Linda,

Take a look at the CIA World Factbook info (http://www.dailyearth.com/IntnNews/australia.html) for descriptions of some of the major papers in Australia.  This might be of some help to  you and your faculty member.

I would like to tap the collective wisdom of our group. A faculty member asked me what is considered the most important Australian newspaper (equivalent to the New York Times). I'm clueless.
