Regardless of a win or loss tonight, what our Matilda’s have already achieved in this competition is world class, and what’s it’s doing for women’s sport in this country is truly remarkable. #TillItsDone #FIFAWWC

#BREAKING: Australian TV icon Bert Newton has died aged 83.

15 long weeks have finally come to an end. But, at this exciting time, I think it’s important to acknowledge all the frontline workers who have kept Sydney running. Without you, this moment in time would not be possible. Thank you for all the hard work you do. #SydneyLockdown

#BREAKING: NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has resigned.

@SydneyCityTV Yes, I have seen those Morning Crew TVCs. It just seems like a lazy marketing strategy to me. And the content was terrible too!

Re. the WSFM TVCs, I did happen to see one a few days ago and I actually laughed at it. Very funny campaign yet very fitting for J&A. Kudos to them.

@SydneyCityTV A couple years ago I would’ve disagreed about dropping such a heritage brand in favour of introducing a new one, but I think now there is no denying it. The 2DayFM brand is dead.

[SydComMedia @SydComMedia]

@SydneyCityTV What an abysmal result. The whole station is a train wreck. Such a shame.

[SydComMedia @SydComMedia]

Absolutely shocking news for the Australian media landscape. My thoughts are with everyone at 10 that has lost their job on this dark, dark day for the network 😢https://t.co/795teROkw2

[SydComMedia @SydComMedia]

@SydneyCityTV Yes, those old aisle signs and the laughably small fresh fruit and veg section are all things that you just don't see anymore.

[SydComMedia @SydComMedia]

The recent #DemocraticDebate on CNN was quite an interesting watch. Being filmed totally within a TV studio and without a live audience allows for a much more transparent conversation between the candidates. Here's an excerpt: https://t.co/mSmMGBCLxG

@SydneyCityTV That's unfortunate. I wonder what will happen to Liv Phyland. It's my understanding that the other show she presents, 10Travlr, has already been filmed. Hopefully she stays with Network 10 in some capacity - maybe a spot on Studio 10 or the 10 Daily team...

[SydComMedia @SydComMedia]

@SydneyCityTV Yes, absolutely! I’m not a fan of Seven’s generic sports backdrop either but they too manage to integrate an OTS graphic as well.

[SydComMedia @SydComMedia]

@SydneyCityTV Yeah, you’re probably right but, maybe it’s just me, I got a bit bored looking at the exact same backdrop all the time - especially since Nine News Sydney doesn’t do any OTS shots for sport like GTV do. At least with a live shot there’d be some movement (clouds and cars etc.).

[SydComMedia @SydComMedia]

@SydneyCityTV TBH, I actually like that backdrop. IMO all of Nine News’ updated backgrounds are an improvement on the old ones used. Especially the early & morning news backdrops. The graphics on the other hand, well that’s an entirely different story...

[SydComMedia @SydComMedia]

Wow, 30 years with Network 10 - what an achievement. Congratulations, @Sandra_Sully - an absolute star and the best in the business! #30YearsOfSullyness

[10 News Sydney @10NewsSyd]

It's pretty hard to sum up @Sandra_Sully's 30 years at @Channel10AU, so this just a glimpse of what she has achieved. And there is no better person to task with the job of congratulating her on this remarkable milestone than our very own @dailybailey10. #30YearsOfSullyness

[SydComMedia @SydComMedia]

@SydneyCityTV Yeah, a bit of a shakeup but nothing too major I think. Hughesy and Ed have good on-air chemistry so I think ratings will remain rather stable.
