Robert Edward Brough (born 1955) is an Australian journalist, television presenter and rugby league coach. Media career Radio Brough began his media career in radio in the 1970s as an announcer at radio station 4VL in Charleville, Queensland. He then moved onto 4WK in Warwick, 4BC in Brisbane and then 4GG on the Gold Coast, Queensland. Sports Journalism Following on from his radio work, Brough moved into television in the mid 1980s, covering sport for ABC Television in Brisbane before moving over to Channel 9 to present the sports news on National Nine News in Brisbane until 1989. Family Feud In 1990, Brough moved away from news reporting when he joined the Channel 7 in Brisbane to host the Australian version of Family Feud, which was seen nationally. Brough hosted the program until 1995 when John Deeks took over until its axing in 1996. Bert Newton and Grant Denyer have both hosted revived versions of the program for the Nine Network and Network Ten respectively. In an opinion piece written for the Sydney Morning Herald, Dominic Knight claimed Bert's Family Feud, the 2006 version of the program, was an awful show but not just because it brought back "unpleasant memories of Rob Brough". Brough was often parodied by Steve Vizard on Seven's sketch comedy show Fast Forward. Seven News Following his job as the host of Family Feud, Brough moved back into news for Seven's regional Queensland affiliate Sunshine Television on the Sunshine Coast. Shortly after Brough joined, Sunshine Television News became Seven News following the purchase of Sunshine Television by Seven and as such, the network's name and look changed to reflect the metropolitan Channel 7 stations. Initially, Brough presented the local Sunshine Coast edition of Seven News and pre-recorded two additional bulletins for the Wide Bay-Burnett region and the Mackay region. Since then, Seven's regional news output in Queensland has increased and Brough now presents seven separate local editions of Seven News each weeknight from the network's Sunshine Coast studio, which all air simultaneously across the individual regions at 6pm each weeknight on Channel 7, and then repeated at 6:30pm on 7two. Brough is joined by Joanne Desmond as a co-presenter on the Cairns, Townsville, Central Queensland and Darling Downs editions of Seven News, while Brough continues to present the Mackay, Wide Bay and Sunshine Coast editions by himself.
