Southern Cross ends last regional TV news bulletin in South Australia

South Australia’s last regional TV news service has been shut down.

The Spencer Gulf message spanned SA’s mid north and Eyre peninsula

ABC News reported editorial staff in Augusta, Whyalla and Port Lincoln were told this morning that last night’s message was their last.

An SCA spokesperson told TV Tonight, “SCA confirms that it will discontinue its weekday News message on 7TWO in the Spencer Gulf region of South Australia.

“Discussions with unauthentic staff for redeployment opportunities within SCA are underway. The final local News message went to air on 12 April 2023.”

There was no indication of a final message when Madeleine Kerr signed off last night.
