quiz format Millionaire Hot Seat has been axed after 25 years with
@Channel9
- Last episode will air in January.
15 years today since we lost Clinton Grybas.
A young man whom I honestly believe was on the verge of becoming one of the greatest sports broadcasters this country has ever seen.

#AFL
The ABC has announced every game of the upcoming
@ALeague
season will be broadcast live nationally on
@ABC_NewsRadio
, and will be streamed live on the ABC listen app. ABC will also introduce a 1 hour Friday night preview program.
@FFA
CONFIRMED:
@Crocmedia
has purchased 23 narrowband radio licences across Australia including Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Gold Coast, Darwin and Alice Springs. The move will see
@1116sen
and other Crocmedia content broadcast nationally.

@damonheraldsun
loves to boast it was
@theheraldsun
who originally exposed the sins of Pell. Yet he also continues to sanction this deplorable attack on the journalist who wrote the story. Utter Disgrace.
Andrew Bolt is now using his widely syndicated Monday
@theheraldsun
column to defend Pell by attacking my work and naming me personally. His claim that I was leaked a bugged phone call between Pell and a priest is utterly laughable and wrong.Great editing
@damonheraldsun
#FALLEN
I can now confirm
@Channel7
and
@Foxtel
have secured AFL broadcast rights for the next 9 years.
2 years of existing deal + 7 years of new deal.
@AFL
will announce full details at 3pm.
@TV_Blackbox
I can appreciate why
@Channel9
made the decision to switch to news but that speech from Dylan Alcott was incredible television and should be compulsory viewing for every child in this country.
#AusOpen
So
@TheTodayShow
is promoting a LIVE interview with one of those Bunnings Mask Deniers.
Not sure we should be giving these people any more screentime. They really are desperate for attention
Despite this ongoing media narrative that
@BBL
is doomed. Interesting to note Saturday nights massively rain effected match still achieved a national average audience of 1.2 million people across
@channel7
and
@FoxCricket
KAYO has announced it will achieve the milestone of 1 Million paid subscribers this weekend.
Recent rapid growth has come from the Telstra Live Pass deal and strong ratings for NRL and AFL.
Eddie McGuire is not a racist, but yes be did say a stupid racist thing. If you want to direct you're anger towards someone, go back and read the bile Andrew Bolt & Rita Panahi were publishing at the time.
#TheFinalQuarterFilm
#AdamGoodes
Last night’s game achieved an unprecedented average audience of 7.13 million included a national broadcast audience of 6.17 million viewers on Seven (4.5 million in the capital cities) and another 957,000 viewers on 7plus.

@Channel7
April Fools Day tomorrow.
Really hoping media outlets give this tiresome, tedious concept a wide berth. Seriously there is enough fake news circulating at the moment without this BS.
Just catching up on this weeks
#TheCheapSeats
. The entertainment segment featuring Love Island will go down as some of the funniest tv I have seen this year.
@TheTimMcDonald
@meladoodle
Huge launch for
@masterchefau
last night – 1.56 million nationally, peaking at 1.82 million.
Across the five capital cities, the launch achieved an average national audience of 1.23 million, peaking at 1.34 million.
Biggest launch since 2015.
#Masterchefau
Can confirm the new broadcast deal is valued at $4.5 Billion in cash and contra over the 7 year extension. The bulk of the increase in rights fees will be played by the Foxtel Group.

So
@ABCmediawatch
shows the Laidley photo at the start of this video, but then blurs it out later while questioning if it was ethical for other outlets to use it???? You just showed it!!!

New cricket broadcast deal will see
@channel7
secure digital rights for the first time on 7plus.
Overall the network will be paying 15% less than current deal due to the reduction in number of Big Bash matches being played each season.
Oz Media coverage of "Trolley Man" has been an absolute disgrace, both in the attempt to build an obviously flawed individual into a "Hero" & now the attempt to paint him as an evil villain. He's just a guy who sometimes makes good choices, and sometimes bad. A very common tale.
#MAFS
is obviously a ratings blockbuster for
@Channel9
, but I can't help feeling the producer's are over cooking it this year. It's all so obvious and shallow, and eventually viewers will say enough is enough.
Obviously this is a situation where blame sits entirely on the shoulders of Chris Smith. He has a habit of appalling behaviour.
But I do have to wonder if the management at Sky ever thought about tapping him on the shoulder and saying maybe give the Xmas party a miss this year
CONFIRMED:
@SkyNewsAust
has officially terminated the employment of broadcaster Chris Smith.
His sacking comes after a similar decision by Nine Radio earlier today.
