14 regional bulletins and news update services are presented from WIN's headquarters in Wollongong, and until 2021 included production of a national compilation programme shared between the city and Maroochydore.
As well as its flagship nightly bulletin, WIN Television has, in the past, produced a number of public affairs programmes at its original Wollongong station, WIN-4, such as community affairs program Roving Eye and Sunday Review, a weekly review of international, national and local stories.
[2] In June 2011, WIN axed its Tasmanian weekend bulletins and replaced them with simulcasts of the Melbourne evening news,[3] but were reintroduced a year later.
In April 2009, two regional bulletins were introduced in Queensland serving Mackay and the Whitsunday Islands and the Wide Bay area.
On 18 February 2013, WIN axed its pan-regional bulletin for the Mount Gambier and Riverland areas of South Australia.
Both bulletins prior to a few years ago were produced separately from the two newsrooms, but they wereboth filmed at the Mount Gambier studios.
In June 2013, WIN announced it would discontinue local production of its Canberra bulletin and move it to Wollongong, however the company's studios in Kingston continued to operate as a newsgathering base,[11] until it was sold and closed down a few years later, thus resulting in all staff being moved to a new office in the city.
In May 2015, in what was considered shocking closures, WIN axed its bulletins in Mildura, Victoria and Mackay, Queensland,[12] with staff at both newsrooms being impacted.
The decision was made in response to budget measures and a failure to catch up with Seven Local News in terms of ratings as well as poor advertising in the latter's case.
While all other WIN News bulletins moved to 6pm on 1 July 2016, their nightly bulletin moved to 5:30pm (30 minutes earlier than its leading rival Southern Cross News), making an attempt to replicate its composite newshour when they were a former Nine affiliate in the state.
Both programs are produced and broadcast from WIN's Wollongong headquarters with news gathering teams and camera crews based in Canberra.
WIN News produces one separate bulletin for the five regional Victorian markets, serving Ballarat, western Victoria, Bendigo, central Victoria, Shepparton, Border North East Albury and the Goulburn-Murray area, and Gippsland.
The bulletin is produced and broadcast from WIN's Wollongong headquarters with newsrooms also based in Ballarat, Bendigo, Shepparton and Traralgon.
The regional Victorian edition was broadcast at 12am from WIN's Ballarat Studios by alternating team of reporters/presenters.
90-second news updates were broadcast throughout the day on weekdays for two of the four markets in southern New South Wales and Border North East - Orange and the Central West, Wagga Wagga and the Riverina region and Albury and the Border North East.
90-second news updates were later broadcast on weekday evenings in the Limestone Coast and Riverland markets.
