"title": "Snakes, surprises and a comeback: The highs, lows and whoas of the 2026 Logies",
"body": "The trophies have been handed out, the carpet rolled up, and the sequins from Robert Irwin's black jumpsuit have been vacuumed off the floor of The Star, which can only mean one thing: The 66th TV Week Logie Awards have officially wrapped. For those who didn't manage to stick around for the nearly four-hour broadcast (honestly, no one can blame you), fear not because deputy TV editor Meg Watson and culture reporter Nell Geraets were up until the wee hours watching and live blogging each moment. Here's what you missed.\n\nIt's never easy taking over a job that someone else has smashed for the past three years, so all eyes were on Robert Irwin on Sunday night. Could he live up to Sam Pang's on-stage charm? In hindsight, we were fools to question anything. This is a guy who wrangles crocs for a living, and who could literally stop traffic with his megawatt smile - of course he won us over.\n\nAt just 22 years old, Irwin owned the Logies stage, cycling through three costume changes, doing the worm with Peking Duk, and lending a helping hand to struggling presenters (looking at you, Julia Morris). But the pièce de résistance was when he whipped out a snake. A real snake - two, in fact, as well as a bonus blue-tongued lizard. Dressed in his khaki Australia Zoo uniform, Irwin first pulled out a small, slithery serpent, which he proceeded to place right in front of comedian Melanie Bracewell. He then levelled up, draping a massive python around the neck of a very nervous Luke McGregor. It was the Logies reptile show we never knew we needed, and I, for one, hope it becomes a permanent fixture. NG\n\nIt was only a year ago that Magda Szubanski brought tears to everyone's eyes through a pre-recorded message after being inducted into the Logies Hall of Fame. She was too sick to attend the event then, but a lot can change in a year. The beloved actress and comedian - who in February announced she was in remission from a rare form of blood cancer - returned to the Logies stage to present the Gold to Sam Pang. Boy, was it an exuberant comeback, bringing everyone to their feet. One person even impulsively shouted out their adoration, to which Szubanski shouted back, with a slight air of feigned aggression, \"No, I love YOU\". This is also Magda we're talking about, so of course there was a bit. She rocked up as Kath & Kim's Sharon Strezelecki, dressed as an Australia Zoo trainee (a layered performance!) in a torn up khaki uniform and covered in scratches. She'd fallen into the tiger enclosure, apparently. It was silly, wild and peak Magda. We couldn't have asked for more. NG\n\nIt's not a surprise Claudia Karvan won a Logie last night. She's one of our biggest stars, who already had 13 nominations and three wins to her name. And she delivered an extraordinary performance in Homebodies, the series for which she was nominated. But I was wildly (and pleasantly) surprised that enough voters had seen this SBS digital original series to award it over much splashier titles. It was an extraordinary moment, with Karvan calling it her \"most significant and important win\" yet. The creator of the series, AP Pobjoy, and Karvan's co-star, Luke Wiltshire, watched on in tears as Karvan talked about the privilege of playing the mother of a young trans man and being part of a story that's told from the creative team's lived experiences. \"May all parents of trans kids and trans kids feel seen and heard,\" she said.\n\nKarvan's claim that this is the \"first trans story at the Logies\" isn't quite true - Carlotta, a telemovie about transgender cabaret performer Carol Kaye was nominated in 2015. But it is the first win. Hopefully, this encourages more people to seek out the short series (it really is beautiful) and emboldens more commissioners to embrace diverse stories.\n\nDeborah Mailman made history last night as the first Aboriginal inductee to the Hall of Fame. As Hunter Page-Lochard told us on the red carpet beforehand, it's a \"much deserved award that should have come sooner\". But boy, was it beautiful seeing her get properly honoured. The beloved actor, who got her start on The Secret Life of Us, was tearing up at the first mention of her name and was then praised by the likes of Miranda Tapsell and Cate Blanchett via a tribute package before receiving a standing ovation. It was a fitting recognition of her work, over more than three decades in the industry. But also a moving reflection on the change that has happened in that industry, too. \"As I look around the room, I'm so thrilled to see so many of our mob being celebrated tonight,\" Mailman said. It was a huge night for Indigenous storytelling and performers, with several categories stacked with First Nations actors including Page-Lochard, Mark Coles Smith, Thomas Weatherall, Tuuli Narkle and Lila McGuire and the ABC series Goolagong picking up two wins. MW\n\nThe Logies wouldn't be the Logies without presenters attempting an excruciatingly long gag that doesn't quite work. But whatever nonsense Eddie McGuire and Julia Morris were pulling with the teleprompter, before announcing best lifestyle program, was some of the worst I've seen. The pair joked about not being able to read the autocue and then were helped out by Robert Irwin who read a gag about these \"young upstarts taking our jobs on TV\". But then the bit just kept going... To the point that no one knew if they were actually serious or not. This ceremony is already roughly 11 hours long, I could do with those minutes of my life back. MW\n\nLook, the Logies has never been known for its musical performances (and perhaps that's a good thing lest they, god forbid, extend the four-hour runtime). But even so, Peking Duk's wishy-washy interlude felt lacklustre. The DJ duo Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles promised a party ahead of the show, but once they were there - accompanied by R&B singer Kye and a bunch of milk crates - it felt more like a budget house party, replete with a palm tree backdrop straight out of GTA: Vice City. Perhaps they simply weren't given enough time to properly show their chops. But regardless, it says a lot when the best part of the performance is when Robert Irwin does the worm. Thankfully though, both Casey Donovan, who helped opened the show, and Katie Noonan, who performed for the In Memoriam segment, killed it. NG\n\nRobert Irwin didn't just come equipped with spicy dance moves. The 22-year-old followed up a solid opening performance from Casey Donovan with a pretty fiery monologue, throwing barbs at Karl Stefanovic, Dave Hughes and even his bosses at Channel 10. \"People say an awards show host has to be cynical, but I'm a positive guy. Which is why I took it at face value when Channel 10 told me I'm a Celeb was having a great season and its future was totally secure. Lesson learned,\" he said, referring to Channel 10's decision in May to rest I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, which Irwin had been co-hosting with Julia Morris.\n\nHe followed that with a swipe at Hughes, who has recently taken it upon himself to unload on the Victorian government. \"I hear that Channel 10 is developing a reboot of Hughesy We Have a Problem,\" he said. \"I think it's called: No Seriously, Hughesy, We Have a Problem.\" And finally, Stefanovic caught some strays following his fast-tracked exit from the Today show and controversial new podcast. \"Just a quick bit of housekeeping: Unfortunately, Karl Stefanovic didn't RSVP tonight. Which means we didn't need to hire quite as many bartenders. But we did save him a seat. It's over there to the right - the far right.\" Well played, Irwin, well played. NG\n\nUsually new categories at the Logies are named after prominent people who have already died or retired, and last night showed us why. The alternative is extremely awkward. Legendary sports presenter Bruce McAvaney was nominated for a new award last night, named in his honour: the Bruce McAvaney award for most popular sports presenter. As fellow presenter Johanna Griggs told us on stage, this is because he is \"the most prepared caller in this country\" and \"the most extraordinary man alive\". But apparently, not quite as extraordinary as Jelena Dokic who won the award right out from under him. Stranger still: McAvaney was unwell and couldn't attend the ceremony at all to get his flowers (or diffuse the tension).\n\nWhat were your highs and lows of\n\nlast night's Logie Awards?

Boy, was it an exuberant comeback, bringing everyone to their feet. One person even impulsively shouted out their adoration, to which Szubanski shouted back, with a slight air of feigned aggression, \"No, I love YOU\". This is also Magda we're talking about, so of course there was a bit. She rocked up as Kath & Kim's Sharon Strezelecki, dressed as an Australia Zoo trainee (a layered performance!) in a torn up khaki uniform and covered in scratches. She'd fallen into the tiger enclosure, apparently. It was silly, wild and peak Magda. We couldn't have asked for more. NG\n\nIt's not a surprise Claudia Karvan won a Logie last night. She's one of our biggest stars, who already had 13 nominations and three wins to her name. And she delivered an extraordinary performance in Homebodies, the series for which she was nominated. But I was wildly (and pleasantly) surprised that enough voters had seen this SBS digital original series to award it over much splashier titles. It was an extraordinary moment, with Karvan calling it her \"most significant and important win\" yet. The creator of the series, AP Pobjoy, and Karvan's co-star, Luke Wiltshire, watched on in tears as Karvan talked about the privilege of playing the mother of a young trans man and being part of a story that's told from the creative team's lived experiences. \"May all parents of trans kids and trans kids feel seen and heard,\" she said.\n\nKarvan's claim that this is the \"first trans story at the Logies\" isn't quite true - Carlotta, a telemovie about transgender cabaret performer Carol Kaye was nominated in 2015. But it is the first win. Hopefully, this encourages more people to seek out the short series (it really is beautiful) and emboldens more commissioners to embrace diverse stories.\n\nDeborah Mailman made history last night as the first Aboriginal inductee to the Hall of Fame. As Hunter Page-Lochard told us on the red carpet beforehand, it's a \"much deserved award that should have come sooner\". But boy, was it beautiful seeing her get properly honoured. The beloved actor, who got her start on The Secret Life of Us, was tearing up at the first mention of her name and was then praised by the likes of Miranda Tapsell and Cate Blanchett via a tribute package before receiving a standing ovation. It was a fitting recognition of her work, over more than three decades in the industry. But also a moving reflection on the change that has happened in that industry, too. \"As I look around the room, I'm so thrilled to see so many of our mob being celebrated tonight,\" Mailman said. It was a huge night for Indigenous storytelling and performers, with several categories stacked with First Nations actors including Page-Lochard, Mark Coles Smith, Thomas Weatherall, Tuuli Narkle and Lila McGuire and the ABC series Goolagong picking up two wins. MW\n\nThe Logies wouldn't be the Logies without presenters attempting an excruciatingly long gag that doesn't quite work. But whatever nonsense Eddie McGuire and Julia Morris were pulling with the teleprompter, before announcing best lifestyle program, was some of the worst I've seen. The pair joked about not being able to read the autocue and then were helped out by Robert Irwin who read a gag about these \"young upstarts taking our jobs on TV\". But then the bit just kept going... To the point that no one knew if they were actually serious or not. This ceremony is already roughly 11 hours long, I could do with those minutes of my life back. MW\n\nLook, the Logies has never been known for its musical performances (and perhaps that's a good thing lest they, god forbid, extend the four-hour runtime). But even so, Peking Duk's wishy-washy interlude felt lacklustre. The DJ duo Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles promised a party ahead of the show, but once they were there - accompanied by R&B singer Kye and a bunch of milk crates - it felt more like a budget house party, replete with a palm tree backdrop straight out of GTA: Vice City. Perhaps they simply weren't given enough time to properly show their chops. But regardless, it says a lot when the best part of the performance is when Robert Irwin does the worm. Thankfully though, both Casey Donovan, who helped opened the show, and Katie Noonan, who performed for the In Memoriam segment, killed it. NG\n\nRobert Irwin didn't just come equipped with spicy dance moves. The 22-year-old followed up a solid opening performance from Casey Donovan with a pretty fiery monologue, throwing barbs at Karl Stefanovic, Dave Hughes and even his bosses at Channel 10. \"People say an awards show host has to be cynical, but I'm a positive guy. Which is why I took it at face value when Channel 10 told me I'm a Celeb was having a great season and its future was totally secure. Lesson learned,\" he said, referring to Channel 10's decision in May to rest I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, which Irwin had been co-hosting with Julia Morris.\n\nHe followed that with a swipe at Hughes, who has recently taken it upon himself to unload on the Victorian government. \"I hear that Channel 10 is developing a reboot of Hughesy We Have a Problem,\" he said. \"I think it's called: No Seriously, Hughesy, We Have a Problem.\" And finally, Stefanovic caught some strays following his fast-tracked exit from the Today show and controversial new podcast. \"Just a quick bit of housekeeping: Unfortunately, Karl Stefanovic didn't RSVP tonight. Which means we didn't need to hire quite as many bartenders. But we did save him a seat. It's over there to the right - the far right.\" Well played, Irwin, well played. NG\n\nUsually new categories at the Logies are named after prominent people who have already died or retired, and last night showed us why. The alternative is extremely awkward. Legendary sports presenter Bruce McAvaney was nominated for a new award last night, named in his honour: the Bruce McAvaney award for most popular sports presenter. As fellow presenter Johanna Griggs told us on stage, this is because he is \"the most prepared caller in this country\" and \"the most extraordinary man alive\". But apparently, not quite as extraordinary as Jelena Dokic who won the award right out from under him. Stranger still: McAvaney was unwell and couldn't attend the ceremony at all to get his flowers (or diffuse the tension).\n\nWhat were your highs and lows of\n\nlast night's Logie Awards?

"body": "The trophies have been handed out, the carpet rolled up, and the sequins from Robert Irwin's black jumpsuit have been vacuumed off the floor of The Star, which can only mean one thing: The 66th TV Week Logie Awards have officially wrapped. For those who didn't manage to stick around for the nearly four-hour broadcast (honestly, no one can blame you), fear not because deputy TV editor Meg Watson and culture reporter Nell Geraets were up until the wee hours watching and live blogging each moment. Here's what you missed.\n\nIt's never easy taking over a job that someone else has smashed for the past three years, so all eyes were on Robert Irwin on Sunday night. Could he live up to Sam Pang's on-stage charm? In hindsight, we were fools to question anything. This is a guy who wrangles crocs for a living, and who could literally stop traffic with his megawatt smile - of course he won us over.\n\nAt just 22 years old, Irwin owned the Logies stage, cycling through three costume changes, doing the worm with Peking Duk, and lending a helping hand to struggling presenters (looking at you, Julia Morris). But the pièce de résistance was when he whipped out a snake. A real snake - two, in fact, as well as a bonus blue-tongued lizard. Dressed in his khaki Australia Zoo uniform, Irwin first pulled out a small, slithery serpent, which he proceeded to place right in front of comedian Melanie Bracewell. He then levelled up, draping a massive python around the neck of a very nervous Luke McGregor. It was the Logies reptile show we never knew we needed, and I, for one, hope it becomes a permanent fixture. NG\n\nIt was only a year ago that Magda Szubanski brought tears to everyone's eyes through a pre-recorded message after being inducted into the Logies Hall of Fame. She was too sick to attend the event then, but a lot can change in a year. The beloved actress and comedian - who in February announced she was in remission from a rare form of blood cancer - returned to the Logies stage to present the Gold to Sam Pang. Boy, was it an exuberant comeback, bringing everyone to their feet.

"title": "Snakes, surprises and a comeback: The highs, lows and whoas of the 2026 Logies",
"body": "The trophies have been handed out, the carpet rolled up, and the sequins from Robert Irwin's black jumpsuit have been vacuumed off the floor of The Star, which can only mean one thing: The 66th TV Week Logie Awards have officially wrapped. For those who didn't manage to stick around for the nearly four-hour broadcast (honestly, no one can blame you), fear not because deputy TV editor Meg Watson and culture reporter Nell Geraets were up until the wee hours watching and live blogging each moment. Here's what you missed.\n\nIt's never easy taking over a job that someone else has smashed for the past three years, so all eyes were on Robert Irwin on Sunday night. Could he live up to Sam Pang's on-stage charm? In hindsight, we were fools to question anything. This is a guy who wrangles crocs for a living, and who could literally stop traffic with his megawatt smile - of course he won us over.\n\nAt just 22 years old, Irwin owned the Logies stage, cycling through three costume changes, doing the worm with Peking Duk, and lending a helping hand to struggling presenters (looking at you, Julia Morris). But the pièce de résistance was when he whipped out a snake. A real snake - two, in fact, as well as a bonus blue-tongued lizard. Dressed in his khaki Australia Zoo uniform, Irwin first pulled out a small, slithery serpent, which he proceeded to place right in front of comedian Melanie Bracewell. He then levelled up, draping a massive python around the neck of a very nervous Luke McGregor. It was the Logies reptile show we never knew we needed, and I, for one, hope it becomes a permanent fixture. NG\n\nIt was only a year ago that Magda Szubanski brought tears to everyone's eyes through a pre-recorded message after being inducted into the Logies Hall of Fame. She was too sick to attend the event then, but a lot can change in a year. The beloved actress and comedian - who in February announced she was in remission from a rare form of blood cancer - returned to the Logies stage to present the Gold to Sam Pang. Boy, was it an exuberant comeback, bringing everyone to their feet. One person even impulsively shouted out their adoration, to which Szubanski shouted back, with a slight air of feigned aggression, \"No, I love YOU\". This is also Magda we're talking about, so of course there was a bit. She rocked up as Kath & Kim's Sharon Strezelecki, dressed as an Australia Zoo trainee (a layered performance!) in a torn up khaki uniform and covered in scratches. She'd fallen into the tiger enclosure, apparently. It was silly, wild and peak Magda. We couldn't have asked for more. NG\n\nIt's not a surprise Claudia Karvan won a Logie last night. She's one of our biggest stars, who already had 13 nominations and three wins to her name. And she delivered an extraordinary performance in Homebodies, the series for which she was nominated. But I was wildly (and pleasantly) surprised that enough voters had seen this SBS digital original series to award it over much splashier titles. It was an extraordinary moment, with Karvan calling it her \"most significant and important win\" yet. The creator of the series, AP Pobjoy, and Karvan's co-star, Luke Wiltshire, watched on in tears as Karvan talked about the privilege of playing the mother of a young trans man and being part of a story that's told from the creative team's lived experiences. \"May all parents of trans kids and trans kids feel seen and heard,\" she said.\n\nKarvan's claim that this is the \"first trans story at the Logies\" isn't quite true - Carlotta, a telemovie about transgender cabaret performer Carol Kaye was nominated in 2015. But it is the first win. Hopefully, this encourages more people to seek out the short series (it really is beautiful) and emboldens more commissioners to embrace diverse stories.\n\nDeborah Mailman made history last night as the first Aboriginal inductee to the Hall of Fame. As Hunter Page-Lochard told us on the red carpet beforehand, it's a \"much deserved award that should have come sooner\". But boy, was it beautiful seeing her get properly honoured. The beloved actor, who got her start on The Secret Life of Us, was tearing up at the first mention of her name and was then praised by the likes of Miranda Tapsell and Cate Blanchett via a tribute package before receiving a standing ovation. It was a fitting recognition of her work, over more than three decades in the industry. But also a moving reflection on the change that has happened in that industry, too. \"As I look around the room, I'm so thrilled to see so many of our mob being celebrated tonight,\" Mailman said. It was a huge night for Indigenous storytelling and performers, with several categories stacked with First Nations actors including Page-Lochard, Mark Coles Smith, Thomas Weatherall, Tuuli Narkle and Lila McGuire and the ABC series Goolagong picking up two wins. MW\n\nThe Logies wouldn't be the Logies without presenters attempting an excruciatingly long gag that doesn't quite work. But whatever nonsense Eddie McGuire and Julia Morris were pulling with the teleprompter, before announcing best lifestyle program, was some of the worst I've seen. The pair joked about not being able to read the autocue and then were helped out by Robert Irwin who read a gag about these \"young upstarts taking our jobs on TV\". But then the bit just kept going... To the point that no one knew if they were actually serious or not. This ceremony is already roughly 11 hours long, I could do with those minutes of my life back. MW\n\nLook, the Logies has never been known for its musical performances (and perhaps that's a good thing lest they, god forbid, extend the four-hour runtime). But even so, Peking Duk's wishy-washy interlude felt lacklustre. The DJ duo Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles promised a party ahead of the show, but once they were there - accompanied by R&B singer Kye and a bunch of milk crates - it felt more like a budget house party, replete with a palm tree backdrop straight out of GTA: Vice City. Perhaps they simply weren't given enough time to properly show their chops. But regardless, it says a lot when the best part of the performance is when Robert Irwin does the worm. Thankfully though, both Casey Donovan, who helped opened the show, and Katie Noonan, who performed for the In Memoriam segment, killed it. NG\n\nRobert Irwin didn't just come equipped with spicy dance moves. The 22-year-old followed up a solid opening performance from Casey Donovan with a pretty fiery monologue, throwing barbs at Karl Stefanovic, Dave Hughes and even his bosses at Channel 10. \"People say an awards show host has to be cynical, but I'm a positive guy. Which is why I took it at face value when Channel 10 told me I'm a Celeb was having a great season and its future was totally secure. Lesson learned,\" he said, referring to Channel 10's decision in May to rest I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, which Irwin had been co-hosting with Julia Morris.\n\nHe followed that with a swipe at Hughes, who has recently taken it upon himself to unload on the Victorian government. \"I hear that Channel 10 is developing a reboot of Hughesy We Have a Problem,\" he said. \"I think it's called: No Seriously, Hughesy, We Have a Problem.\" And finally, Stefanovic caught some strays following his fast-tracked exit from the Today show and controversial new podcast. \"Just a quick bit of housekeeping: Unfortunately, Karl Stefanovic didn't RSVP tonight. Which means we didn't need to hire quite as many bartenders. But we did save him a seat. It's over there to the right - the far right.\" Well played, Irwin, well played. NG\n\nUsually new categories at the Logies are named after prominent people who have already died or retired, and last night showed us why. The alternative is extremely awkward. Legendary sports presenter Bruce McAvaney was nominated for a new award last night, named in his honour: the Bruce McAvaney award for most popular sports presenter. As fellow presenter Johanna Griggs told us on stage, this is because he is \"the most prepared caller in this country\" and \"the most extraordinary man alive\". But apparently, not quite as extraordinary as Jelena Dokic who won the award right out from under him. Stranger still: McAvaney was unwell and couldn't attend the ceremony at all to get his flowers (or diffuse the tension).\n\nWhat were your highs and lows of\n\nlast night's Logie Awards?

"title": "Twitchers excited by sighting of rare migratory shorebird",
"body": "A migratory bird expert does not know what the redshank's next move will be, but birdwatchers will be keeping a close watch on any more arrivals.\n\nIt has distinctive orange-red legs and the word \"common\" in its name, but in Queensland, this migratory shorebird is incredibly rare.\n\nBirdwatchers Sally Sheldon and Martin Cachard were surprised when they spotted a common redshank during routine monitoring surveys at the Cairns Esplanade mudflats on Sunday.\n\nIt is believed to be only the second recorded sighting of the species in Queensland and the first since 1987, when two were spotted at the same location.\n\nMs Sheldon, from BirdLife Australia, said she had \"mixed\" feelings in the moment.\n\n\"You don't like to see a bird looking slightly confused,\" she said.\n\n\"We don't quite know what this particular individual is going to do; whether it's going to hang around for a while or keep heading further south for the summer.\"\n\nAbout 37 species of migratory shorebirds migrate to Australia to feed, moult and replenish their feathers during the warmer months after breeding in the northern hemisphere.\n\nHowever, that does not include the common redshank, which typically only reaches South-East Asia after breeding in East Asia.\n\n\"Somehow, this particular individual is one of the very few that overshoots the mark,\" Ms Sheldon said.\n\nA 'significant' sighting\n\nRichard Fuller from the University of Queensland said there was \"no doubt this individual will be studied very carefully\".\n\n\"If it becomes part of a pattern where more and more of them show up in Queensland, that might suggest this bird's story is changing, so it's always good to keep an eye on these things,\" Professor Fuller said.\n\nHe said small numbers of common redshank typically migrated each year to northern Western Australia and parts of the Northern Territory.\n\n\"From a birdwatching point of view, [this sighting] is highly significant,\" he said.\n\nProfessor Fuller said the redshank \"might settle back into its regular migration\" after replenishing its energy in Cairns.\n\n\"On the other hand, sometimes these birds just hang around for years after they get displaced and end up, if you like, in the wrong place,\" he said.\n\n\"It's part of how they can adapt to a changing world.\"\n\nProfessor Fuller said there had been severe declines in numbers of many migratory shorebird species across Australia, linked to losses of coastal habitats.\n\nHr said the common redshank \"doesn't seem to have undergone such severe decline as some of the others\".\n\n\"That's perhaps why we're seeing one show up in a new place,\" Professor Fuller said.\n\nMs Sheldon said the adult redshank still had much of its breeding plumage, but its sex was unknown.\n\nThe birdwatchers abandoned their survey to properly record the bird, with word spreading quickly through the twitcher community.\n\n\"Most Australian birdwatchers connect through social media and news of rare sightings gets spread in an instant,\" Professor Fuller said.\n\nMs Sheldon said on Monday that at least five birdwatchers had long lenses trained on the bird over the mudflats.\n\nShe said birdwatching was a rewarding hobby.\n\n\"It forces you to get outside yourself and see the world through a natural being's eyes,\" she said.",

"title": "ABC removes more episodes by sacked reporter Mahmood Fazal",
"body": "A separate ABC Ombudsman review into two Four Corners episodes is still underway.\n\nThe ABC has withdrawn a further two episodes by sacked Four Corners reporter Mahmood Fazal and edited another due to concerns about anonymous interviewees.\n\nFazal's employment was terminated in May after an ABC investigation into his appearance on a podcast with a former underworld figure last year, ABC managing director Hugh Marks confirmed at a Senate estimates hearing in May.\n\nSince then, two episodes he reported for Four Corners, titled Cocaine Nation and Meth Highway, have been removed by the ABC due to accuracy concerns. A Background Briefing audio program he reported, titled Remy was 12 when she became a drug dealer, was also removed later in July.\n\nIn a statement, the ABC said it completed a review of anonymous interviewees in all stories reported by Fazal for the two programs, which identified concerns with three more programs.\n\n\"The review found that in each of these cases ABC verification policies concerning the use of anonymous interviewees were not followed to a level that meets our editorial standards,\" the statement said.\n\n\"Therefore, in order to ensure complete confidence in published content, we have taken the decision to remove them.\"\n\nTwo stories -- Four Corners episode Silent Orders and Background Briefing episode Meet the teens at the frontline of organised crime -- have been removed from ABC platforms.\n\nA short segment contributed by Fazal in the Four Corners episode The Postcode Wars, in which he says he visits a drug \"trap house\", has been edited out.\n\n\"Outside of this segment the episode meets our editorial standards and will remain available online with an editor's note,\" the statement said.\n\n\"The ABC is committed to journalism of the highest standard. Maintaining the trust of Australians depends on upholding those standards and we take any concerns about our journalism seriously.\"\n\nFrom Mongols bikie to award-winning reporter\n\nFazal, a former member of the Mongols bikie club, is an award-winning journalist specialising in reporting on crime, violence, imprisonment and terrorism, whose reporting has appeared in VICE, The Guardian, Rolling Stone, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Monthly and The Saturday Paper.\n\nAfter the Four Corners episodes were removed, Fazal said in a statement posted to social media that he was \"shocked\" by the decision.\n\n\"I believe the process ABC is following and its decisions so far set a worrying precedent for the organisation's independent [sic] and commitment to public-interest journalism,\" he said.\n\nFazal claimed in another video statement he was hired by the ABC for his access to certain sources, with that proximity later used against him.\n\nHe said his reporting was heavily scrutinised during editorial standards and production meetings.\n\nEarlier this month, the ABC announced its head of investigations and current affairs, Jo Puccini, was leaving the public broadcaster after a 25-year career.\n\nShe had oversight of Four Corners and Background Briefing.\n\nOther senior managers at the ABC at the time of Fazal's reporting have already left the broadcaster for unrelated reasons.",

"title": "Former senior public servant replaces Julie Bishop as ANU chancellor",
"body": "The higher education regulator is conducting an investigation into governance at the ANU after a long period of controversy surrounding its $250 million savings plan.\n\nAdjunct Professor of Economics Gordon de Brouwer has been appointed as the next chancellor of the Australian National University (ANU).\n\nDr de Brouwer replaces Julie Bishop, who resigned in May following months of pressure to stand down by staff, students and some politicians.\n\nA former academic within the ANU's Crawford School of Public Policy, Dr de Brouwer remains an adjunct professor at the university.\n\nHe has held senior leadership positions across the Australian government, including as the Australian Public Service Commissioner and Secretary for Public Sector Reform.\n\nHe has also served as secretary of the Department of the Environment and Energy, associate secretary of the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet, and in senior roles at Treasury and the Reserve Bank of Australia.\n\nIn announcing his appointment, ACT Senator Katy Gallagher said it was a \"full-circle\" moment.\n\n\"Dr de Brouwer has made a significant contribution to Australia through his career in academia and the Australian Public Service, and brings a wealth of experience, respected leadership qualities and a deep commitment to public institutions to the role,\" she said in a statement.\n\n\"Dr de Brouwer's leadership and experience will be crucial in providing stability and confidence as the ANU moves forward.\"\n\nA new chancellor amid continued investigation\n\nDr de Brouwer will be the ANU's 14th chancellor in its 80-year history when he takes up the role on August 19.\n\nThe announcement comes amid an investigation into the university's governance by the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA), and as the position of vice-chancellor remains vacant.\n\nThat position has been filled by interim VC Rebekah Brown since the resignation of Genevieve Bell in September following a controversial saga over the institution's $250 million savings plan, which included cutting jobs.\n\nAn Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) report later found the ANU's then-leaders had no clear evidence that cuts were needed as part of its now-abandoned savings plan, titled Renew ANU.\n\nOn ABC Radio Canberra this morning, Acting Pro-Chancellor Andrew Metcalfe acknowledged the public's \"loss of trust\" and \"loss of confidence\" in the ANU, but said he was hopeful Dr de Brouwer would lead the institution well.\n\n\"We are determined to ensure that our leadership, our plan ... the university's vision are all very much focused on our national mission, which is building a better Australia,\" he said.\n\nANU should be a 'leading voice'\n\nIn his first statement as chancellor, Dr de Brouwer said he was looking forward to helping ANU \"build confidence in its future\" and acknowledged the ANU's \"extraordinary national mission\".\n\n\"It brings together outstanding students and staff, world-leading research and a responsibility to contribute to the major challenges facing Australia and the world,\" he said.\n\n\"I am committed to helping ANU build confidence in its future, with strong governance, a compelling shared strategy and a culture in which our people can do their best work.\"\n\nHe said the ANU should continue to be a \"trusted national institution and a leading voice on the issues that will shape Australia's future\".\n\n\"I look forward to being active and present across the university, listening to our students and staff and working with council, the interim vice-chancellor and the broader ANU community to ensure the university delivers on its national mission.\"\n\nOn Friday, the ANU released a new strategy, looking forward to 2030, and Professor Brown acknowledged the last few years had been \"really difficult\" for the university.\n\nIn releasing the strategy, a kind of brand statement for the institution, Professor Brown said student numbers remained too low and driving up enrolment was a key ambition.\n\nProfessor Brown added that the university's slower and more rigorous processes of researching and testing knowledge were vital to the nation, particularly in the age of artificial intelligence.\n\nShe also did not rule out having ambitions to permanently take on the role of vice-chancellor.",

"body": "Using smart glasses to record people without consent could result in legal consequences. Pic: Getty Images\n\nAustralians using smart glasses to film people could face criminal penalties and civil lawsuits, lawyers have warned.\n\nShine Lawyers chief legal officer Lisa Flynn said using smart glasses to record people without their consent could result in legal consequences.\n\n\"Depending on the circumstances and jurisdiction, these may include criminal penalties under surveillance or recording laws, as well as civil claims arising from the misuse of private information or other privacy-related harms,\" Flynn said.\n\n\"As wearable technology becomes more common, courts are likely to be asked with increasing frequency to consider the liability of individuals who misuse these devices and the remedies available to those affected.\"\n\nThis month Kmart's $89 alternative to Meta AI glasses, which typically cost between $300 and $700, sold out, prompting concerns the convenient and hands-free recording devices could pose a privacy risk if laws didn't keep up.\n\nThe University of Sydney's Governing Immersive Tech Project team analysed the growing trend of \"ambient capture\" in which men secretly record women in everyday settings using smart glasses and distribute the footage online for audience engagement.\n\nOne TikTok account has videos of women from a man's perspective as he approaches them, trying to get their phone number or Instagram handle, and often involves him making comments about their physical appearance.\n\nGoverning Immersive Tech Project research found about 60% of covert point-of-view videos analysed showed behaviour classified as potential harassment, with many women showing discomfort or refusal.\n\nIn 43% of the Instagram videos analysed, individuals were further exposed to derogatory commentary and some were identified or doxxed.\n\nGoverning Immersive Tech Project chief investigator Benjamin Egliston said despite these glasses serving a purpose for people with disabilities, they posed a risk when used inappropriately.\n\n\"I get that there is a benefit for a specific community but I think we do need to be quite careful and think about what the trade-off is,\" he told The Australian.\n\nDr Egliston said the team analysed 350 videos linked to pick-up artist communities and found some of the women were filmed at work, the gym or in swimwear at the beach, prompting concerns places assumed to be private or semi-private might now be at risk.\n\nMost of the women were unaware they were being filmed because smart glasses were designed to blend in and not be identifiable, Dr Egliston said. \"While there is a light on the device, I don't think that is sufficient because, one, it can be covered over and, two, it can be modified,\" he said.\n\nNew forms of harassment\n\nThe research warns smart glasses could enable new forms of online harassment and gender-based harms that might not be recognised by current online safety or platform governance frameworks.\n\nSlater and Gordon Lawyers senior practice leader, public liability Jackson Pannam said while the technology was new, \"the privacy and safety issues are not\".\n\n\"Whether it's a phone or smart glasses, people should not assume they can secretly record others without consequence. Depending on what is filmed and how it is used, covert recording can breach surveillance, privacy, harassment or stalking laws,\" he said.\n\n\"If a matter did reach court, the device is secondary. The focus would be on the behaviour, any pattern of targeting or harassment, and the harm caused to the person in the video.\"\n\nPannam said people should seek help if they believed they had been filmed without their consent.\n\n\"If you're worried you've been filmed without your consent and posted online, act quickly. Save screenshots and links, report the content to the platform and ask for it to be taken down and seek legal advice. If you feel unsafe or targeted, speak to the police.\"\n\nFederal Attorney-General Michelle Rowland said earlier this month that she had written to the Privacy Commissioner over the potential privacy implications and concerns raised by the community about the growing uptake of smart glasses.\n\n\"Privacy is an essential part of all our lives; it allows us to be who we are with dignity and without fear,\" she said.\n\n\"That's why the Albanese government has written to the Privacy Commissioner, raising widespread community concerns about the potential impacts of smart glasses, particularly for women and children.\"\n\nRowland said \"unlike other forms of technology, smart glasses may be used more discreetly, making it harder to know when you are being recorded\", and asked the issue be given priority consideration.\n\nTeach Us Consent chief executive and founder Chanel Contos said the Digital Duty of Care set up by the federal government needed to regulate wearable technology as soon as possible.\n\n\"At best, smart glasses normalise filming and sharing people without their consent, feeding algorithms designed to reward voyeuristic, rage-baiting content. At worst, they are used as a tool for the sexual exploitation of children, women and other vulnerable groups,\" she said.\n\nThis article first appeared in The Australian as Smart glass users face criminal penalties for filming people, top lawyers warn.",

"title": "Broaden Concussion Rules Amid Brain Health Concerns",
"body": "Recently, the Australian Football League (AFL) was rocked when it was revealed a Geelong player with a history of concussion had been asked to waive his legal rights to claim for any future brain trauma.\n\nAuthor\n\n* Leon Harris\n\nClinical Legal Educator/Course Coordinator, School of Law and Society, University of the Sunshine Coast\n\nIt was the latest in a series of concussion issues the AFL has had to address in recent years.\n\nBut the focus on concussion is problematic. Indeed, concussions are not necessarily the most pressing issue in contact sports when it comes to brain injuries.\n\nThe bigger concern should be chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).\n\nWhat is CTE?\n\nCTE is a neurodegenerative brain disease that has been linked to contact sports such as Australian football, rugby league, rugby union and soccer.\n\nIt often strikes later in life but has been diagnosed in athletes as young as 20 in Australia.\n\nIt can only be diagnosed posthumously.\n\nCTE develops after repetitive brain trauma - research indicates concussions may not necessarily be the primary cause. Instead, repeated subconcussive impacts to the brain is where the actual risk lies.\n\nThese subconcussive impacts, which rarely cause any symptoms, can occur during normal game play from actions such as tackling or bumping.\n\nIt is the accumulated damage from these repeated subconcussive impacts that can lead to CTE.\n\nEncouraging action on concussion\n\nIn the past decade or so, the AFL and other contact sports have made changes to mitigate the impacts of concussion, through rule changes aimed at minimising head contact, rigorous concussion assessment protocols, and mandatory \"stand-down\" periods following concussion.\n\nThese measures should be acknowledged.\n\nHowever, research is increasingly suggesting the biggest risk comes from subconcussive impacts.\n\nSo, what have Australia's sporting codes done to address this risk?\n\nThe answer is somewhat surprising.\n\nThe main cause of CTE is barely acknowledged\n\nI recently analysed the community concussion management guidelines from some of Australia's major sports.\n\nWhat I found was concerning.\n\nIn the AFL's guidelines it is apparent what the focus is: \"concussion\" is mentioned 264 times in 36 pages. The measures outlined are focused on concussion prevention, diagnosis and management.\n\nHowever, a search for \"subconcussive\" shows no mentions. The term \"repeated head impacts\" (or similar) is used 11 times but usually in conjunction with concussion or to minimise the issue of such impacts. For example, on page five it states:\n\nwhile head trauma poses a higher risk, not everyone who experiences repeated concussions develops CTE, and it is uncertain the degree to which repeated head impacts increase the risk.\n\nYet researchers are now confident subconcussive impacts play a significant role in the development of CTE. The AFL's emphasis on \"uncertain\", then, is interesting phrasing.\n\nOnly once, on page four, is the phrase \"repetitive nonconcussive head impacts\" used but even then, the term is not defined or explained:\n\nHead trauma, either as a single concussion, repeated concussions or repetitive 'nonconcussive' head impacts, also appears to be associated with an increased risk of brain degeneration later in life.\n\nSimilar issues arise in other sports.\n\nIn rugby league, the Australian Rugby League Commission guidelines mention \"concussion\" 126 times in 15 pages but not once is \"subconcussion/non-concussion\" mentioned.\n\nThere are also no mentions of \"repeated/repetitive head impacts\".\n\nAgain these guidelines deal only with concussion prevention, diagnosis and management.\n\nIn soccer, Football Australia's guidelines mention \"concussion\" 52 times in eight pages, but again there is no mention of \"subconcussion\" or warning of the risk of repeated subconcussive impacts. This is despite the strong link between repeatedly heading the ball and a higher risk of developing CTE.\n\nIn rugby union, Rugby Australia's guidelines mention \"concussion\" 153 times in 20 pages, with \"subconcussion\" again not mentioned at all.\n\nWhat should be done?\n\nIt would be simple to explain the dangers of subconcussive impacts in these guidelines. The leagues should update them to include references to subconcussive impacts and more information about the risk as soon as possible.\n\nOther information - such as the potential value of mouthguards with inbuilt sensors to monitor contact forces - could be included.\n\nContact restrictions at training - which the NRL and World Rugby have already introduced, with the AFL reportedly following suit soon - should also be formally recommended, as well as raising of the age of \"first exposure\" to contact.\n\nSuch measures would inform athletes, families and officials about the seriousness with which sports need to approach participants' brain health.\n\nIt's more than just concussion\n\nAt the moment, many people who play contact sports may incorrectly think sports governing bodies have already dealt with the \"concussion issue\". Dozens of pages in the guidelines arguably do this quite well.\n\nHowever, the failure to explain the risk posed by repeated subconcussive impacts - and to warn those who play they may develop a devastating brain disease even if they never suffer a concussion - is concerning.\n\nLeon Harris does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organisation that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond their academic appointment.\n\n/Courtesy of The Conversation.
