Matt Wordsworth last night presented his final bulletin at ABC News Queensland, after 20+ years with the broadcaster and 5 years in the anchor chair.

Across his career he has presented many of the ABC’s flagship programs including 7:30, Lateline, RN Breakfast, AM and PM and anchored several state election broadcasts.

“Thank you at home for watching, it’s been an absolute privilege and an honour. To work alongside Jenny (Woodward, weather presenter) has just been a highlight of my career. Long live public broadcasting, good night!” he said.

He departs to move into media and public relations.

  1. Yes, that was a shock. Knew nothing about his departure until he stepped towards Jenny at the end of the weather and announced that this was his last night as news reader and at the ABC. Good luck Matt at your new position at Blue Hills PR.
