    Senate Standing Committee on Environment and Communications Answers to Senate Estimates Questions on Notice Supplementary Budget Estimates Hearings October 2012 Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy Portfolio Australian Broadcasting Corporation Question No: 139 Program No. ABC Hansard Ref: Page 73 Topic: Mr Loewenstein Senator Abetz asked: Mr Scott: … I should point out that Mr Loewenstein is not an employee of the ABC. As you pointed out, he has appeared as a guest on our programs, but he is not an employee. Senator ABETZ: But he gets paid a fee from time to time for those appearances? Mr Scott: I would have to check on that. I do not know… Senator ABETZ: It was within the week of that column that the ABC took that decision. Compare Mr Milne's column to Mr Lowenstein's offensive comment, which remained in the ether for five weeks before an apology was finally dragged out of him. Is the ABC willing to continue to have Mr Loewenstein appear as a credible panellist on its programs? Mr Scott: That decision was made, I think, at the editorial level of Insiders. The first I have become aware of this incident was this afternoon. I can take that question on notice, but I understand this was a very offensive statement made— Answer: Antony Loewenstein is a freelance journalist, blogger and author and has appeared as a guest and commentator from time to time on various ABC Radio networks. In 2012 he has appeared on triple j’s Hack and Sunday Night Safran, on Radio National on Common Knowledge, on 702 ABC Sydney Afternoons and on 105.7 ABC Darwin Afternoons.

  • The ABC's Commitment to Reflecting and Representing Regional Diversity
    Australian Broadcasting Corporation submission to Senate Environment and Communications References Committee The ABC’s commitment to reflecting and representing regional diversity January 2013 ABC submission to the Senate Environment and Communications References Committee inquiry into the Corporation’s commitment to reflecting and representing regional diversity January 2013 Introduction The ABC welcomes the opportunity to contribute to this inquiry into the Corporation’s commitment to regional diversity. The ABC is fully appreciative of its responsibilities and audience expectations in this area. Over many decades, the Corporation has provided services for, from and about the nation’s many regional communities. No other media organisation has made the investment and demonstrated the commitment to telling stories that are relevant to communities beyond the main population centres. The presence has been constant – even if the nature of the ABC’s contribution has evolved over the years, influenced by economics, technology and changing audience tastes. The Corporation views its work in regional communities as integral to meeting its Charter obligation to “reflect the cultural diversity of the Australian community”.1 The inquiry takes place at a time of major change in the Australian media landscape. Convergence has undermined commercial business models, making it harder to service small, far-flung markets. In regional areas, there has been a diminution in content diversity, a loss of localism in services and a loss of jobs. This has been evident across radio, television and print. The ABC contends that its commitment to regionalism becomes even more important in this era of instability in the media. But in a convergent world, the ABC’s performance and efficiency must be measured across all its platforms, and not viewed through the prism of one.
