Also ACA know their audience demographic very well. Look at the type of people they feature in their stories: Anti Hoon/Unemployed/drugs stories: tThe biggest ferals they can find. Anti banks/loans stories: People that clearly didnt read the terms of their contract properly, or even consider the maths (oh no, I thought that 18 months interest free meant I didnt have to pay for 18 months!). They then use these people to prove how the banks are ripping us off Anti Council stories: some poor old biddy who parked her car on a footy oval, then had her car towed. How dare the council not put NO PARKING signs on the oval. Then theres the people who whinge that the airport/sandown/chadstone etc are too loud/cause too much traffic etc, and how they shouldnt be able to do that - despite the fact that the airport/sandown/chadstone were there long before these people moved to that area. So ACA isnt going to run a story they cant sensationalise, because then the people the above stories appeal to would stop watching. Hope that made sense.
