I hope Matt white is leaving TT on his own accord .. He is such alovely bloke and I wish him well in all that he does …
I will miss seeing himat 6.30 week nights ..
I wish you well Matt …
Kind regards
Great career move. Never could work out why he did Today Tonight.
Sorry Matt, u should’ve done this ages ago. I agree you seem nice and im
Sure youll have a top career but you fronted too many stories that took advantage of the weak and I know many that won’t forget that. It’s more important than a pay packet.
Meh
Sorry to see you go Matt you did a great job how about helping the morning show out and take larrys place .
He was the only reason i would ever watch Today Tonight.. Thought he was a huge improvement over the past brunette and blonde glamourpusses.
I can’t watch Anna Coren on CNN Intl without grimacing
We didn’t see him on the Adelaide Editions so no loss there.I wonder what will fill the place next year.In an Ideal World 6:30pm Family Guy,How I Met Your Mother or American Dad In Reality Most likely an extended news bulletin like the 4:30pm moves there and the 6pm stays as it is and 4 to 5pm goes back to being a full on Kids Hour of Shows.
very sorry to see you go i just hope you didnt get a shove from management like mike munro did , i wish you all the best for your future .kind regards helen
I thought Helen Kapalos had already been appointed to Today Tonight!
My fave show. I’m gutted he’s going. He was brill. Everyone west of parramatta will be in shock.
