Though the purchase of NRN by WIN was finalised on 31 May 2017, playout and transmission remained under Southern Cross' control until transferred to WIN on 1 September 2017. During this interim period, Southern Cross continued to produce local news updates for NRN. Since 1 September 2017, WIN News took over the production of 90 second local updates for NRN. Upon acquiring NRN, WIN has not launched or produced a local news bulletin for the region, citing changes to media landscape, decline in traditional television viewership, and due to their affiliation with Network 10.They do air WIN's All Australian News though, despite the fact that no local stories from Northern NSW and Gold Coast air on this bulletin.
