Your city, every morning
Morning Post is a network of free daily email newsletters for six Australian capitals, written for people who love where they live.
Morning Post grew out of a simple observation: the people who care most about their city — who attend the markets, who know the barista's name, who notice when a heritage building gets a new coat of paint — are the same people being underserved by the news.
I wanted to build something that respected their time and their intelligence. A 5-minute morning read with everything you need to start your day — local news, weather, events, history, puzzles, and a reason to smile — delivered before your first coffee.
No algorithms. No clickbait. No doomscrolling. Just your city, every morning.
What makes us different
Written for grown-ups
No outrage. No hot takes. No algorithmic rage. Clear, respectful writing about the things that matter — the kind of news you'd discuss over a cuppa, not argue about online.
Your city comes first
The lead story is always local. We cover national and world news too, but Morning Post is built around the place you live — your weather, your events, your local history.
Built for conversation
Daily polls, reader tips, community recommendations, and recipes. Hundreds of readers reply every week — and we read every one. This is a two-way street, not a megaphone.
Free
No paywalls. No subscription fatigue. Supported by local sponsors who value reaching engaged readers.
