The network's Director of News and Current Affairs is Darren Wick.
National bulletins
Nine News: Early Edition
Nine News: Early Edition is a half-hour bulletin airing at 5:00am on weekdays, presented from the network's Sydney studios by various presenters.
The bulletin was originally pre-recorded and was presented as the "AM Edition" of the Qantas Inflight News, a daily news bulletin for passengers of Qantas airways. Early morning bulletins were introduced in the early 1990s as Daybreak and, later, National Nine Early News until 2003 when Today was extended to begin at 6am. The Early News resumed for a brief time at 6am in 2005 and was presented by Sharyn Ghidella and Chris Smith before again being cancelled. Amber Sherlock and Alicia Loxley have previously presented the bulletin. In mid-2014, Julie Snook replaced Belinda Russell to present. After two years in the role, Julie Snook was promoted to the sports department and Lara Vella replaced her.
In October 2014, a new era of the bulletin launched with its contract ending with Qantas. The bulletin was renamed Nine News: Early Edition with a dedicated 9news.com.au news feed on the right of screen, finance and weather flipper at the bottom, a look-ahead to Today and the presenter taking up less than three-quarters of the screen. There was a look at the newspaper front pages which showed the front pages of the two Sydney and Melbourne papers, The Australian, The Courier Mail and The Advertiser. There was even a live cross in which the bulletin prior to October was pre-recorded. Sylvia Jeffreys, Kate Creedon, Vicky Jardim and Tim Davies are fill-in presenters.

Henderson retired in November 2002, with then Sunday and weekend presenter Jim Waley taking over as weeknight anchor. Despite winning the 2003 and 2004 ratings seasons,[9] Waley was replaced three years later by weekend presenter Mark Ferguson,[10] after which National Nine News started to lose its long-time ratings lead in Sydney to the rival Seven News.
Peter Overton became Nine's main Sydney anchor in January 2009, with Ferguson returning to his former weekend role[11] (replacing Michael Usher and his predecessor Mike Munro[12]) for seven months until his decision to leave for the Seven Network saw him replaced by Georgie Gardner.[13]

Hall scaled back her work with Nine to news updates and fill-in duties in November 2011, with Weekend Today newsreader Alicia Loxley taking over as weekend presenter.

Bruce Paige and Heather Foord co-anchored the 6pm bulletin from 1995 until 2001, when Foord joined Mike London as a weekend anchor and Jillian Whiting replaced her on weeknights. London resigned in June 2003 after allegations emerged that he had organised a female friend to complain about the presentation of weeknight anchor Bruce Paige.[16] Foord and Whiting swapped positions in 2004 with Melissa Downes taking over as weekend anchor in 2006. Despite these position changes, to this day Nine News Brisbane continues to retain a long-standing ratings lead ahead of Ten Eyewitness News Brisbane and Seven News Brisbane.
Foord resigned as weeknight anchor on 5 December 2008[17] and was replaced by Melissa Downes on weeknights with Eva Milic and former ABC newsreader Andrew Lofthouse fronting weekend bulletins. A year later, Bruce Paige retired from the weeknight chair (he was replaced by Lofthouse) and Heather Foord returned to present weekend bulletins solo for two years. Paige returned to full-time newsreading in January 2012, fronting Nine Gold Coast News solo until he was paired with Wendy Kingston in July 2016.

In September 2016, the bulletin moved into a new studio, alongside launching new graphics.
Darwin
Nine News Darwin is presented from the network's NTD-8 Darwin studios by Jonathan Uptin on weeknights and Amy Culpitt on weekends. Sport is presented by Jake Hauritz on weeknights. The 6pm bulletin is also simulcast on local radio station Territory FM.
Regional bulletins
Gold Coast
Nine Gold Coast News is a regional news service for the Gold Coast, presented by Bruce Paige and Wendy Kingston, sport is presented by Dominique Loudon and weather is presented by Courtney Pattinson. The bulletin airs at 5:30pm on weeknights as an opt-out broadcast on QTQ-9's Gold Coast transmitters, before the main 6pm Brisbane edition of Nine News. Produced from the network's studios at Surfers Paradise, Nine Gold Coast News is also simulcast on local Gold Coast radio station Juice107.3. Darren Curtis and Dominique Loudon are the main fill-in news presenters, with Libby Stone and Luke Bradnam fill-in weather presenters.
Previous presenters of the bulletin have included Karl Stefanovic, Natalie Gruzlewski, Rob Readings, Jillian Whiting, Carly Waters, Frank Warrick, Melissa Downes and Eva Milic. Paul Burt presented the weather until he joined Seven News Brisbane in 2013.
Until the launch of the rival Seven News Gold Coast service in July 2016,[19] Nine was the only network to produce a local bulletin for the Gold Coast, and was thus unchallenged in the ratings.
News affiliation with Southern Cross Austereo
As part of the affiliation relationship formed between Nine and Southern Cross Austereo in 2016, local news bulletins will be gradually rolled out on Southern Cross' regional Nine stations in 2017 in Queensland, Australian Capital Territory, southern New South Wales and Victoria.[20]
In August 2016, the director of Nine's news & current affairs division, Darren Wick announced that Queensland news director Mike Dalton had been appointed to head the new Nine News Regional division to initiate Nine and Southern Cross Austereo's new regional news service in 2017.[21]
At Nine's 2017 Program Launch held at Sydney's Star Casino in November 2016, the three presenters of Nine's regional bulletins were announced. Former WIN News presenter Samantha Heathwood will present the regional Queensland edition of Nine News, former ABC News Breakfast weather presenter Vanessa O'Hanlon will anchor the ACT and southern New South Wales edition while former Nine News Melbourne presenter Jo Hall will be the face of the regional Victorian edition. The bulletins will be presented from Nine's existing studio facilities in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne.[22][23]
According to Dalton, Canberra will be the first market to see the new NSW/ACT edition of Nine News bulletin in the first week of February 2017, before rolling out to Wollongong in the second week, followed by a Central West bulletin for Orange, Bathurst and Dubbo in the third week, and Wagga Wagga in the fourth week.[22]
Regional Victorian markets to receive their own bulletins are Ballarat, Bendigo, an Albury and Shepparton bulletin, and Gippsland. Regional Queensland markets to receive their own bulletins are Cairns, Townsville, Mackay, Rockhampton, Wide Bay, Toowoomba, and Sunshine Coast.[20]
The regional bulletins will be similar to NBN News, the nightly bulletin presented from Newcastle airing across northern New South Wales on Nine-owned NBN Television, as a combination of national, state and local content tailored to each individual market.[24]

The local New South Wales and ACT bulletins are presented from TCN-9's Sydney studios by Vanessa O'Hanlon, sport is presented by Mike Lorigan and weather is presented by Gavin Morris.
