Jennifer Anne Keyte (born 21 January 1960) is an Australian journalist and news presenter.
Keyte currently presents the Melbournes 10 News First. She was previously a weekend news presenter on Seven News in Melbourne.[1]
After graduating from St. Columba's College, Essendon, Keyte enrolled in a Bachelor of Arts degree at La Trobe University but left after her first year.[citation needed]
Her broadcasting career began with a cadetship at EON FM in 1980, the first commercial FM radio station in Australia. She later joined 3XY as a journalist and newsreader.[citation needed]
In 1982, Keyte switched to television, joining ATV-10's Eyewitness News in Melbourne, reporting on courts, crime and state politics. She worked briefly on Good Morning Australia and presented weekend bulletins.[1]
In 1987, Keyte moved to HSV-7 where she co-anchored Seven Nightly News alongside Glenn Taylor.[1] She also presented news on the late-night chat show Tonight Live with Steve Vizard.[1] At the end of 1995, Keyte resigned, reportedly after the network proposed to pair her on the 6pm news in Melbourne with former ATV-10 colleague David Johnston.[2]
In 1996, after a short stint at radio station 3AW, Keyte moved to Nine, hosting Good Medicine,[3] and Moment of Truth.[1] When Seven News ratings subsequently plunged further, Keyte refused their offers to return and stayed with Nine for several years.[citation needed]
In August 2003, she returned to the Seven Network, presenting the weekend news in Melbourne. This was a reversal of roles with Peter Mitchell, who previously anchored weekend news while Keyte was on weekdays.[citation needed] She has also filled in for Natalie Barr presenting the news on Sunrise, Seven Morning News and Seven 4.30 News.[citation needed]
In 2006, Keyte and others from Seven News were charged with and ultimately acquitted of contempt of court for allegedly publicising suppressed details of a Children's Court case.[citation needed]
In May 2018, Keyte rejoined Network Ten to present 10 News First Melbourne replacing Stephen Quartermain, who returned to his former role as sports presenter.[4]
In September 2020, Keyte began presenting the Adelaide edition of 10 News First following the transfer of studio production from Melbourne. She also continues to present the 5pm news in Melbourne.[5]
Keyte has two children. She and her husband, Ben Faggetter, separated in 2009 and later divorced.[6][7]
