welcome to news.com.au
Australia’s number one news site in 2013, news.com.au reaches over 2.9m* Australians, delivering extensive breaking news and national interest stories thanks to our team of dedicated journalists plus the strength of the News Corp Australia network.
Time is a precious commodity for our readers, and we get to the point with timely news updates around the clock.
We say what people are thinking and cover the issues that get people talking. We balance Australian and global moments - from politics to pop culture. We live to engage with readers and at appropriate times provide an alternate angle on the news that involves humour when least expected.
