SBS has created a new daily news wrap series as part of our commitment to better serve English learners and people with disabilities. The initiative includes two distinct podcasts: “News in English,” a five-minute news summary, and “On the Money,” a ten-minute wrap focused on finance and business news. Both podcasts are meant to be approachable, giving you the most important news you need to know in a quick and straightforward way.
The “News in English” podcast makes a great resource for learners hoping to sharpen their English language aptitude. His daily five-minute wrap provides witty, informative summaries of world affairs. It ensures that English learners are linguistically and culturally responsive. SBS knows how important it is to meet people where they’re at and reach communities with inclusive news. This podcast is aimed directly at the individuals who stand to gain from accessible news stories.
SBS is so much more than “News in English”. It is the home of “On the Money,” hosted by SBS Finance Editor Ricardo Gonçalves. This is the podcast that gives you all the financial, business and economic news in about ten minutes every day. Gonçalves, known for his expertise in financial reporting, delivers insights into market trends and economic developments, enabling listeners to stay updated on important financial matters.
Both podcasts are hosted on Anchor and widely distributed, so you can find them on all your favorite podcast platforms and listen anytime, anywhere. This flexibility helps all of us, but it’s especially advantageous for people who might otherwise struggle to access news in more usual formats. By offering these daily news wraps, SBS aims to empower its audience with knowledge while promoting inclusivity in news consumption.
SBS has taken the pledge to deliver accessible news content, understanding the varied barriers in equal measure that people with disabilities experience and deserve. These are just a few examples of how our daily news wraps help these teachers turn the radicalization into dialogue and action. It’s the ideal format for their storytelling. By prioritizing the needs of English learners as well as people with disabilities, SBS showcases its commitment to creating a more informed public.
