For @crikey_news, I draw on our @_ACTC_ research - primarily my study on how kids' use streaming platforms - to highlight the need for creative thinking about 'smart' TV policy. 👇 Gov consultation is underway, so the time is NOW to reimagine our kids' TV policy landscape @RMIT

Do your kids still watch free-to-air TV? I spoke to the ABC about the serendipity of live Kids TV and our @_ACTC_ research with parents who don't bother to fix their antennas. @SwinHASS abc.net.au/everyday/what-…

Our @_ACTC_ research found that #Bluey was the No. 1 show that Aussie parents watch with their kids and that co-viewing takes place at the weekend. So it’s great that new #Bluey has moved to Sunday mornings making it easier for families to co-watch actcresearch.com/project-outcom…

Interesting research about what Australians are watching in this steaming dominated era, which compliments some key findings from our Parents' Survey and Report! actcresearch.com/project-outcom…
