ARN launches iHeart Tassie news series
ARN is continuing to expand its regional news footprint with the launch of iHeart Tassie, a weekly news series focused on the Tasmanian community.
Produced and presented by Hobart 7HO Breakfast Newsreader Britt Aylen, the series launches today with ‘Tassie, The Roadkill Capital’ about the alarming rate of animals that die on Tasmanian roads.
The show will air each Friday morning across ARN’s heritage Tasmanian stations, with a 20-minute podcast available on demand.
Additionally, each 20-minute episode is available as a weekly podcast providing on demand access for audiences.
“I am honoured to be part of the iHeart Tassie news series,” said Aylen.
“This platform allows us to bring attention to crucial local issues that deserve broader awareness and share local stories that matter to Tasmanians.
“Through in-depth investigation and storytelling, we aim to engage and educate our audience, fostering a stronger sense of community and understanding.”
Fiona Ellis-Jones, Head of News & Information at ARN added: “Through iHeart Tassie, we aim to deepen our connection with the local community, keeping them informed and engaged on pressing issues.
