Informit Media

Pinpoint current and archived news in an instant.
Search. Research. Discover.

TVNews Tracker is a media research tool that indexes Australian television news stories and current affairs programs broadcast on the free-to-air networks. Each news story is indexed individually and includes a detailed synopsis to help you identify and go directly to items of interest. Items range from 30 seconds bulletins to hour-long programs. Search results provide links to enable easy ordering of the video content for delivery by email, on DVD or via FTP.
