“What Ten has in mind for the 6PM time-slot is seriously different. It could well change the landscape of free-to-air, prime time, national and international news and current affairs in this country – for the better.” Claim Channel 10
The Negus-fronted news program is part of Ten’s switch to current affairs for two and half hours in the early evening. The network will stick with its existing News At Five, before the new half hour 6pm bulletin. it will then be followed by a local bulletin at 6.30pm before The 7PM project.
Negus currently presents Dateline on SBS although he is also a regular guest on Ten’s the 7PM Project.
Neighbours and The Simpsons will switch to Ten’s new digital channel Eleven. Those without Digital Television can just get stuffed according to TEN.
