GWN7 News
GWN7 News (previously known as Golden West News or GWN News) is GWN7's regional news service.[1] Its main 30-minute program, airing live at 5:30pm on weeknights before Seven News Perth, deals primarily with local news and current affairs. As of March 2012, GWN7 produces the only dedicated local news program for regional Western Australia.[2]
The bulletin is produced and broadcast from GWN7's main studios in Bunbury with reporters and camera crews also based at newsrooms in Perth, Albany, Kalgoorlie-Boulder, Karratha, Geraldton and Broome, Western Australia.
GWN7 News is currently presented by Noel Brunning and weather presented by Shauna Willis. Brunning was the main anchor until 2007, when he took long service leave to run for an independent seat in the Forrest electorate. After failing to win the seat, he resumed his role as news presenter. Shauna Willis presented during this time and continues to stand in for Brunning. Alex Cullen previously presented the sport segment for GWN7 News, before leaving to join Seven News Sydney.
