Balance

Two people sit watching TV, Anthony Albanese is on the screen. An Aboriginal flag is above the TV. Text reads, 'I for one look forward to the inevitable call for media balance between the heartfelt well-informed and the strategically bad-faith.'

In his speech at the Garma Festival, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese outlined the ‘starting point’ for how he would propose to change the Australian Constitution to include a ‘First Nations Voice’. He asked all Australians ‘of goodwill’ to engage with the process. Cathy Wilcox suggests that perhaps not everyone who does so will be acting in good faith.
