The newsman is Kevin Sanders[1] an Australian TV journalist and presenter. He's not particularly well known, but he was a newsreader for GTV 9 (Melbourne) and a presenter for A Current Affair back in the 70s.
His accent is the "broadcast accent" that was cultivated at the time. If you can lay your hands on a copy of Peter Weir's The Year of Living Dangerously[2] you'll hear a young Mel Gibson switch between his normal and a broadcast accent for his scenes in the recording booth.
