Recurring news stories

[spell_check]

Tonight, you will get the 2010 edition of the "Interstate Boxing Day Sales" on the news, while reminding us that Adelaide will have to wait until x day (Tuesday this year). Plus the obligatory camera coverage of the doors opening with the crush of people waiting to enter the store pouring into David Jones or whatever.

Every year we see this on the news. What do we also see every year?

I see Monday's Today Tonight has an investigation into Adelaide's rising electricity costs and how to beat them.
Call me crazy but I'm guessing it will (a) feature somebeody shopping around some kind of electrical device that monitors household appliances' consumption and (b) recommend that you turn off said household items when you are not using them.

Brilliant!

Low road toll = speed cameras working, so we need more
High road toll = call for more speed cameras by govt
