Apple’s subscription news service News+ will be launched in Australia on 1 October, with News Corp Australia to be the exclusive local provider of news content. News Corp CEO Robert Thompson said the media group is pleased to be partnering with a company which recognises that there should be a premium for "premium journalism" and which believes in the "profundity of provenance". He also claimed that Apple rival Google is more interested in hype and hypocrisy. Bauer Media and Pacific Magazines are also providing content to News+, which will cost $14.99 per month with a one-month free trial.
