This thread is worth reading. Disappointing that at this stage, not-for-profit public interest journalism is once again deemed not worthy of DGR status. Giving it DGR status could be a solution to the crisis of lack of media diversity and decline of media in regional Australia.…
Public interest journalism is a public service, and it’s not very profitable! This is why I’ve spent years banging on about the need for news publishers to have access to DGR status. Last week @ozprodcom published a draft report on DGR reform. A thread:
As of December 1, in the #Israel #Gaza war, CPJ has documented: - 61 journalists dead: 54 Palestinian, 4 Israeli, and 3 Lebanese. - 11 injured - 3 missing - 19 arrested - Multiple assaults, threats, cyberattacks, censorship, and killings of family members cpj.org/2023/12/journa…
The #Israel #Gaza war is taking an unprecedented toll on journalists. 📸 CPJ has compiled photos of journalists working under extreme, heartbreaking, and sometimes fatal circumstances to cover the fighting. View them here ⬇️ cpj.org/2023/10/photos…
Melbourne friends - this is tomorrow! Join @Ageinvestigates @zdaniel @MrRexPatrick @KobraMoradi, former whistleblower Sharon Kelsey and I talking about whistleblowing, press freedom and the prosecution of David McBride (@MurdochCadell) droptheprosecutions.org.au/truth_on_trial…
#pressfredom This is about taking a moment to pay respect to our fallen colleagues. As true journalists this is impartial stance on the current events it’s about paying respect to the lives lost.
How can it be that @AlboMP & @MarkDreyfusKCMP are content with having the first trial relating to Afghanistan war crimes be a prosecution of the lawyer who blew the whistle on those crimes? One had hoped for much better. #auspol abc.net.au/news/2023-11-0…
MEAA staff and members will join a vigil at ABC Southbank in Melbourne at 12.30pm today for ABC colleague Roshdi Sarraj & the other 31 journalists & media workers killed in the Gaza conflict. #MEAAmedia #pressfreedom #endimpunity
Today is journalist #DawitIsaak’s birthday. It is his 22nd birthday spent behind bars in #Eritrea. @pressfreedom reiterates its call for authorities to provide Dawit’s proof of life, and to unconditionally release him and other detained journalists. raoulwallenbergcentre.org/en/news/2023-1…
During any conflict, journalists and media workers are civilians under international humanitarian law. Facilities and equipment utilized for reporting and disseminating news are also civilian structures. They must be respected and protected. Journalists are #NotATarget.
