Ground Zero!Wednesday 15 July 1998 By eBroadcast Staff and agencies.

Ground Zero, Ten's late night music show on a Saturday Night has lost it's main co-host, Jade Gatt. Delco Productions, Ground Zero's production company failed to speculate what was the cause of the sacking, but insiders say that the producers wanted to build the profile of the news co-host, Ugly Phil. Phil is one of Sydney's most famous Radio DJ's has already been
filing reports daily for the program. The other co-host, Penne Dennison remains in her position.
The main problem with Ground Zero is that the show relies on the interactive part on the show. That is, the show has computers linked to computer chat programs. Last Saturday Night, there was embarrassment during the show when the main chat server which is used, collapsed under all the pressure.
There was a rumour going out Sunday Night, that the main person in charge of the chat operation would be replaced and the whole operation being moved back to the old chat server (I hope u understand this). There is still problems on the old chat server though. You see, there is one person in particular, who goes by the nickname, Bratgirl (it's a nickname, not a real name) who thinks she runs the chat room, so the problem is, what
should Delco do?
