    Where do you get your news from? For me it is mostly the ABC and get FB feeds from Guardian Australia. I cannot connect with the Herald Sun apart from the Faith works section.

    I cant read/watch our news. To much propaganda, lies and brainwashing. Worked under reuters and bloomberg for too long, seen news before our dictators put thier spin on it... Dont belive any one source of media!

    Hold on there , you worked for Reuters and Bloomberg?. My old man worked for Reuters in the 1960s and we were posted to France for a year.
    I think that journalism can be an honorable occupation but much of the time it is not.The same can be said for a scientist or police detective.
    ABC TV's Catalyst managed to upset the apple cart with their two part program The Heart of the Matter. Good for them.

    Yeah as a software developer in the currency/financial markets. Raw news was a bonus as they called it.
    What did your old boy do under them? There pretty good at burning staff out...

    He reported business news. Ironic since he politically far on the left and had no idea of the culture of big business. In those days it was a non profit organization.
