Pilot stabbed during flight; Card surcharges over for Aussie businesses | 9 News Australia

A typical day on 9 News Australia already brings in well over a million views. Right now the channel is drawing more than twice that, and it is doing it with a mix of world news and the kind of household questions Australians argue about at the checkout.

The quickest mover is a combined report: a pilot stabbed during a flydubai flight bound for Israel, followed by news that card surcharges are ending for Aussie businesses. A separate, shorter clip on the flight, titled as a pilot allegedly attacking a fellow pilot, went up the same day. The surcharge half of the bulletin may matter more to most viewers' wallets. Anyone who has paid an extra percent or two for tapping a card at a café will know why.

Close behind is a plain question that clearly found its audience: how long will your EV battery actually live for? The Wednesday full bulletins from Melbourne and Sydney followed, with Melbourne a little ahead of its northern counterpart. Further down the list, Roosters and Knights supporters turned out to rally behind their teams, a reminder that rugby league is never far from the Nine newsroom.

Among the news broadcasters nearest it in size, 9 News sits second from the bottom by subscribers but near the top for daily views. Only C-SPAN is drawing slightly more. CBS Sunday Morning and Right Side Broadcasting Network are also well above their usual pace, while BBC World Service is running a touch below its own.
