So what do people think of this news organization? I'm not talking so much of what happened with their banning and then review by the government. More to do with the individual programming and content. Just my personal opinion but it's like watching Fox news from America. Right winged rubbish. And to top them off is Rita Panahi on Fridays. Ably supported by some pretty average people on their Outsiders program, Andrew Bolt and apparently their ace Paul Murray. Special mention goes to Chris Kenny. Just my opinion though. What do others think?

Haven't seen Sky News but a bit of Fox News. Fox News is to news what WWE is to sport

Speers and Jayes on Sky are excellent. The rest is vomit.

Siighly skewed view from me as I live abroad and only watch clips on Twitter.

On Fox, Shep Smith is good. The rest of Fox is awful.

Don't watch it, and certainly aren't about to start watching after just seeing a commercial that Peta Credlin is to have a regular program, she's a coat.

sky news used to be decent and only shifted to the right in recent years. not as bad as fox news in the USA (yet), but that recent interview of the Neo Nazi was beyond ridiculous. I am glad heads rolled and sponsors left the station.

Specsavers and Amex have withdrawn advertising that I know of. I'm sure there are more.

I'm sure you would love watching Panahi on a Friday afternoon. Fool.

ACA hasn’t been “current affairs” for a very long time. It’s more A Consumer Affairs now and has been for a very long time.

Is the project a current affairs show? Thought it was more light entertainment.

As long as that old muppet Uncle Rupert is alive we will have the RWNJ shows.

Murray, Bolt, Credlin, Hadley ( special appreances) with his mate Gloria Jones better known as Gloryhole Alan.

What a bunch of beep beepers.
