This is the third time this year that Jacinta Price has blamed the media after a mistake. First her use of travel entitlements, then her Make Australia Great Again speech and now her comments about Indian migrants. Common thread? https://t.co/eQSJ87vlcy

If you see a Eureka flag today know that, Raffaello Carboni, an Italian who helped create flag, said:

'I call upon all diggers, irrespective of colour, religion or creed, to salute the Southern Cross as a refuge for all the oppressed from all nations on earth.'

The overwhelming majority of respondents to our AI: Stop the Theft survey believe technology companies, such as Meta, Open AI, and Amazon, should be forced to pay for the work they steal to train their increasingly profitable AI models.

The United States is supposed to be a leader in supporting a free press and protecting the rights of journalists to do their jobs. We stand with our @withMEAA family and condemn the shooting of journalist Lauren Tomasi.

More Palestinian journalists killed by Israel in what is the most dangerous place on Earth for reporters - and all while Israel refuses to provide access to Gaza for international media https://t.co/bBllTbrkUn

Amazing outcome for freelance journos at Nine Publishing. MEAA members will continue demanding fair pay - whether they’re inside or outside the IR system.

[MEAA @withMEAA]

After a huge year of campaigning, today freelancers at Nine newspapers have won a new minimum rate for their work! For the majority of freelancers, this increase represents an 11% increase.
All Nine freelancers are invited to a crucial meeting:

Pay is going up for 3mil workers and the floor rises for everyone. Wouldn’t happen without unions

[Victorian Trades Hall Council @VicUnions]

BREAKING NEWS: Australian workers have won a 3.5% minimum wage increase, effective 1 July. This will directly benefit about 20% of workers paid at minimum award rates, and have positive flow on effects for all workers across the country. More info to come.

“Australia's journalist union, @withMEAA told the ABC it had been calling on the federal government to regulate AI. Chief executive Erin Madeley says generative AI is making it difficult for the public to decifer fact from fiction.”

[ABC News @abcnews]

The ABC was among hundreds of media outlets which reported on the incredible footage. Experts say the video was at least partially manipulated by artificial intelligence.

This is a stark reminder that Australia’s whistleblower protections are fundamentally broken and underscores the urgent need for reform to ensure truth-tellers are not punished for acting in the public interest.

With my good friends and inspirations @antoinette_news and Jan Fran who speak truth to power without fear or favour.

Thank you for pulverising a stubborn path ahead, where every inch is hard-earned.

RT @withMEAA: Whistleblowers are vital for a functioning democracy, but the laws that protect them and the journalists they work with in Au…

Amid Dutton’s ‘hate media’ and Trump’s despotism, press freedom is more vital than ever via @crikey_news https://t.co/haIYDln1T2

[MEAA @withMEAA]

Dutton’s attacks on the ABC and the Guardian are attacks on journalists who uphold the MEAA Code of Ethics.
Peter Dutton needs to retract his statement, apologise and commit to supporting press freedom and the independence of the ABC.
