  • China for More Than 30 Years
    The History of ABC Foreign Reporting The ABC has had correspondents and a bureau in China for more than 30 years. In the mid 1960s at the start of the Chinese Cultural Revolution, access to China for the foreign media was restricted. The ABC covered China and Hong Kong through a local correspondent in Hong Kong, Patricia Penn, and through the ABC Tokyo correspondent. In July 1971, the Australian Labor Party leader and leader of the Federal Opposition, Gough Whitlam, visited China - accompanied by an ABC news team.

Among the many restrictions imposed on the visiting ABC news team was the requirement that their news film be sealed in a wooden box and despatched through the Chinese Post Office. Nevertheless there were hopes the ABC might soon be able to open a bureau in China. If the A.L.P. gains office at the next Federal elections, then the opening of the first Australian news bureau in Peking by the ABC will boil down to simply whether or not the Commission wants it. Letter from correspondent Philip Koch to ABC following visit to China with Gough Whitlam, August 1971. However, in view of the growing importance of China coverage and the continuing restrictions on access, correspondent John Penlington opened a full ABC bureau in Hong Kong in 1972. In December that year Gough Whitlam became Prime Minister and Canberra established diplomatic relations with Peking (later Beijing).

It’s news when you want it, on your platform – TV, mobile and online.” In this article, the station’s content is analysed across 24 hours of its programming and compared with the same 24 hours of pro- gramming from BBC World. The content is tested for four key values: range of stories; coverage of the big stories; competence in going live to breaking stories; and ability to add value through analysis, debate and context. The examination of the data against these four key values enables an analysis of the nature of the service and assists in assessing whether or not it is providing an enriched and different offering in a busy 24/7 media landscape. Introduction The top line of ABC Australia’s News 24 website states: “ABC News 24 provides around the clock coverage of news events as they break at home and abroad.
