Seven West Media / Channel 7
reviews and complaints

I think it is terrible that you would even consider cancelling "Rosanne" for the things that were said on her show.

What about "Jimmy Kimmel"?

Rosanne's remarks are no comparrison to the low down degrading words out of Kimmel's mouth towards President Trump, Melania, Barron, Mike Pence, Sarah Sanders, etc. If anyone should be shut down it should be Kimmel.

What happened to free speech? This isn't just a little one sided!

Shame on you!

This is about Ubisoft the company who makes games I would like to make a complaint about the company thay make games but thay don't add the option to start a new game in some games now by right people who play the games. Like the crew for example the online world deserve that option to start a new game. I would like the universe to know about it so please put it on the news. Please

This complaint is about how WA is not receiving live games even when the game is not even played in Perth still delayed by hours. We have repeats of House Rules. This is just disgusting how repeats of TV shows have priorities over AFL live games. This has been going on for two many years now.Year ago they brought in the extra channel 7 channels which they said there will be better coverage and more live sports especially AFL and I see nothing but less especially in Western Australia . Sometimes even when the Fremantle Dockers and West Coast Eagles don't play on a weekend day they will not even put any game on a Sunday.

Hi I have written to yahoo 7 3 times over the last couple of months regarding scams advertised on their Yahoo 7 news. These scams are sponsored articals with the latest being shark tank is cancelled and how all the sharks have invested in auto trading crypto currency.

This scam is showing up in nearly every news articles I read and I believe yahoo 7 has a duty of care to ensure the sponsored articles are legitiment. You obviously make money from this and is being paid by the people who get ripped off.

As the attached photo there is a news article about scams with the link to the scam on the same page in the bottom right hand corner of the screen shot. I have also sent a previous email to the ACCC to investigate.

Very disappointing you promote scams just to make money.

As I have written 3 previous emails I would like to hear back as I will follow this up with the ACCC to ensure you are held responsible for you actions.

Jamie.

My husband and I always comment on how channel 7 turns the news into a drama in an effort to get more viewers. We have been disgusted in the past at the ruthless and uncaring attitude of sunrise in turning up wherever tragedy strikes, just to get a story. They give the impression of being the ‘sunrise family', there to give sympathy and support, in an effort to increase their ratings - and some viewers do get sucked in. For this reason, we stopped watching sunrise.

After tonight's episode of channel 7 news, showing the distressing video of a young woman holding her stillborn baby, we will no longer be watching. The presenters told us the mother wanted viewers to see it. It wasn't her decision. You chose to show it for ratings. It was distressing beyond measure. We do not need to see this graphic detail shoved down our throats at dinner time, a few days before mothers' day. We do not need to see videos like this to be able to empathise and understand the tragedy of the situation. After all we have been bombarded with videos of dying sheep over the past week.

We feel angry and disgusted, and hope action is taken to prevent this kind of sensationalist ‘news' being aired by your network.

The news service is a load of rubbish
26 April's opening story was a about and AFL footballers conduct while out
followed by a story about a pet
followed by a car running through a fence of a police station
followed by an updated on house prices in Adelaide

Surely something happened in the world that was more relevant than those stories.

Your service is a disgrace.

Brian Taylor's commentary today during the North Melbourne Hawthorn game was shocking. His bias towards Hawthorn was a disgrace.

As Hawthorn began to mount a comeback in the second half, he became more and more animated. His wish to see Hawthorn win was so blatant. As Hawthorn began to score second half goals he became more and more excited. He continually taunted fellow commentators to believe in Hawthorns comeback. Thankfully Tim Watson had restraint and was a neutral commentator, not buying in to Taylor's hyperbole. At one point Hawthorn missed a goal, and you could hear Taylor sigh in total disappointment. He was gutted that they missed.

The other noticeable point was his total silence when North scored a goal.

Brian Taylor should be dropped, send him to the country for a spell after such a biased performance.

I am disgusted at the lack of Duty of Care of the management of MKR involved with this seasons competition. In particular, I refer to the episode aired 18/4/18. In today's environment where bullying and victimisation is considered grounds for liability and compensation in many settings, the lengths to which, it can only be assumed, the producer/s of MKR have let the conflict continue, presumably hoping for increased ratings, is both unacceptable and unprofessional. Seven West Media / Channel 7, a disgraceful attempt at television. A public apology should made with an explanation as to why such behaviour was permitted to continue and be aired accordingly.

I read the article by Stephen Koukoulas titled: Labor party poised for the next federal election.. Seriously.. is this news? it is very one sided opinionated and should be an ad for the labor party. Recently the ABC got in trouble for opinionated pieces by authors, and you guys should be too. Present news not biased stories favoring political parties. Absolute disgrace.

To whom it may concern,

I am furious again this weekend. Why do we have delayed afl games, this is our national game. It is infuriating that we wait all year for footy season and we can't even watch these games live with out paying telstra or foxtel or someone. Showing a game after we have received notifications on our tipping apps and websites is a disgrace. We should be able to watch every single game live. Channel 7 has how many channels, normal 7, hd 7, 7 mate why do we have the commonwealth games on every single one! It's stupid, we pay for tvs and set top boxes and electricity and I can not afford to pay for foxtel and nor should we have to, just to watch our national sport! You put the news on just about every single channel for hours and hours in the morning and at night going over and over the same stuff day after day but can't even put on a 2 hour game. We shouldn't have to pay extra or go to a sports bar, some of us don't drink and most of us have children or grandchildren that want to watch the game, to it is completely inappropriate to take children to such places. Think about our country and our kids and what we want as families, stop rerunning old and boring rubbish and stop giving priority of every single channel to international rubbish! Channel 7 keep australia number one. Or create a new designated channel, stupid money making companies using us to make a profit like foxtel and telstra has to stop, it's not good enough! So many channels with the exactly the same thing, what a waste of time! Put all afl games on live especially wa teams!

Hi I love MKR and the banter around the competition however there's is a troll that is posting violent images vulgar pictures and abuse at people asking her to stop. Where are the admins to remove her and block her? It is vile and disgusting and you need to do something about this. Her name is Melissa Young.
I expect you will act immediately before I contact the media about you doing nothing.

David Dutton & Joe Herdman clearly come from a long history of how TV program promotions used to work.

So far they have managed to disappoint their viewers with promos that promise great viewing but deliver programs that include no content from the promo.

It's the perfect formula if you want to disappoint your entire sum of viewers, ask Jo Blow if they are excited by your promos or doubt 7's hype, guarantee you it's the later.

Clearly these 2 producers have no idea of how to respect the integrity of the current day viewer, it's insulting.

If you want to run over 50 promos a day, for 1 show, for the next 3 weeks and think we are all going to be excited to see your show, think again.

MKR promo = finding the button change channels as fast as possible

I'm concerned with the bullying that is televised on the current season of My Kitchen Rules.
In a time where we have campaigns and programs in place to help stamp out bullying in our schools, and workplaces there it is seen on television and appears to be encouraged as it helps ratings.
The show I thought was a cooking competition, not who can throw the worst and hurtful insults.
Please can we go back to the original format and make it about the food and not about bullying fellow contestants.
Thank you.

This show is a disgrace, I have not been at all interested in watching this season...from what I have seen on the ad's it clearly is an all time low for this Chanel, can this show get removed before it gets any worse and promotes any more bullies? From the same channel that has sunrise being anti-bullying and then the absolute garbage of MKR, whom ever is responsible or works on this vulgar show needs to be ashamed of themselves for promoting bullying... this show has worsened over every season, and as I said before that I will not waste my time in watching a second of this show, the only time I have seen anything to do with it is via an advertising spot and what can I say it disgusts me! Channel 7, try and save yourself and maybe try saving the MKR brand too by remove this show.

To whom it may concern,

I work in dental surgery and we have channel 7 viewing in the waiting area and above all dental chairs in 6 rooms.
On Friday the 23.March.2018 at 12pm lunchtime you showed the movie "Stolen from Suburbia"
The content is absolutely inappropriate for 12pm lunchtime!
We have children and parents as patients.
Sex trafficking and humiliating teenage girls, threatening to beat them up if they dont satisfy the customer.
This should be M rated.
Here the content of the show :

Milena (Stolen From The Suburbs)

Milena.jpg
The evil Milena
Milena (Olivia D'Abo) was the main villainess of the 2015 Lifetime film Stolen From The Suburbs (Alternately titled Stolen From Suburbia; airdate August 30, 2015). As a child, Milena was sold by her mother to sex traffickers, leading her to be sexually assaulted on several occasions. As an adult, Milena became the leader of her own trafficking ring, stating that the abuse she faced in her youth didn't break her, but instead made her strong. She also killed people to sell their organs on the black market as a side business.

The movie opens with Milena's henchmen abducting two homeless teens from a beach. After learning about this, Milena tells them that the homeless teens they kidnap don't last long, and that their syndicate wants "healthier stock". This leads Tom and his reluctant accomplice brother Adam to kidnap teenage girl Emma Frey, along with her friend Courtney. Once both girls are trapped in a cage at the warehouse where Milena runs her business, she gives all her imprisoned victims a speech saying that they will never see their families again and that they belong to her now. She also lays out ground rules, explaining that not satisfying customers will result in physical punishments and that they will kill their families if they try to escape (It's never clear if the latter is true or just a threat to earn the girls' obedience). After casually asking who among the girls were virgins (saying they are valuable to her), Milena leaves the girls to her cohorts to get them ready for a photo shoot.

Emma's mother Katherine works to save her, aided by human trafficking survivor Anna. She poses as a customer to save Courtney in an attempt to find Emma, but she is caught and captured by one of Milena's henchmen. Milena then confronts a captive Katherine, bragging about how lucrative her profession is and having her henchman torture Emma unless Katherine tells her what she told the police. She then tells her henchmen to kill Katherine and harvest her organs, but Katherine escapes and manages to free Emma. But Milena stops her, pointing a gun at her. She tells her that she's going to kill her and keep Emma and sell her out to rough places where people pay extra to torture girls. But before she can shoot Katherine, Milena is fatally shot by Emma (who had grabbed the gun Katherine stole from Milena's cohort).

Please be more mindful of your power to desensitise the community against those real life issues!

Please choose a different content during the day!

Thank you for taking the time to think about this.

Kind Regards

Maria

It has been a disappointing series of MKR with the focus on the contestants personalities and interactions rather than the cooking. This has however hit its greatest low with the most recent advert which displays gratuitous bullying and disrespectful behaviour.
All of this when we are seeing our state govt and local schools work towards anti-bullying campaigns. This behaviour could have been managed off-screen if you want to put up with it, but it has gone too far. It is not only poor role modelling, the program has gone so far from a cooking show that it has lost its purpose.
I would like to know that you are going to review your standards and put in place some behaviour standards for contestants in future? Surely community responsibility must impact on ratings at some point as it is becoming distasteful.

To the managers, directors and CEOs,
MKR advertisement 17/3/18 on 7 mate
I am appalled by the conduct of the contestants on My Kitchen Rules as well as the the fact that the broadcaster is promoting this woeful behavior on national television. In recent years countless young teens have committed suicide due to bullying and attacks against them in social media, yet Channel Seven is broadcasting in an advertisement, contestants of MKR clearly bullying each other with sly remarks. I was of the belief that MKR was a family oriented show, since it is on prime time television. This is not the kind of behavior anyone should be promoting to children that then think this behavior is acceptable.
Could you please explain why this is considered acceptable behavior for broadcast?
And, what is going to be done about this behavior being promoted on your station?

Sincerely
Josh

We have your breakfast team going on nearly every morning about bullying in schools and bringing laws to stop it, then your making huge sums of money promoting MKR my kitchen rules where bulling between the couples in what was once a cooking show is obsessive, people watching that show get plenty of ideas for school playgrounds bullies and you promote it.
