A new weekly TV news service about Seventh-day Adventists in the South Pacific has started on July 27. It is called Adventist News. Viewers will be able to watch the three to five minutes long Adventist News on the internet each week.
People who have iTunes will be able to subscribe to the weekly news service for free and watch it on their iPods and MP4 players. Produced by the "Adventist Media" Network, this initiative will deliver the news very quickly. Each weekly bulletin will be available on Friday and will remain there for one week. It will contain seven or eight stories. The news will be presented in a format that will be clearly understood by viewers that are not Adventist.
"Adventist Media" is the broadcast production facility for the Adventist Church in the South Pacific. Its services provided include television, radio and satellite, together with cutting edge audio-visual products, corporate reports, drama, musical productions, graphics, special effects and public presentations. Adventist Media also acts as a producer for other Christian organisations, in addition to working directly with commercial businesses.
Seventh-day Adventists in Australia first began to broadcast on radio in 1935, on television in 1956 and on satellite in 1996.
