Sports Tonight
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- CNN in the U.S. aired a show called Sports Tonight (also known as CNN/Sports Illustrated) from 1980 to 2001. This article is about a show in Australia.
Sports Tonight is a sports information program shown on Network Ten in Australia. The program is broadcast on Monday-Thursday at 10.30pm (combined with Ten News), Friday at 12.20am (Late Edition) and Saturday-Sunday at 5.30pm (Weekend Edition). The program provides up-to-date sports scores and team and player information for all codes of football and different sports across Australia.
The show has been running since 1993. From 2003 until 2005, the show ran for half an hour on each weeknight instead of being combined with Ten's Late News, which started in 1996. There has been criticism by viewers that Sports Tonight is not long enough, and that it should have been left as how it was.
