News Weekly is an Australian current affairs magazine published by the National Civic Council, a conservative Christian lobby group. Its main headquarters are in Balwyn, Victoria,[1][2] with offices also in Queensland, New South Wales, Western Australia and South Australia.[3]

History and profile

[edit | edit source]

News Weekly was founded by B. A. Santamaria and first published in September 1943, under the name Freedom. It later changed its name to Australia's national news-weekly,[3] and adopted its current name in 1946–47.[4][5][6][7]

News Weekly adheres to the five primacies[8] of the National Civic Council: "natural family as the basic unit of society", decentralisation, "integrity of the individual", patriotism, and "Judeo-Christian virtues".[3]

According to the Kempsey Library listing, News Weekly provides analysis of current cultural, social, political, educational, and economic trends in Australia, focusing on ethics.[9]

In 1955, it had a circulation of 30,000 copies.[10]

Associated groups include the Thomas More Centre and the Australian Family Association.[3]
