News and Current Affairs
Seven’s commitment to bringing all Australians the best and most up-to-date news and current affairs will increase in 2025, with a new hour-long 12 noon bulletin.
It comes on the back of Seven adding an extra half hour to The Morning Show, which will now run from 9am to noon.
They will join Seven’s other leading news and current affairs programs, from Australia’s #1 nightly news program 7NEWS and the #1 breakfast show Sunrise to 7NEWS Spotlight , Weekend Sunrise and The Latest from 7NEWS.
Seven Network Director of News and Current Affairs and Seven West Media Editor-in-Chief, Anthony De Ceglie, said: “In an increasingly dystopian world of conspiracy theorists and deepfakes and misinformation, our journalism has never been more important.
“On any given day, 10 of the 24 hours on Seven are proudly produced by the 7NEWS team, from Sunrise and The Morning Show to our morning, afternoon, prime-time 6.00pm and late-night bulletins, plus 7NEWS Spotlight on Sunday nights. 7NEWS.com.au is one of the most popular news sites in the country and there is also Australia’s only digital evening newspaper, The Nightly.”
Mr De Ceglie said Australian audiences had never been more engaged with news and current affairs, as shown by The Morning Show co-host Larry Emdur winning the TV WEEK Logie Awards Gold Logie this year.
He said the new hour-long 12 noon bulletin would be a game-changer that would not only look at breaking news headlines but also have room for in-depth discussion and debate.
“We know audiences are changing. The race for eyeballs has never been more crowded. We’re producing modern and dynamic content for high value audiences that have never been more engaged or informed with the news,” Mr De Ceglie said.
