The Contrarians is an Australian television news and commentary program broadcast weekly on Sky News Australia throughout the week.
The series focuses on mainly political topics, with the program's host being joined by a panel of usually three commentators (sometimes four), who generally have opposing political views, and discuss the issues of the week. The program initially used the phrase "this is the only show on Sky or anywhere else where we truly involve you the viewer by reading out your tweets and emails."[2]
The programs aired at 4pm on Friday afternoons, in the timeslot PM Agenda holds on other weekdays, and was broadcast from the Sky News centre in the Sydney suburb of Macquarie Park.
Revivals of The Contrarians had been announced, having previously ended in 2014, with original host Peter van Onselen[3] but never eventuated.
