What’s this thing called again, a Wednesday?
Hey did you know, hey did you know: It’s TVQ’s 50th anniversary of news you know…
Do you recall, the start of 1990: when 10 was party to airing Nine’s dirty laundry: in a effort to lure to TVQ’s shores Paigey… Only to be gone at year’s end you see, along with many others sadly.
Ten in receivership, Paige long gone, Des McWilliam returns to read for four months on 1991’s dawn, including witnessing the Gulf War: with CNN beamed in through our doors… with a last minute shift due to aggregation’s course.
Another up and comer is brought to the desk, in April of that year: Marie Louise-Theile beginning a epic run here, with Glenn Taylor at six… and ultimately five.
Then come 1994, another would arrive: Tracey Spicer’s first few years, reading alongside Glenn while Marie-Louise tried to do a Jo Pearson you see.
Marie-Louise ultimately came home, just as Spicer was promoted, the big hope was Taylor and Theile would make the end of the century… but Glenn got a quip in ‘98 that cost him hugely. With Ray Wilkie retiring in '99, and a turn back to Geoff Mullins post-Glenn, what the new millennium had for TVQ’s news… was not a sure bet.
Welcome to the only Wednesday, Content Survey Live will observe in 2024: our first Wednesday CSL post in fact (dependent on how we judged it back then (before we moved to a same night model last year) Melbourne's second survey or was it Perth's second survey in 2022) since 2022.
Now, here's a look at the ground rules:
The ground rules in “The City with A Golden Anniversary” event are as follows:
-Local packaged stories count as marks: Those produced in Brisbane with a national angle do not count.
-If it was sourced overnight in Brisbane (replacing the “Live Cross”) by either a news crew or a pool, it will be marked once if it is a voiced over piece, and marked twice if a full story has resulted from it. We call this specific number each night, the "Ray Robinson Number".
-Local sports stories count regardless of whether the sports reporter shows their face.
-And, a encouragement for 10 to return their bulletin home to Queensland. Weather will count in this Content Survey Live event.
In addition, all marks will be totalled, and local stories, sport and voiced over content will be compared with the Great Local News Study results of 2019 at the end of the week.
As well: For the first time ever for a Content Survey Live series entry: our paper surveys will also be available to peruse.
Let us begin the third night, of a very special Content Survey Live event...
We open up the post-budget bulletin with a national story as a lead again, followed by a Brisbane-specific spin on the federal budget (with a Logan family), followed by a day old story on a fire in Dutton Park (which missed deadline yesterday), arrests over a Mango Hill fire, demolition day at a flood buyback property in Goodna, and a story about the completion of the refurbishment of the Parliamentary Annexe.
No overnight news or V/O'd pool footage was used in tonight's bulletin.
Meanwhile, sport tonight, got a brief mention in the first window, with the David Fifita contract renewal at the Gold Coast Titans (replayed in the actual sports window, with a addition of Wayne Bennett contract rumors). The actual sports window included a piece on tomorrow's first Womens State of Origin, and a brief piece on this weekend's Suns V Cats match in Darwin.
The scores:
Five local stories (not even a live report in sight.)
No overnight news/V/O'd stories.
Tonight's "Ray Robinson Number" is 0.
Weather was at 5:22 and pre-6pm.
Three sports pieces (inc. one in the main window)
A Flood of Memories: 1974 revisited:
(thanks to some Brisbane Telegraph and Sunday Sun microfiche over at SLQ)
The two big stories for today’s front page: are quite simply, a inquiry into Queensland’s jail system, and one that would seem really scary at the time (especially with how Brisbane Airport looked at this time) about potential hijack attempts on aircraft.
Meanwhile, a big retail announcement for Fortitude Valley: that next Monday, was the opening date for Target’s next Queensland location (after opening at Westfield Toombul and Indooroopilly, Myer Chermside and Brookside: all (bar Toombul (which had a on-off love affair with Target) and the Valley store of course) still trading today, and all in different locations within their centres than they were originally opened in)… occupying part of the former David Jones/TC Beirne store on Brunswick Street.
