    Drivel

    Absolute trash and drivel. When you watch this you can literally feel your IQ dropping.

    The Big Con That ACA Is

    Ironically a show that has storyline's about helping people more like exploiting them for ratings and stories, actually leaving them worse off #carcon these leeches along with #carsales promised to fix my car instead left us a dangerous undrivable car and in total $11,700 out of pocket. No response from ACA, Reid Blue Eyes Bulter. Yet the very producer was horrified by the treatment and conduct of CarSales and ACA considering I was on a walking stick and young son! You are a disgrace to journalism if you could call yourselves that. You did more damage than the PoS car dealer #topdealmotors and his fraudulent RWC violent mechanic!

    Hope you're proud of yourself because I was forced to sell that car $275 for scrap after being conned by ACA and CarSales head management!!!

    Nine Entertainment Co. farce

    Great Australian comedy. 1 star for it's farcical journalism.

    Dull and boring show saved by John Clarke and Bryan Dawe

    A Current Affair was a typical clone of all of the Current affairs shows in Australia. Stories were frequently the same with a few different details. This nightly current affairs show was made of dodgy businessmen, miracule drugs, battlers who are being picked on by the authorities and anything that gives them a chance to show some gratuitious nudity or senseless violence. The only thing worth tuning in for was the weekly segments made by John Clarke and Bryan Dawe. Highly satrical mock interviews, characteristic of John Clarke's style make ACA worth watching (or atleast tuning in for the last 5 minutes).

    TABLOID JOURNALISM

    A 30 minute Australian current affairs show that when it started was a platform for serious journalism. However, through the years and currently as of 2018, it is a tabloid journal filled with populist tripe.
