ADS7’s Good Friday Telethon, held in partnership with radio station 5AD, raises funds for the Adelaide Children’s Hospital.
Being Good Friday, ABS2, NWS9 and SAS10 all broadcast a reduced schedule. NWS9 gives its news the night off, while ABS2 reduces its 7.00pm bulletin to 15 minutes and gives current affairs program Today Tonight (the local branch of This Day Tonight) the night off.
