He says many people want to commemorate ANZAC or Remembrance Day for Australia's veterans from WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and the Middle East. He mentions the clash with Indigenous people is a separate issue. He says Fathi has said ANZAC Day is less popular because there has been a fall in attendances in Gallipoli and Australia since 2015.

ASR: 36,362 AUD Audience: 237,000 (139,000 female 16+ / 98,000 male 16+ ) Duration: 12mins 42secs Summary: Interview with Romain Fathi, Senior Lecturer in History, Flinders University. Mitchell notes an article written by Fathi suggested that the popularity of Anzac Day is waning and they need to reinvent it. Fathi recalls 2015 was the centenary of the ANZAC landing at Gallipoli. He says tens of thousands of people attended Anzac Day. He states about 85,000 people attended in Melbourne in 2016w while only 25,000 attended in 2019. He notes there is a decline across the country including Perth, Adelaide and Brisbane. He says there are no big anniversaries coming up. He states it appears that some Australians are getting tired of the patriotic and nationalistic tones of the commemorations. He notes some people told him during his research that Anzac Day has become a bit political. He says the celebration of war has been divisive. He states there is also the challenge of the recent report of alleged war crimes in Iraq [sic] by members of the special forces. He notes it is hard for Australians born overseas to connect to the ANZAC legend if they do not have veterans in the family. He says the War Memorial has worked on making Anzac Day more inclusive by telling more stories about German ANZACs and French ANZACs. He states there are suggestions to include the frontier wars in Australia. He states the Canadian war memorial is more straightforward about the frontier wars. Mitchell states Les Carline said when he was launching his book Gallipoli that Anzac Day is Australia's national day. Fathi notes younger people are becoming sceptical of it. He states the media turned away from the Anzac Day during the Vietnam War. He says the younger generation fails to see the relevance of Anzac Day in light of issues like climate change.

The review has been ordered after claims that challenged the integrity of how the ABC audits figures. ABC chairman Stephen Hollings said the review would encompass the organisation‟s rules, definitions, and auditing procedures as well as the long-running issue of more frequent circulation data. He predicted the findings would be put to the ABC general committee for a vote within three months. Hollings said the process had been “accelerated” in light of recent claims that newspaper and magazine publishers were still using free or discounted copies to boost figures. Media Federation of Australia chairman John Sintras wrote to the ABC demanding an investigation into claims that surfaced in mid-April on the Crikey internet site.

  • Aap Submission to the Senate Inquiry on Media Diversity
    AAP SUBMISSION TO THE SENATE INQUIRY ON MEDIA DIVERSITY AAP thanks the Senate for the opportunity to make a submission on the Inquiry into Media Diversity in Australia. What is a newswire A newswire is essentially a wholesaler of fact-based news content (text, pictures and video). It reports on politics, business, courts, sport and other news and provides this to other media outlets such as newspapers, radio and TV news. Often the newswire provides the only reporting on a subject and hence its decisions as to what to report play a very important role in informing Australians about matters of public interest. It is essential democratic infrastructure. A newswire often partners with other global newswire agencies to bring international stories to a domestic audience and also to take domestic stories out to a global audience. Newswires provided by news agencies have traditionally served as the backbone of the news supply of their respective countries. Due to their business model they contribute strongly to the diversity of media. In general there is a price for a defined number of circulation – be it printed papers, recipients of TV or radio broadcasters or digital recipients. The bigger the circulation, the higher the price thus making the same newswire accessible for small media with less purchasing power as well as for large media conglomerates with strong financial resources.1 ​ This co-operative business model has been practically accepted world-wide since the founding of the Associated Press (AP) in the USA in the mid-19th century. Newswire agencies are “among the oldest ​ media institutions to survive the evolution of media production from the age of the telegraph to the age of 2 platform technologies”.
