What makes a public — not 'national commercial' — broadcaster

Emma Dawson considers the recent attacks on the ABC and what they might mean for the future of the public broadcaster. Dawson believes that the Minister’s adoption of ‘national’ rather than ‘public’ broadcaster reflects an attempt to distance the Government from the need to provide public funding and warns against the introduction of commercial advertising because of its impact at SBS. Dawson believes that defining what a public broadcaster is, is the first step towards protecting this important institution.
