Hi Tony,
I think that the most important Australian source is our public broadcaster
the ABC [Australian Broadcasting Corporation] - not to confused with the ABC
in the US! Their service in Australia is very similar to the BBC in the UK,
and, as the ABC is publicly funded, they are not reliant on advertising.
The ABC Online is at:

Cheers,
Jill

You will want to take a look at the Kidon Media Link.
It contains precisely what you are looking for.

I appreciate the reference and this is a very impressive source.
However what I am looking for is recommendations from LM_NETers of
specific news outlets.
