You know, when I think of news anchors. And good ones at that, i think of John Wilson. I live in Australia and John is very supportive of me. The news in Australia is very different to the news in America. We only have a 6pm news cast. Our morning bulliten is 3 hours long and it is National. I watch seven sunrise. Our 6pm news castes only go for half an hour. Only one of them goes for one hour.

Well  thats all for me!

Well Matty we really only have 15 minutes of news, but our local channels think we need to hear he same crap for 3 hours. It's really quite redundit.

That was how it used to be 30 years ago. Two hours in the morning, 30 minutes in the afternoon and then 30 minutes at 6pm followed by 30 minutes of national and international news.

The news today is not designed for one person to sit and watch all four hours in the morning. It is designed for those who have different schedules and can not watch at a certain time frame.

15 minutes what channel are you watching it's about 5 min and they never tell the hole story or follow up on one. How about if they would follow up on a story about a 18 year old killing someone with a gun. Did he get the weapon from his parents or steal it.
Why do I have to read my gun magizines for any positive stories from the wars in the middle east or when a homeowner uses his or her's firearm to protect there family.

Yes Matty, If you need an alternative source of news, you have definately come to the right site . As Gary said, the news here on 13 is designed for people on the go who don't have set schedules or their schedule conflicts with normal news times..... so they have repeat segments to accomodate all the viewers...Ed

You live in Australia, God Bless You. John Wilson is a great news caster. I like Denise White and all the rest of the cast aswell.
Just remember, when possible buy American!
USA! USA! USA!

I live in Australia. I love the news business! You know there are alot of differences between Australian News and American News. If you want to know what the difference is read my blogs. Feel free to ask any questions that you have about Australian News!
