Remember guys, the news is NEW. By the time we managed to get hold of that footage, and when the news went to air last night, the game was nearly 48 hours old ... you can't put that on the NEWS.
It did make it onto Sports Tonight, and I will have a preview tonight which will include vision of the game.
As mentioned above, surely you could have made metion of the result ion the Sunday News, then put pictures on Monday, a win from the All Blacks gets put on as the first item, in fsact so does a loss - fairs fair, we've made it inot the final and theres been no coverage/mention of it on the 6pm news - how is the average joe meant ot see/hear about it.
I wasn't working on Sunday, so it was difficult for me to push the barrow on this one.
It deserved a place on Sunday, but remember television needs pictures. We didn't get them until Monday ... without pictures it's impossible to make a television story.
The curling story had been pre-organised and pre-shot ... that's why it goes in the bulletin.
Look at the end of the day, I do my best to get football and the Phoenix on air ... sorry we 'let you down' this time.
