Comment from Peter Saxon. I’ll wager that the good folk at Sky News and The Australian were ready and waiting to get stuck into Nine Radio’s management for letting Alan Jones go, ever since A...

What a pathetic piece. Saxon takes aim at Sky News more like it.

I have it on record on this site that I regularly listen to RN, 2BL (ABC702), and ABC News (630kHz) instead of 2GB.

One of the problems with the ABC is that it if there is any breaking news, the only station to listen to is ABC News (630kHz). With the exception of ABC News (630kHz), ABC stations "miss the bus" when it comes to breaking news. Granted you'll never hear on RN breaking news during pre-recorded spoken word programs.

One would expect the ABC metropolitan (2BL, 3LO) to break into important news.

The 1982 60th Anniversary of the ABC's "Naked Vicar Show" did a news flash skit, "....the ABC's action witnesss news car just missed....".

That is the perception one gets of the metropolitan stations.

2GB does a very good job with emerging and breaking news especially during the pandemic. ABC metro (2BL) misses the bus.

News of the pandemic changes continually. We want to know which venues, shops and public transport routes have been infected with the covid virus. The news services on 2GB always reminds us to refer to the NSW Health's website for updates on case locations, ref, https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/latest-news-and-updates .

I don't agree with Mr Kyle Sandilands (KIIS) that the listener is "covid-fatigued" to explain the rise in his ratings compared to 2GB and 2BL (ABC702).

The listener wants to know which locations have been infected and whether the listener visited sites that have been visited by infected people. Being ignorant of such events by listening to a music station and listening to male genitalia competitions, https://www.abc.net.au/mediawatch/episodes/radio/13441854.

See also the same kind of talk that Kyle and Jackie O did in 2008 at 2DAY, https://www.abc.net.au/mediawatch/episodes/fun---kyle-and-jackie-o-style/9974844, is dangerous.

Ignorance is not bliss.

Thank you,
Anthony of exciting and realistic Belfield
