Scott  said: “I’m very proud of the achievements of each staff member of the newsroom. They have been learning the right way to provide local news for the local market. I’ve really enjoyed my time here and am looking ahead to other opportunities.”

Brisbane General Manager Anthony Frangi said: “We would like to thank Scott for bringing his considerable news skills to 4BC and Magic 882 and helping us become a News leading station in Brisbane. He has built a great team of reporters who really know Brisbane and our local stories.  We wish Scott all the best for his future career. We will be making an announcement on his replacement shortly.”
