Media disinformation: Understand South China Sea standoff through the Filipino media

Submitted by Wei Ling Chua on Wed, 23/05/2012 - 9:16pm

China is now Australia’s largest trading partner. Western Australia’s Premier is right to point out that: “… of the 60,000 new jobs created in Australia over the past 12 months, 50,000 were in WA, which now accounted for 70 per cent of the nation's exports to China … To some extent, the strength of the WA economy is concealing the true weakness of the national economy.” Therefore, it is in Australia national interest that our policy makers are able to understand China in an objective manner. I hope that the following article will contribute to such an objective.

My hat goes off to those organising DIY events around Melbourne

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Tue, 21/02/2012 - 4:16pm

Recently I read an article on Indymedia that was a review on a DIY bridge gig held in North Melbourne. I have decided to write this follow-up article looking at a few of the DIY gigs that have been happening around Melbourne at the moment. Especially in the punk scene lot of the DIY of movement has been growing somewhat stale compared to what it has been in previous days.

Cop It Sweet - Occupy Melbourne

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Sun, 30/10/2011 - 11:27pm

Over 1000 people marched from the State Library of Victoria to Treasury Gardens on 29th October 2011 as part of the ongoing Occupy Melbourne protests.

Our boys and girls in blue were on the streets again today, dodging criticism for the use of brutal strong arm tactics against the public when evicting the Occupy Melbourne protest from City Square on the 21st of October.

Occupy Melbourne eviction - A first hand account

Submitted by Kenji Wardenclyffe on Fri, 28/10/2011 - 6:51pm

As a freelance journalist, it is my job to cover protest and put myself into situations where others may feel unsafe. It is my job to cover events as they unfold and report on them. Here is a detailed first hand account of my experiences of Occupy Melbourne's eviction.

Here I am not stating support for or against Occupy Melbourne. This is simply a detailed statement of what I witnessed.

Footage from the violent eviction of Occupy Melbourne in City Square by police, and the demonstration itself, leading up to the general assembly 10 hours after the initial eviction, with words from speakers about the police brutality and where the movement should go from here.

Sydney Opera House banner drop protests Harvey Norman forest destruction

Submitted by takver on Sun, 09/10/2011 - 5:41pm

Five environmental activists were arrested yesterday for climbing the Opera House and draping a banner on one of the sails protesting Retailer Harvey Norman's participation in Australian native forest destruction. The banner read "No Harvey No! Stop selling Aussie forest destruction!" and was part of a global 24 hours of action targeting the Harvey Norman business with more than 30 actions taking place in Australia and several overseas.

Media covers up metropolitan Melbourne’s biggest rain event on record

Submitted by Flowerpower on Sat, 05/02/2011 - 10:36pm

By 9AM on Saturday February 5th, areas of Melbourne Metropolitan area had received their highest rainfall total on record. Although the rain event has been extensively reported, the historically significant level of these rains has been almost completely unremarked upon in the mainstream press. For example Berwick in Melbourne’s South East received, 168mm and Officer receiving an incredible 195mm

The only comparable events in the last hundred years were in December 1934, February 1973 and Feb 2005. An examination of table from the Bureau of Meteorology shows that the rainfall total for Officer was the highest on record for any Melbourne suburb since records began. This oversight fits the pattern of the mainstream media attempting to normalise extreme climate events to prevent the public from clamouring for action on climate change.
