Do the Brisbane times get similar levels of national and international coverage as SMH/Age? (kbin.social)

Thinking of subscribing for when the 14 days free ends. I just don't want to miss out on national stuff, but the Qld state coverage is sorely needed.

It's exactly the same content. They're all Fairfax. You can take any smh.com.au article, replace "smh" with "theage", "brisbanetimes" or "watoday" and see what I mean.

If the subscription prices differ among the cities, go with whatever is cheapest. You'll get them all.

Yeah okay, might do SMH then.

More to the point: do they provide any articles worth reading? Most of the content is either news available with less exaggeration via ABC, or fluff / outrage pieces that aren't really news anyway.

Eh, I find some of their stories worth reading that I don't see on the ABC
