Who needs a free to air tv licence in metro areas when you can jus set up a FAST channel :wink:

It doesn’t seem like there’s a whole lot of difference between Sky News proper, Regional and Now. All you miss out on is a bit of AM Agenda and Newsday and the overnight UK feed. I’m sure Now will grow to other FAST providers, but there’s not a whole lot of point in paying Foxtel or Flash to access Sky News anymore is there?

Sources tell me Sky have sacked all their Flash employees. So perhaps this is the start of moving away from Flash, and toward a more broader reach?

Wasn’t that reported and announced last month?

Was reported here and other places. Nothing new.

Looks like Sky news has started on Samsung plus. Wasn’t meant to be the 23rd?

Do you have a screenshot of Sky News Now?

No, I don’t but I can confirm it’s the same as what they’re doing with Sky news in regional areas. It’s basically run to the same schedule.

This is all that airs during the ad breaks, although I think an ad or two have slipped through before

Would be nice if there was some breakfiller music or even the weather loop that the Australia Channel uses

even if they did what BBC World used to do…

Ads are usually overlayed on FAST channels, with the primary feed showing a breakfiller. They probably don’t have any advertisers just yet.

A few ads played tonight during Kenny (Maccas, Adidas and Adobe) then back to the break graphic. It would seem it was intentional.

Maybe they are program sponsors?

Sky hyperventilating this morning about the liberals being woke is why they lost.

As voters age, current trends are showing less are turning right.

They can’t face or admit the mortality of their own audience.

Will the Libs when elections again in the future, yes of course, but it won’t be with the help from Sky’s opinion shows appealing to an audience that is narrower than they’d like to admit.

So, why are you watching it then? Something tells me you secretly admire them but can’t admit it. Lol.

I tune in post elections for the Lols. Entertaining watching crazy people rationalize their nonsense.

Hahaha yeah I was watching when they somewhat berudgly called it haha. Was good entertainment to see them blame woke (as they normally do) when the liberals lose any election.

Might surprise was seeing Paul in labor related camps interviewing a labor supporter . That shut me up. Although he was very quiet. Loved how the labor supporter didn’t look at him at all during the interview :sweat_smile:

Omg where do I start with Chris Kenny? The arrogance is pretty telling. How bout look at the arrogance of the New South Wales liberal party over the fast few years and behaving during the pandemic? I most voters said fuck you last night.
