Network 10 has confirmed that journalist and presenter Georgie Tunny will anchor the network’s weekend news bulletin from 2026.
Tunny’s appointment follows the departure of Chris Bath, who announced last month she would leave Network 10 at the end of 2025.
Bath, who joined the network in 2023, said she was stepping back from nightly news to pursue new opportunities and rebalance her workload.
Her decision created one of the network’s most significant newsroom vacancies – one 10 has now been filled with Tunny.
A familiar face steps up
Tunny, well known to audiences through her work across The Project, ABC, Flash, Fox Sports, and national radio, has become one of the country’s most versatile storytellers. She has worked across breaking news, sport and entertainment, and built a strong cross-platform profile.
In a statement, Tunny said she was looking forward to the role: “The trust the viewers, the News team, and the wider Network 10 community have shown in me throughout my career is incredibly gratifying. I can’t wait to get started and deliver the news that matters with integrity and heart in 2026.”
Martin White, VP News, Paramount Australia, said Tunny was a natural fit for the bulletin.
“Georgie is a great journo and presenter, and we’re lucky to have her at 10 News. She’ll do a brilliant job, helping us break down the big stories of the day for Australians every Saturday and Sunday, with her trademark warmth and down-to-earth demeanour.”
