News and Weather
One of the Seven Network’s requirement for the show was that it contain a small news update. This was presented by Jennifer Keyte in the first three years, who Vizard called the Newsreader with the Mostest. Naomi Robson was the newsreader in later years. The news also included a weather segment, traditionally not the most compelling television. On Tonight Live, high profile guests were used to present the weather including Bob Geldof, Ben Elton, Kylie Minogue, The Georgian Knife Throwers and Australian businessman and entrepreneur, Dick Smith (entrepreneur).

Famous quotes containing the words news and/or weather:
“Good news about someone never gets past the door, but bad news will travel a thousand leagues away.”
—Chinese proverb.
“It is never the thing but the version of the thing:
The fragrance of the woman not her self,
Her self in her manner not the solid block,
The day in its color not perpending time,
Time in its weather, our most sovereign lord,
The weather in words and words in sounds of sound.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
