    For immediate release Thursday 24 September 2009 The Buck stops with ABC Local Radio ABC Local Radio NSW is delighted to announce that triple J Breakfast presenter and ABC personality Robbie Buck will be the new host of the NSW Evenings program - heard across regional Local Radio NSW, 702 ABC Sydney and 666 ABC Canberra. Robbie starts in January 2010 and brings with him over 20 years of experience in the radio industry, a love for Australian music, plus natural skills as an entertainer. “As the Evening Show is heard throughout NSW and the ACT, I'm especially excited that Robbie has a very strong connection to regional NSW, having spent much of his early life in Lismore, and appeared on radio there from a very young age. ” said James O’Brien ABC Local Radio Manager NSW. “In common with Adam Spencer, Simon Marnie, Angela Catterns and many others who have made the transition from triple j to 'grown up radio' I think the appointment demonstrates the significant role the ABC plays in developing both on-air and off-air talent.” Robbie is a highly valued team member of triple j, hosting the popular Breakfast program with The Doctor and Marieke since early 2008. He has hosted Lunch, Drive and Weekend shifts while working with the national youth network for the last 11 years. Robbie was central to the launch and growth of Home and Hosed – an Australian music program including national tours and album compilations giving new Australian performers an industry break and exposure. Robbie also has the unique distinction of having hosted the Hottest 100 of All Time in 1998 and 2009.

  • TRANSCRIPT: Charities Say Rule Changes Will Stifle Advocacy
    TRANSCRIPT Charities say rule changes will ‘stifle’ advocacy 11 August 2021 ABC Radio Sydney Breakfast Hosts Robbie Buck and Wendy Harmer Toby oConnor, CEO National Council of the St Vincent de Paul Society in Australia Buck: Yes, this full-page ad we saw in the paper yesterday, and of course it’s part of an ongoing campaign from charities across the nation, about proposed changes to charitable status. The contributors to the ad yesterday were mainly religious-based organisations. So St Vincent de Paul Society, Catholic Social Services Australia, Anglicare Australia, the Benevolent Society, UnitingCare Australia and the BaptistCare Australia. And this morning we are joined by Toby oConnor who’s the national CEO of St Vincent de Paul Society. Morning Toby. oConnor: Morning Robbie, how are you? Buck: Yeah, we are well. These are strange days that we exist in for so many different reasons. But it’s sort of unusual to see a full-page ad from a group of charities like yourselves. Tell us what’s happening here. oConnor: So, look thanks for your interest in this because we, the major charities, and in fact, all charities, believe that this is a threat to our ability to advocate on behalf of people who don’t have a voice. So, what the government has introduced into the Senate, so it currently sits in the Senate, is a revision to the regulations of the entity that regulates the activities of charities known as the Australian Charities and Not-for-profit-Commission. So, there is a regulator that already exists, and they want to supplement the regulations.

  • Inquiry Into Community Broadcasting
    Submission to the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Communications, Information Technology and the Arts INQUIRY INTO COMMUNITY BROADCASTING CBAA Submission 1. Community Broadcasting Association of Australia Level 3 44-54 Botany Road Alexandria NSW 2015 Phone (03) 9310 2999 Fax: (02) 9319 4545 Contact: Barry Melville Email: [email protected] 17 March 2006 Executive Summary The scope and role of Australian community broadcasting across radio, television, the internet and other broadcasting technologies As at June 2005 there were 442 fully-licensed community radio stations (including remote Indigenous services) and 7 licensed community television services. Total aggregate income for stations in the community radio sector (not including Remote Indigenous Broadcasting services which are yet to be surveyed for the Community Broadcasting Database) in the most recent survey period 2003/04 was $50.7m. In aggregate sources of stations’ income divide up as follows: Sponsorship – 35% Donations – 12% Subscriptions/membership – 7.4% CBF Grants – 6.4% State Government – 2.7% More than 20,000 volunteers contribute to community broadcasting on an ongoing basis. 70% of our services are in rural and regional areas. Nationally more than 7 million Australians (or 45% of people over 15) listen to community radio in each month (source: McNair Ingenuity). The community television sector has a cumulative monthly audience reach of more than 3 million viewers (source: OzTam). The role of community broadcasting is to provide a diverse range of services meeting community needs in ways that are not met by other sectors. Community broadcasting is sustained by the principles of access and participation, volunteerism, diversity, independence and localism.
