Not 100% sure, just seemed odd to me that the English was Tasmania, but the Palawa Kani was Hobart…

I am sure the good folk at the ABC bunker in Hobart, accessed the speed dial on the desk phone and and called the Tasmanian Aboriginal Corporation to get the tick off…

Why is it written as nipaluna and not Nipaluna?

Well ABC News NT mentions Larrakia Country which is just the Darwin region and not all of the NT. Same for SA and Kurna country. It’s the immediate region they are broadcasting from.

palawa kani doesn’t use capital letters.

Time for a new set, or at the very least a proper professional lightwell style loop.

Lots of information in this year’s Digital News Report report. Just to pull out one piece of information -

ABC CONSOLIDATES ITS POSITION AS TOP OFFLINE AND ONLINE NEWS BRAND

ABC News is the most accessed offline news brand by Australians, followed by free-to-air TV news services
(Channel 7, 9 and TEN) (see table 4.1). The top five TV news brands have remained relatively stable since last year.

I thought below the auto cue they had a live shot of what is currently on air.

Both NT presenters Eleni Roussos and Amy Culpitt are on tonight’s NT bulletin.

Eleni is in the studio and Amy is joining coverage at Darwin Waterfront.
