	The Chaser (newspaper) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Chaser is a satirical Australian enterprise, most famous for their newspaper and web site which are known to push the limits as to what they publish and for "striving for mediocrity in a world of excellence."
		But when their newspaper was shown as a lead story in all major Australian news broadcasts, not only was the headline widely spread, but the concept and the popularity of the newspaper leaped dramatically.
		The Chaser team have gone on to create the ABC TV Logie Award winning show, CNNNN; Election specials The Election Chaser and The Chaser Decides; as well as the Triple J radio drive program, Today Today, and their newest television show, The Chaser's War on Everything.

	Storm Chasers and Storm Chaser History of Storm Chasing
		While chasers like Hoadley, Jensen and Ward were tracking storms in the 1950's; the government soon realized the public was in need of an early warning system for dangerous weather.
		The majority of pre-1990's chasers pursued storms for the pure "love of it." Chasers were regarded as passing tourists -- rarely seen along the side of a lonely Plain's highway snapping pictures of storms.
		One of the reasons for the limited number of chasers prior to the late 1980's was the unavailability of weather and forecasting data.

		We stopped just south of Quanah, TX where we heard other chasers talking on the ham radio, and found out that there was a good size chaser convergence just to the north of Quanah, so we went up there to meet up with them.

		Chaser's investigations take him to places such as Chernobyl and Baikonur, where he must summon all his strength, not just to get his scoop, but merely to survive.

	media
		Much of The Chaser hardcopy in hand misses the mark: that page one Microsoft splash is exceptionally weak and one suspects they put it there only to try to seek some international celebrity.
		One of The Chaser's dilemmas - and perhaps it's as much a strength as a weakness - is that its brave little band of satirists could be locked into the fog of political correctness that has enveloped polite Sydney society of recent years.
		If The Chaser stays at its present standard, it will sadly become something the lads and their parents who helped fund the dream will be able to feel good about when they’re in later life earning a real wage in a totally different profession.

		The motto of The Chaser, the satirical newspaper that feeds media junkies with headlines such as SKASE TOO ILL TO FLY HOME FOR BURIAL, is “striving for mediocrity in a world of excellence”.
		On the eve of a federal election, and a new series of The Chaser Decides, a four-part sequel of a sort to 2001’s outstanding political satire The Election Chaser, those words are uncomfortably resonant.
		The answer to that question may be found in fact that the ABC has appointed Rehame to monitor all of the ABC’s election coverage.

	Poynter Online - The Chaser
		But newspaper hegemony ended when radio took hold as a commercial medium in the middle of the decade.
		The newspaper's sports franchise took a hit as well, as broadcasters aired baseball and football games, and variety and music shows stole other leisure readers.
		Yet anybody working at a newspaper in the 1920s would have understood that radio, an extraordinarily cheap way to reach a mass audience in those days, was unbundling the ad market and shrinking the newspaper advertising base.

		This is extremely dangerous and avoided by most chasers, who prefer to move around a thunderstorm rather than through it.
		Core-punching can bring chasers into torrential rain, high winds and possibly the path of a tornado before they see it.
		Chasers prefer distinct, individual thunderstorms, so the formation of an MCS can signal the end of a chase.
