    As we are often discussing politics, I am curious to know where you gather your information from?

    Besides ABC and SBS for Australian/regional news, where do you look at to be best possible informed?

    For the Middle East region, I often watch:

    For Europe, I often watch:

    looking forward to learning your sources, cheers

    Interesting, I was watching BBC for many years, but for the last decade they appear to have developed a bit of a drift......Not quite sure anymore to believe them or not, depending on the subject of course.

    I just watch whatever channel is screening the news at the time. Mostly Channel 7, never Channel 9. Rarely the ABC and sometimes SBS for that weird lady with the funny colored hair and the strange accent.
