TVBB S05E16 Spin, COVID and Sizzle

Published: June 1, 2021, 2:37 a.m.

It was a week where the industry faced more impacts from COVID-19, the ABC and Christian Porter went to war on the PR front and Channel 10 delivered some sizzle for their upcoming shows

 

There’ sone thing certain when it comes to the Australian television industry – it’s always evolving and always changing.

 

Currently, each network is finding new ways to showcase their ratings performance and that makes it very difficult to find common ground on reporting methods – even the TVBB team disagree at times!
