SBS recently premiered a daily five-minute newscast. This wrap was produced with a focus on English learners and those with disabilities. This first-of-its-kind initiative produces news content that is free and accessible to all. It creates the opportunity for everyone in the community to be informed. To make our content more accessible, SBS is officially rolling out this news wrap. This program is designed to help new, varied audiences better connect with and relate to one another and the world around them.
Along with the daily news wrap, SBS has launched a stand-alone News in English podcast. This podcast is a great resource for an English language learner of any level. Most importantly, it ensures that you are learning with the most up-to-date news at your fingertips! On all major podcast platforms, the News in English podcast presents an exciting new option for audiences to receive news and information.
SBS recognizes the growing demand for financial news that’s easy to understand. In response, they recently launched a new daily ten-minute wrap-up of finance and business news, “On the Money.” SBS Finance Editor Ricardo Gonçalves, pictured above, moderates this segment. He provides humorous, sharp and crystal clear insights into the world of finance. Whether you’re an inexperienced investor or a financial guru, our goal with “On the Money” is to ensure you have as much information as possible to understand both major economic trends and market developments.
