Ask HN: Good Sources of News in Australia?
I am interested what sources of news people in Australia recommend. Is there anything that’s free, high quality and not ideologically driven?
- clouddrover 6y agoThe ABC: https://www.abc.net.au/news/ https://www.abc.net.au/news/ And SBS: https://www.sbs.com.au/news/ https://www.sbs.com.au/news/
- abricot 6y agoFrom the little I've watched ABC on youtube they are pretty biased. Very pro UK and anti EU.
- clouddrover 6y ago> From the little I've watched ABC on youtube they are pretty biased. So you know next to nothing about the ABC but you nevertheless have strong opinions about it. > Very pro UK and anti EU. Prove it. Show me all this supposed anti-EU stuff.
- mohan82 6y agoI worked at ABC for 5years as a dev, they are far left when it comes to political views and yes they try to imitate what BBC does. But still it is the best national news site in Australia. smh is next.
- clouddrover 6y agoDescribing the ABC as "far left" is as much of a nonsense as describing it as "anti-EU".

- eucryphia 6y agoI see tony-allan and cloudrover have recommended three of the fakest fake news outlets in that country. There is a reason you have to pay for good journalism with your own money.
