Starting the week: ABC under scrutiny; Coles most green?; Heart Foundation fades; ad tracking apocalypse
Welcome to Unmade, written on a crisp, cloudless blue morning at Sisters Beach, Tasmania.
Today’s writing soundtrack: Loving in Stereo by Jungle. It’s optimistic, genre-mashing stuff. Thanks for the top tip, Chris.
Happy Accounting Day. As somebody starting to think about company accounts, I’m suddenly all the more appreciative. Sense check: Xero is the best way way for me to go, right? I welcome your advice at letters@unmade.media
Today, I’m planning to continue with last week’s Monday experiment of providing a fast overview of what I see as the key topics of the last few, and next few, days.
Hi Tim, pretty concerning that you decided to link to a piece on the Spectator by an IPA staffer on discussing the ABC’s drop in trust, given the IPA’s long ideological war against the public broadcaster. Not doubting the Roy Mogan research in any way but it would be interesting to see if other media companies also saw a drop in trust during covid? It’s hard to make any intelligent analysis of this with one media organisation being assessed in isolation. It’s made even worse by ideologs on your link conflating the result with their own culture wars. Pretty disappointing.
