The ABC’s board unanimously passed a vote of confidence in MD David Anderson at an emergency meeting on Tuesday. This followed a union-led motion of no-confidence that was passed by the vast majority of 128 staff members on Monday. Amongst other things, they were critical of the public broadcaster’s coverage of the Israel-Hamas war and its decision to sack journalist Antoinette Lattouf in December. The ABC’s outgoing chair Ita Buttrose has defended Anderson, saying any suggestion that he has ever shown a lack of support for independent journalism is "abhorrent and incorrect".
