SKY News series embeds sponsors

SKY News embeds commercial sponsors for a series on the US-Australian Alliance.

SKY News has a new six part series The Alliance, in which Business Editor Ticky Fullarton looks at the US – Australian Alliance.

According to a release this is produced “in partnership with Visy and Verizon” (Visy Executive Chair Anthony Pratt is interviewed).

Ticky Fullerton, SKY News Business Editor and anchor, said: “One hundred years ago as the Alliance was being formed, the world was battling a global pandemic just as we are now. There is real depth to the story of the Alliance: founded though a joint belief in freedoms and defence of our values to a bond that is increasingly focused on business and opportunity and fast-moving geopolitics in our region. It’s a story all Australians should understand.”

In the lead up to the US Election later this year and as the world faces the biggest public health crisis in a generation, Sky News Business Editor Ticky Fullerton anchors the one-hour program examining the important role and impact of the US-Australian partnership.

During the first episode, Ticky travels to Washington to explore why the strength of our Pacific partnership is more important now, than ever and to understand the shared culture and values that form the fabric of our close bond with the US.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison talks to the state of the relationship, the influence of China and the crucial role of each country in global affairs.

Gaining insights from business leaders, political insiders and diplomats, including Arthur B. Culvahouse who is currently serving as the United States Ambassador to Australia, as well as former Australian politicians and United States Ambassadors to Australia, Joe Hockey and Kim Beazley, former American government official and United States Ambassador to Australia, John Berry and business leader, Anthony Pratt.

The program delves into specific details on why Australia is such an important partner in the Alliance, how the relationship is set to change in 2020 and how it will impact Australia’s association with China.

8pm AEDT tonight on SKY News.
