I loved this. Dani’s dedication to exposing a scammer was brilliant. Big thanks to the excellent @henriettacook for the tip about this interesting issue. theage.com.au/national/not-t…

Osman Faruqi and I spoke to 20+ First Nations and non-white current and former staff of the ABC for this story. Racism is a problem media-wide, but many feel Aunty needs a cultural shift.

I ❤️ working @ ABC, & covering regional communities (like mountain calf sales!) but we want sustainable careers for regional staff. Regional staff earn about $25k less than metro staff, & many are told they can’t earn any more despite decades of experience(1/2) #DontDiscountABC
