It's a real shame you can't tune into indigenous television network, Nine Impaja, in central areas - especially now that they’ve launched "Footprint"; the channel's first current affairs show. Imparja was first developed in 1988 with the aim of delivering information and communication services to the communities in the Northern territory while promoting indigenous culture and values. These values are still current and today the station remains totally owned and controlled by Northern Territory and South Australian Aboriginal shareholders. Footprints is hosted by journalist Catherine Liddle and was launched last month as a weekly current affairs program that takes a look at everyday life in rural and regional Australia. It's said heaps but it is actually really interesting to see more of, and learn more of, places outside of the Sydney/ Melbourne CBD. Imparja was procured by the nine network earlier this year - meaning they run a lot of Nine's shows -  wouldn't it be great if Nine showed Imparja shows like Footprint?
