‘Grubby journalists’: Shadow Veterans’ Affairs Minister rips into the ABC

Shadow Veterans’ Affairs Minister Michael McCormack rips into the ABC as the broadcaster denies any wrongdoing after ACMA ruled its war memorial episode breached the impartiality code. “Grubby, grubby journalism. Hugh Marks needs to sack those journalists, quite frankly,” Mr McCormack told News24. “To use The Last Post in that way tarnishes everything that the war memorial stands for. It’s a sacred place; it’s a significant place.” “I’m all for free speech, I am, but that is grubby journalism at its lowest.”
