Nine News (radio)

Nine News is a radio news service providing the half-hourly radio news bulletins to radio stations across Australia. ^[1]

History

On 16 September 2009, Macquarie Radio Network shut down its news website, livenews.com.au after two years of existence, citing poor financial returns.^[2]

In April 2015, following the merger of Macquarie Radio Network and Fairfax Radio Network,^[3] the newsroom of 2UE Sydney was closed and replaced with the 2 GB feed.^[4] Local bulletins on 3AW, 4BC and 6PR now take the Macquarie National News branding. This branding was retained until the renaming of Macquarie Media as Nine Radio in 2020.

In July, the newsroom shared between 1116 SEN and 3MP 1377 in Melbourne was closed, replaced with the Macquarie National News service from 3AW.^[5][6]

On 1 January 2020, the Macquarie service was replaced by Nine News, which commenced providing the half-hourly radio news bulletins to radio stations across Australia.^[1]
