    February 27 2008 9:31pm (UTC+8)  -  Article by Slj

    Narelda Jacobs has been chosen as the new anchor for Ten News Perth. In May this year, the bulletin, which is currently presented in Sydney, will move back to its former studios in Perth.

    Jacobs has been with Ten since 2000, most currently as a court reporter.

    Ten Perth news director Chris Hunt says, "Narelda is very much part of the fabric of Ten News in Perth and has made a major contribution as a senior reporter. We are looking forward to her joining Tim Gossage and Michael Schultz on air later in the year."

    Simon Martin, general manager of Ten Perth added, "Narelda has honed her journalism skills, is a very popular staff member and Ten is delighted to give this local opportunity to one of our own."

    Prior to starting at Ten, Jacobs worked for Golden West News in WA's south-west after graduating from the WA Academy of Performing Arts.

    She has previously presented the weather segment on Ten News in previous summer periods.

    It wouldn't matter who got the gig and whether they presented solo or paired up, they have their work cut out.

    Reece appears happy to be at TVW. I couldn't see him jumping ship to Ten :unsure:


    Reece is under utilized at TVW. Isn't their news director a bit dodgy anyway. He'd jump at the chance to move, unless he decides to rot in the corridors at TVW doing police rounds and special reports!!

    Im sure Ten would throw big bucks at him. I reckon him being on Ten would develop him further as a presenter.

    I'm not sure Narelda is the best choice for presenter. I don't have anything against her, but I don't think she's up to that level yet. Every time I see her in a live cross she always seems to stumble and make mistakes. She isn't someone I would have appointed presenter until she improves.


    I think she is fine. I mean look at Rick Ardon he began presenting in his early 20s and made shit loads of mistakes as Ive seen on old tapes. (30th year at TVW btw!!)

    She's definately more experienced than he was when he started.

    Not many presenters can follow in the foot steps of the likes of Celina and Charmaine.
