Extraordinary attack from ABC management against the most senior elected union representative at the ABC - Labor should be speaking out against threats by ABC management against Michael Slezak and the MEAA. Critical thinking, critical writing, should never be weaponised against staff at the ABC.

Fight erupts between union and ABC’s head of news

The ABC’s new head of news Simon Robinson is staring down the barrel of a staff revolt just four weeks after joining the public broadcaster, with its union committee labelling a threat of disciplinary action against a senior journalist an attack on press freedom.

The ABC’s Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance house committee called an urgent meeting for its members on Monday after Michael Slezak, who is also the federal president of media at the union, was threatened with disciplinary action over a piece he wrote in The Australian Financial Review.

Amid outcry, NY prosecutors have reopened the criminal investigation into the 7 Cornell gang rapists, a case that was covered up 2 years ago. These assholes would’ve been punished if they had written “free Palestine” instead of “free p*ssy.” Cornell leadership should be investigated too.

I wasn't going to say anything at all, but a few lovely souls expressed concern when I stopped incessantly posting my rage, grief, work, bad humour and fluffy animals.

I have just taken a smidgen of annual leave. It's been a while. And a crucial part of that actually helping me is being offline as much as (fucken) possible for a lil’ bit. The last few years have been… I dunno what the appropriate word is… let's just go with difficult. Hard.

I'm not running away. Not retreating. Just breathing. Being invisible. Being human. I’d encourage everyone to do the same when and if the moment presents itself. The world is heavy, the fight is eternal, resistance is a collective effort, and these machines and platforms - as integral and powerful as they have become - feed on our souls. Please don't worry. Just having a moment. Thank you for caring xx

Tampa was just a jolly jape, according to Alexander Downer who grinned stupidly during the ABC documentary like a schoolboy who had just found a stash of raunchy porn mags. Blind to the human misery and ignoring international law, it was merely a fun game of one-upmanship for the Libs.

Court documents expose Rupert Murdoch’s delusion as a saviour of Western civilisation’s “conservative” ethos. Rupert’s not a conservative. He’s an abuser of press freedom for partisan/vested gains. He trashes democratic institutions. He’s a disgrace to ethical journalism.

An editorial cartoon by Megan Herbert showing a gleaming teardrop shaped rhinestone, from whose many facets shine the following words: goodness, warmth, generosity, empathy, ambition, positivity, family, faith, music, joy, creativity, philanthropy, integrity, intelligence, and determination. In the shadow of the gem is "Dolly Parton, 1946 - 2026"

Dolly Parton was an icon. She was a brilliant songwriter and performer. She was an incredible activist and advocate, helping to donate over 200 million free books to children. She was one of my personal heroes. This is a terrible loss. She will be greatly missed.
