CBAA Submissions

In June 2017, the CBAA made a submission to the newly established Select Committee on the Future of Public Interest Journalism. The Committee will look into the current state of public interest journalism in Australia and around the world, the future of public and community broadcasters in delivering public interest journalism, particularly in underserviced markets like regional Australia, and culturally and linguistically diverse communities and other aspects of public interest journalism, such as fake news. The CBAA's submission adds to the many voices calling for greater support and certainty for Australia’s community broadcasters who deliver high-quality and diverse public interest journalism, particularly in underserviced markets like regional Australia, indigenous and culturally and linguistically diverse communities.
