Submission on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Commitment to Reflecting and Representing Regional Diversity. Date: 19
Submission on The Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s commitment to reflecting and representing regional diversity. Date: 19 January 2013 Dear Sir / Madam I believe it is a huge mistake and a dereliction of duties for the current Managing Director of the ABC, Mark Scott to disinvest our national broadcaster of regional assets. The closure of production facilities in WA, SA, Qld and Tasmania appears to represent a move to deliberately devalue the ABC. The move seems irrational when a number of the best and most popular programs on ABC television and radio platforms have been terminated. My concerns and impetus for this letter to this inquiry is that the moves by the Managing Director of the ABC are politically driven. Why would the ABC’s Managing Director want to closed down regional production to simply channel more resources into politically biased programs such as The Drum, the 7:30 Report or the RN’s Breakfast with Fran Kelly. There was value coming out of the production assets in each state. For us the ABC audience (the shareholders), the value of regional production can be measured by the popularity of informative quality productions such as the Gardening Australia. Formerly anchored in Hobart and hosted by Peter Cundall, the Gardening Australia program had a unique quality, not the least because it was produced in Tasmania. It appears irrational to move production of such a quality program to Sydney without Peter Cundall. Then a decision was made to discontinue The Collectors, another quality production from the Tasmanian assets of the ABC. The termination of these two programs from Tasmania represents a reduction in value not only to the national audience (the shareholders) but also and more worrying, a loss of assets in terms of human resources. -
