2SM is an Australian radio station, licensed to and serving Sydney, New South Wales, broadcasting on 1269 kilohertz on the AM band. It is owned and operated by Broadcast Operations Group.
2SM's programs are heard across the 2SM Supernetwork in regional New South Wales and Queensland, consisting of 32 AM and FM stations. Many of the criticisms aimed at the Caralis network is that fact that so many programs are sourced from 2SM (or New FM Newcastle, in the case of some of the FM stations), and are often unpopular, compared to programs from Southern Cross Radio (such as John Laws) and 2GB Sydney (owners of NRL broadcast rights). However, it has been recently announced that some of the AM stations will carry Laws's show, in areas where Macquarie Regional RadioWorks have dropped the program in preference for their own.
