- Australian teenagers are increasingly turning away from local TV in favor of online streaming services and social media.

- The top reasons for not watching local TV include a lack of relevant content, too many ads, and a preference for watching content on demand.

- Teenagers are more likely to watch local TV if it is available on streaming services or if it is more interactive.

- Teenagers are still interested in watching news and current affairs, but they prefer to get this information from online sources or social media.
