About Us
First published on February 8, 1952, the NT News has been serving the people of the Northern Territory for more than 60 years.
The NT News represents the people of the Territory with fair, investigative and quirky journalism. We encourage our readers to interact with us across different platforms so we can campaign to improve and celebrate the Territory way of life. The NT News is unconventional, bold, unique and unashamedly Territorian, and allows readers to escape the daily grind and to be informed while also enjoying the lighter side of life.
The NT News reaches more than 64,000 people each day Monday – Friday, and the Saturday edition of the NT News is the highest circulating paper of the week. Liftouts in Saturday’s NT News such as Property, Career One, Carsguide, Marine Guide and the investigative journalism feature ‘Saturday Extra’ ensure there is something for everyone.
The Sunday Territorian is the sister paper to the daily NT News and is the only dedicated Sunday newspaper in the Northern Territory. The Sunday Territorian features great content such as Body + Soul, Taste, Escape, Hooked Up and Bushranger, and reaches more than 43,000 readers every Sunday.
ntnews.com.au is the largest news website in the Northern Territory, and in 2012 ntnews.com.au was optimised for mobile, giving readers the opportunity to access Territory news on the move.
The NT News and The Sunday Territorian are also available in digital edition replica format.
