About Smoko News

Smoko News is an Australian news aggregator. It gathers headlines and short summaries from Australian national, state, and international sources and links directly to each article at the publisher's site.

We don't republish full articles. Every headline is a direct link to the original piece — Smoko News is a front page, not a publisher.

Summaries and copyright

The short summaries shown beneath headlines are drawn from the RSS feeds maintained by publishers themselves — the same excerpt a publisher syndicates to news readers worldwide. Summaries are hard-truncated to a short maximum. Headlines and summaries remain © their respective publishers. Smoko News stores only the minimal excerpt needed to identify the story.

Sources

Sources currently covered include ABC News (national and per-state feeds), Guardian Australia, SBS News, and a range of Australian and international technology, business, and politics outlets. All sources are public RSS feeds.
