Generalizing 350 million people, yay.

Perth isn’t in South Australia, but AFAIK Adelaide doesn’t have an underground train line either. Australia doesn’t really have ‘subway’ systems, just a few underground stations around the inner city, at most.

Ideally, they should ask critical questions. But this host’s job (that is, the labor they are being paid to perform) isn’t to serve society as a news host.
