WIN News

Nine might have scheduled it that way to allow WIN to swap it out.

I Dream of Jeannie is Mon-Fri on 9Go! at 5.30pm - 6.00pm

Looks like WIN News is coming back to Mildura according to an article In the Sunraysia Daily & I heard that it’s coming back to Griffith as well:

Agree & for the Riverland as well.

Is it the full 30 minute bulletin that’s making a return, or is it simply a headlines update as what Prime7 had done over the last couple of years?

Based on other users’ comments, most of WIN’s bulletins are now filled with hyper local stories from other regions.

How much of the content will actually feature Mildura? Or will the bulletin be “Mildura” in name only?

It is a full 30 minute bulletin. Don’t expect anything special though.

The words “special” and “WIN News” do not go hand in hand.

I noticed this week that WIN are running a news update that airs around 10:30pm. The music base is the Nine News 2000s theme

Gosh, they are really due for a graphics refresh…

Why does it not surprise me WIN haven’t updated their graphics in close to 20 years?

The graphics I don’t mind the music in the background is too loud and distracts from the content.

It’s probably nothing but the last few weeks I’ve seen them using new (albeit generic) versions of the “File Vision” or “Exclusive” straps.

The entire graphics pack is so mixed matched…

Bring a dedicated hyper-local bulletin back to Ballarat/Western VIC.

More like 7 years, but still the oldest news graphics on television :wink:

This gives WIN a point of difference for advertisers in the area given the loss of TEN. Great to see some life in regional news.

WIN News is a bare bones operation, they have the ability to open newsrooms with 1 VJ on uni graduate wages so I don’t see much reasoning on why they shouldn’t provide bulletins for the rest of their broadcast area.

Not really the 7 news updates will probably be more local and informative about local issues.

I expect local intro. A few local one line story read mostly without footage replacing the current Bendigo ones. And local weather rather than the currently Bendigo Central victoria weather that added Mildura in afterwards. Is anyone new being hired in Mildura? Are they getting a reporter on the ground?

Win News is unwatchable in most if not all areas this will be no difference

IIRC, Mildura has received the Central Victoria bulletin since the 2021 relaunch of the generic “state-focused” bulletins. Is this right?

Do Mildura stories feature in this bulletin? And likewise for Griffith stories featuring in the combined Riverina & MIA bulletin?

You are spot on. There is no local journo
