Kingston's media career began in 2000 working as a reporter and newsreader for ABC Radio Brisbane, before moving to ABC Radio Rockhampton. In 2001, she moved to WIN News as reporter and fill-in newsreader for the Toowoomba bulletin. After six-months, Kingston was appointed as full-time presenter of the Toowoomba and Sunshine Coast WIN News bulletins.
In 2005, Wendy resigned from WIN and moved to Sydney, where she was picked up by the Nine Network to report for Nine News in Sydney.
Kingston began presenting the National Nine News: Morning Edition at the start of 2007, replacing Georgie Gardner who moved to Today. In late 2007, she was replaced by then National Nine News: Afternoon Edition presenter Kellie Sloane.
In July 2008, Wendy presented the final bulletin of Nightline. Following this, she was appointed presenter of Nine News PM Edition.
Kingston remained host of Nine Afternoon News until May 2009, when she moved to presenting Nine's Late News. This was due to be the replacement of Nine Afternoon News with This Afternoon, a new news and current affairs program hosted by Andrew Daddo and Katrina Blowers. After Kingston moved to Nine's Late News, the Nine Afternoon News was presented in Melbourne for a 7-week period with various presenters.
