Ok, i know im old, i accept that im whinging, but can ANYONE tell me where to find quality informative news on TV? (or anywhere for that matter)

No celebs
no surfing dogs
no cross promotion
no made up stories (channel 7 and the latest leadership tensions, im looking at you, this time)

is there anywhere that “news” exists?

@Offal Spokesperson: There’s this great place that does nothing but news – ABC news 24.

ABC and SBS are the two “free to air” channels where you will find a decent news broadcast in Australia.

Channels 7, 9 and 10 are quite simply not credible when it comes to news.
– They are sensationalist, greedy, blatant and quite frankly an embarrassment.

Thanks Matty, Emma and Reader… if only News 24 was “live” over here in 1974..ooops…. in Perth.

To be fair…having recently discovered the joys of Letters and Numbers on SBS, the slide into world news is fabulous, unfortunately, i still need to go somewhere for my local information.

My recommendation is to stick with news radio if you’re looking to be informed..

@Offal Spokesperson, ABC News 24 is live in Perth – everything is broadcast on AEST.
