SBS has also developed two new daily news programs, with a clear goal of producing content which is accessible and caters to the information needs of different communities. Produced by the Special Broadcasting Service of Australia, “On the Money,” a ten-minute finance and business news wrap, hosted by SBS Finance Editor Ricardo Gonçalves. To assist, this new program will focus on breaking down complicated developments in financial news and summarizing them in a clear, digestible way.
Along with “On the Money,” SBS produces a five-minute daily news wrap called “News in English.” However, the program expressly serves English learners and people with disabilities. It ensures that all Americans can stay informed about critical public health emergencies. Both programs reflect SBS’s commitment to inclusivity and its dedication to serving the community’s varied needs.
The release of these wraps is in line with SBS’s overall strategy to deliver inspiring and engaging content that’s always on and always relevant. On the Money is your backstage pass to today’s most relevant stories in money and economics, connecting you to the big ideas that are shaping our economy today. Host Ricardo Gonçalves draws on years of financial journalism experience to make sense of it all and lead you beyond the headlines.
“News in English” is intended to overcome language barriers. It presents the day’s news in straightforward English, making it easier for non-native speakers and those with hearing impairments to understand current events. This program is a terrific example of how SBS inspires cultural literacy and representation in film and television.
Fans of “On the Money” can catch “News in English” on SBS’s website. There, they’ll find a multitude of other news podcasts. The dedicated section for news podcasts includes various formats and topics, allowing listeners to choose content that suits their interests. Read more at SBS News Podcasts.
