Newsletter: Restoring Australia’s public broadcaster

IFJ’s Australian affiliate, the Media, Entertainment & Arts Alliance (MEAA) has begun in a community campaign demanding the restoration of government funding for the public broadcaster, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). In 2014 the Australian government cut funding by USD180 million resulting in the loss of about 400 jobs and the cancellation of programming and services. The campaign calls on the community to write to their local member of parliament. Find more information here.
