Europe and the World in the Australian news

A nice guest lecture on journalism in Australia and about their news consumption. A quick round-up:

Currently the news supply in Australia is coming mainly from the United States and Europe. Much of the international news is received through the wires, there are hardly any own correspondents in Europe.

The interests of Australia are changing to Asia, as China, Japan and India are big trading parteners. Still there aren’t many Australian journalists located in these countries. Still it is believed that the Australian focus will change towards the Asian Pacific.
