QUESTIONS ON NOTICE › Australian Broadcasting Corporation (Question No. 582)
Senator Conroy: The answer to the honourable senator's question is as follows: Coverage of any news issue will be affected by such things as the availability of the material, the impact of the material, whether the specific comments represent a new strand of thought, a new idea or are relevant to a particular running story, and the competition from other news on the day. The ABC is confident that it has covered principal relevant views consistently and fairly.
