Controversies during Logies night
I’m very upset they're not here. We're sorry they're not here, Fergo and Mac, as they always do, put the Sydney News on first. I know their regrets not being here. It’s a shame.
The devastation of the 2016 Logies night that Seven's Sydney-based news and weather anchor Mark Ferguson and new sports anchor and Network Ten defector Mel McLaughlin, the winners of the Logie for Most Outstanding News Coverage for the Parramatta Shooting were not present to accept the award personally. TV Week had about a week’s prior knowledge that they've been banned from attending because the Logies is on rival Nine (Ferguson is Sydney-based and is permanently contracted to Seven) – being told that Ferguson's commitments to the Sydney-based 6pm local news bulletin that throws production schedules into havoc and told off by the Sydney bulletin's office manager Chris Willis that both Ferguson and McLaughlin had to stay at Seven’s Martin Place news studios throughout the evening and overnight until dawn with Ferguson presenting the news updates for Sydney, breaking into Seven's long-running ad breaks. Seven had offered to work around these logistics if they could be assured that the Sydney News bulletin would've had won a Logie. TV Week, in the interests of maintaining the security of the Logies results, decided that such information could not be released to the news department in advance, even in the strictest confidence. The Logie was instead accepted on stage by their boss Rob Rashke.
