Further information: Seven Local News

Seven Local News bulletins are broadcast each weeknight in Cairns, Townsville, Mackay, Central Queensland, Wide Bay, and the Sunshine Coast. They are followed by Seven News Brisbane, in place of Today Tonight.

The local news for all regions are recorded and formatted from the Maroochydore studios, with the Sunshine Coast being the only region to receive its news broadcast live. News editing is undertaken by local bureaus in several markets, and sent to the main Maroochydore studios for broadcast.

Between 2004 and 2005, the Fraser Coast office/news bureau for production and news staff were relocated to a smaller office in Hervey Bay.

On 5 March 2007, Seven Local News bulletins commenced production and broadcasts in a widescreen standard-definition digital format. Seven Local News was the first local news bulletin in regional Queensland to convert to widescreen.

On 22 November 2010, Seven Local News launched a sixth bulletin into the Rockhampton and Central Queensland region.

Seven Local News is directed by Rex Clark and Sally Young with bulletins presented by Rob Brough. Joanne Desmond co-anchors the Cairns, Townsville and Rockhampton bulletins. Nathan Spurling presents sport with Livio Regano presenting the local weather.

Famous quotes containing the word news:

    Reporters are not paid to operate in retrospect. Because when news begins to solidify into current events and finally harden into history, it is the stories we didn’t write, the questions we didn’t ask that prove far, far more damaging than the ones we did.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    News of battle! News of battle!
    Hark. ‘Tis ringing down the street
    And the archways and the pavement
    Bear the clang of hurrying feet.
    News of battle. Who has brought it?
    William Edmonstoune Aytoun (1813–1865)

    Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to the whole creation.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 16:15.

    Jesus.
