SX News is a weekly gay and lesbian newspaper based in Sydney, Australia.
One of several titles published by the Evolution Publishing group, SX News (commonly referred to simply as SX) is distributed throughout Sydney and New South Wales. The publication covers local, national and international news of interest to the gay and lesbian community, and has a strong focus on the arts and entertainment.
SX regularly interviews high profile people of interest to the gay community, and its interviews have included NSW Premier Morris Iemma, Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore MP, and celebrities such as Rupert Everett, Perez Hilton, Janet Jackson, kd lang, and the Pet Shop Boys.
The editorial team consists of Reg Domingo (editor) and journalists Adam Bub, Garrett Bithell and Katrina Fox. The publication also draws upon a stable of regular contributors, including freelance journalist Peter Hackney, Sydney drag identity Mitzi Macintosh and actor/novelist Phil Scott.
SX is the official Media Sponsor of the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, Sydney Leather Pride, and Diva.
In late 2006, the publication changed from a newsprint format to a high-quality, full-colour full-gloss format.
