For the best reports go to the
The ABC is Australias public broadcaster. The commercial tv will go into a feeding frenzy on this and will be hysterical.

From a news report:
The Martin Place studio is Seven's main newsroom and home to breakfast show Sunrise andThe Morning Show, which was on air when news of the siege broke about 9.45am.
The network was originally running a live-stream of the siege, but was asked to take it down for security reasons.

It is unknown if any Seven staff are among the hostages.
State Parliament, which is one block away from the cafe, has also been closed to the public, while David Jones's flagship store in the city was also being evacuated.
Terrified customers in the cafe could be seen holding an Islamic flag - which is black with white writing on it - up against the glass window. The flag appears to be a Shahada flag, not an Islamic State flag, but is associated with Islamist and jihadist movements.

I've checked all major news cables here and only BBC is covering nonstop. CNN mentioned it and then went on to other news, AJazerz covered it briefly and went on to other stories , so far I have not seen any mention on Fox and don't know about Msnbc, don't ever go there.
We have been watching the BBC as we get it on our cable news line up.
Poor people just going in for a cup of coffee.
