Inspired by this earlier post, where do you get your news? I refuse to read the Courier Mail, obvious the Brisbane reddit is NBG now, the Brisbane Times is a Fairfax rag and has much more southern content than Queensland, and very little truly Brisbane reporting.
Facebook groups are a mess, either being media owned, run by tow truck operators, or full of self-promotion. I follow Moreton council for council info, but that only gets you so far?
So where do I get the real gen?
Yeah it sucks... Channel 9 website but pretty much same as courier mail. https://www.9news.com.au/brisbane
Sometimes regional papers have some good stuff eg. https://www.northqueenslandregister.com.au/
Otherwise abc. https://www.abc.net.au/brisbane
I really want to use ground news for it but tends not to be related to Brisbane... Or just links to courier mail and Brisbane times https://ground.news/interest/brisbane-city
You inspired me to go try to find more. They are not great but is something:
Pretty much just ABC for me. I peek at Apple News some times and have added a ‘Brisbane’ channel but it’s sprinkled with ‘You blocked this channel’ markers because I blocked every News Corpse source I could find.
