Australia's TV Broadcasting scam - untouched networks

In many instances the general populous are conned into believing that they have some sort of rights, and that they can complain to various authorities to make amends to their claims.

One such authority is that of the Australian broadcasting standards which media networks have to adhere to, in which case is the ACMA (Australian Communications and Media Authority):
www.acma.gov.au

Networks have to adhere to time schedules and guidelines.

Over a period of time many samples have been taken, in which indicates that the TV channels DO NOT adhere to scheduled programming as described.

In this sample the program Criminal Minds is supposed to be aired to Australian TV at 8:30pm (20:30) AEST on Channel 7. In this instance the show has started at 8:41pm, 11 minutes past the time it is supposed to. Other show on other networks can be running 15 minutes past the scheduled time frame.

This is hardly record breaking Corporate Fraud, but none the less it is outside the boundaries of the acceptable time frame programming.

A fact that is deliberately overlooked by the very authorities that govern it.

Again NO fines or repercussions are felt.
