==Ratings and programs==

As it is not a commercial network it does not necessarily go for high rating programs but concentrates much of its air time on news and current affair programs such as “The 7.30 Report”, “Four Corners”, “Lateline” and the “ABC News” as well as many local programs such as children’s programs from 6am to 10am every weekday. <ref>http://www.abc.net.au/news/programs</ref>.  It consistently polls around 15 – 20% of the overall population share every day. <ref>http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2009/12/week-52-3.html</ref> <ref> http://www.throng.com.au/ratings/free-air-tv-ratings-monday-december-7-2009</ref>
