The majority of the SBS House Committee stands resolutely with Antoinette Lattouf and joins her in calling on ABC management to apologise and reinstate her position.

#MEAAmedia

The MEAA Freelance committee is alarmed and deeply concerned at information released to the public during recent court proceedings concerning the treatment of Antoinette Lattouf by the ABC and reports concerning other journalists whose employment has allegedly been terminated for sharing personal views and factual material on social media regarding Palestine.

The Nine Publishing house committee stand with their colleagues at Nine Darwin, who have been blindsided by management’s decision to decimate the bureau and cut all but one reporter and one camera operator job.

Darwin viewers will now be left without a local 6pm Nine news bulletin, with viewers to get their nightly news from the Queensland newsroom.

The improvements to this agreement represent an important step forward in securing the quality jobs needed to continue to deliver quality journalism.

Sheer hypocrisy from a government that is seeking to jail Julian #Assange for life and is one of the most grievous threats to #pressfreedom worldwide. #MEAAmedia https://twitter.com/SecPompeo/status/1322889074445869058

Secretary Pompeo on Twitter

“Journalists perform a critical role in society, but they are too often threatened, attacked, or murdered – crimes that often go unpunished. On International Day to #EndImpunity for Crimes against Journalists, we call on all governments to investigate and redress these crimes.”

Imagine being such venal embarrassment of a government, that the same company that lobbied you 2 years ago to restrict the ABC News activities, now comes out and defends the ABC from your cruel, punitive cuts.
