СБС Радио данас је објавио да се од 3. јула програм намењен домородачком становништву преименује са SBS SBS Living Black Radio на NITV Radio. То представља проширење сарадње између NITV програма на телевизији и радијског програма намењеног аутохтоном становништву и понудиће слушаоцима више могућности да се ангажује и учествује у стварању програма који ће бити доступан под истим називом на телевизији, радију, онлајн и на социјалним платформама.
Директорка СБС Радија за програмски садржај Менди Викс (Mandi Wicks) рекла је: “Од свог зачетка 1980, Living Black Radio јебио посебност СБС Радија. Као NITV Radio,програм ће наставити да даје вредан и виталан допринос емитовању програма за Абориџане и острвљане из Торес Мореуза у Аустралији, и остаће препознатљив програм на који смо изузетно поносни. ”
МЕнаџер NITV канала Тања Орман (Tanya Orman) каже: “На NITV, ми смо страствени када је у питању емитовање вертодостојних прича широј аустралијској публици. Ова промена назива је изузетно узбудљив корак и изузетно моћан корак напред за медије домородачког становништва.”
