A whole 9News Melbourne bulletin, date and all, draws a crowd

Tuesday's complete news program from Melbourne quickly outgrew a normal first day, even though the channel as a whole was running below its usual daily pace.

9News Melbourne | Tuesday 29 September | Full Bulletin

No single clip, no highlights. "9News Melbourne | Tuesday 29 September | Full Bulletin" is exactly what the title promises: the entire Melbourne news program for that day, posted in one piece. Sixteen hours after it went up, it had passed 200,000 views.

That is well outside the usual rhythm for 9 News Australia. A new upload there typically ends its first day with a small fraction of that audience. This one is heading for about fourteen times the norm. It stands out even more because the channel overall was drawing less than it does on an ordinary day. The other big news channels had mixed fortunes. CBS Sunday Morning was running ahead of its usual pace, while AccuWeather and Right Side Broadcasting Network were well below theirs.

The title gives a city and a date and nothing else, so it offers no clue about which story brought people in. The likes stayed in the low hundreds, a modest number beside a crowd that size.

9News is the news service of the Nine Network, one of Australia's main free-to-air commercial broadcasters, and this is the bulletin made for its Melbourne viewers.
