Albury and Wodonga are the two major cities of the New South Wales – Victorian border, with a collective population of around 100,000 residents.

The Albury-Wodonga region has reasonably high news outlet density. The major newspaper in the region is the Border Mail, published daily by Australian Community Media. News Corp has a hyperlocal digital presence in The Albury-Wodonga News. The Corryong Courier is an independent local newspaper in Towong Shire, while the Corowa Free Press, based in the unsampled New South Wales local government area Federation Council, also provides coverage of neighbouring Albury and across the border into Indigo Shire.

Southern Cross Austereo’s Triple M and hit brands are both present, as is Australian Broadcasting Corporation with a newsroom in Wodonga. ACE Radio Broadcasters operates 1494 2AY from Albury, and Vision Australia operates Albury 101.7FM as part of its national network of reading radio stations. Radio Upper Murray is a community radio station across the region, based out of Walwa, a small town near Corryong in Towong Shire.

Despite being in New South Wales, Albury is part of the Regional Victoria TV1 licence area and is covered by WIN, 10 and Prime7. 

Few outlet changes have been observed in the region. In June 2019 WIN Television closed its Albury- based newsroom, and the following year News Corp launched the digital hyperlocal The Albury-Wodonga News.
