News Weekly

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, with offices also in Queensland, New South Wales, Western Australia and South Australia.

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, and adopted its current name in 1946–47.

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

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

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

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