  • WIN TV Breached for Vaccination Story
    WIN TV breached for vaccination story ACMA media release 41/2013 – 7 June WIN Television NSW Pty Ltd (WIN TV) breached two provisions of the Commercial Television Industry Code of Practice in a news report on WIN News Illawarra about measles vaccination that misled its audience. The report was broadcast on 16 August 2012 and concerned an outbreak of measles in south-western Sydney. Included in the story was the following unqualified statement made by a non-expert: ‘All vaccinations, in the medical literature, have been linked with the possibility of causing autism...’ The Australian Communications and Media Authority found that by broadcasting that statement and by conveying a higher level of controversy and uncertainty about immunisation than was justified by the facts, WIN TV had failed to broadcast factual material accurately. ‘The story would have misled an ordinary viewer about the level of risk of vaccinating children,’ said ACMA Chairman, Chris Chapman. The ACMA also found that WIN TV did not make reasonable efforts to correct the significant error of fact. ‘While the ACMA has no power to direct the making of an on-air corrective statement, given the circumstances of this case and the important public health issues involved, the ACMA recommended to WIN TV that it make an on-air statement concerning the ACMA’s findings,’ added Mr Chapman. The licensee has, however, declined to take this opportunity to clarify on air this important public health issue, one which no doubt remains of ongoing concern to its audience and the wider Australian public. The licensee offered to provide a link on its website to the ACMA’s finding.

  • Inquiry Into the ABC Amendment (Local Content) Bill 2014
    Friends of the ABC Tasmania Submission to the Senate Environment and Communications Legislation Committee: Inquiry into The ABC Amendment (Local Content) Bill 2014 Friends of the ABC Tasmania present this submission to highlight our key concerns about the failure of ABC Management and Board to meet its obligations to the Australian public as the national broadcaster. Furthermore we wish to record that the Federal Government has a responsibility to ensure that the ABC is financially viable in order to maintain its role as the national broadcaster. Recent statements by ABC Managing Director Mark Scott announcing specific reduction in ABC services has alarmed FABC Tasmania We are concerned that management has unilaterally declared these cutbacks that were automatically endorsed by the ABC Board without any public consultation. It should not be necessary to remind ABC Management and Board that they are ultimately responsible to the taxpayers of Australia and therefore in decision making involving an estimated 8-10 % budget loss there should have been some public process for indicating how to manage this financial situation on an equitable basis across the organization. There should be transparency in revealing how budget savings could be made if an 8-10% cut was made to all areas of the organization. Instead it appears that ABC Management has decided to waste money on a consultancy firm that will decide how staff will be chosen for redundancy. Yet ABC Management has already selected the programs and services to be arbitrarily suspended without any back up information to justify decisions. For example there was no financial rationale given when announcing the end of statewide regional current affairs.

  • Australian Newsroom Mapping Project Report : May 2021
    Australian Newsroom Mapping Project Report : May 2021 About this project The Public Interest Journalism Initiative (PIJI) tracks indicators of changes to news production and availability through the Australian Newsroom Mapping Project (ANMP). The project launched on 1 April 2020 and tracks changes from 1 January 2019, with new data releases each month. The map captures five change types, four of which can have either negative (contraction) or positive (expansion) attributes. The change types are ordered according to the seriousness of their impact on production or availability. Further detail is provided in section three. Due to limited resources and the significant methodological difficulty in ensuring rigour, the project does not record any information about journalism job gains and losses. More explanation of the process and some guidance for interpreting the data can be found at the end of this report. We do not presume that this is a complete database, but we do believe that this is the most comprehensive record of its kind. We regularly find changes that were missed or unreported at the time of the change, which therefore are added as backdated entries. The data that informs the May 2021 report can be accessed here. This project benefits from contributions by the public and industry. To submit or correct data, or to discuss this report, please email: [email protected].
