Journalist Laura Tingle has been told by ABC management her comments about Opposition leader Peter Dutton would not have met ABC’s standards of impartiality.
’s chief political correspondent Laura Tingle has been rebuked by the national broadcaster’s management for comments she made about Opposition leader Peter Dutton’s immigration policy at the weekend, and told they “would not have met the ABC’s editorial standards”.
“In my writing and broadcasts over the past two weeks I have observed on several occasions that there were considerable dangers for the way our political discourse would unfold – and for social harmony – in linking migration to the housing crisis. “I regret that when I was making these observations at the Writers’ Festival the nature of the free-flowing panel discussion means they were not surrounded by every quote substantiating them which would have – and had – been included in what I had said earlier on the ABC.I am proud of my work as a journalist at the ABC, on all its platforms, and I let that work speak for itself.
