  2. Three threatened bat species have been recorded flying around the Sydney Opera House and Harbour — including one 67 metres up, right on top of the sails.
    Nature doesn’t vanish just because we built a city. Green spaces, waterways and foreshores still matter, even in the middle of one of Australia’s busiest places.
    Maybe our urban wildlife deserves a bit more room to breathe.

  5. Laura Tingle asks:

    "Why does Israel keep killing journalists?

    ... The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) reported in February that Israel was responsible for two-thirds of all press killings in both 2025 and 2024, two consecutive record years for press deaths.

    More journalists and media workers were killed in 2025 than in any other year since the CPJ began collecting data more than three decades ago."

  9. Wage growth slightly outpaces consumer price inflation in the year to September, which means the average worker has received a small increase in their purchasing power, a point highlighted by the Treasurer Jim Chalmers. However, the increase was down on the same period last year and an economist says workers can expect real wages to fall again next year. Wage rises were stronger for workers in the public sector, led by pay rises for employees of state and local governments. The data alleviates any pressure on the Reserve Bank to lower interest rates. William Buck chief economist Besa Deda thinks there's a possibility of one more cut in the second half of 2026.

    The ABS published a second set of monthly numbers, estimating the total wages and salaries paid by employers to their staff in September. Payments totalled $108.8 billion, driven higher by bonuses in the mining, utilities, retail, media and financial services sectors, which are often paid in September, in response to financial year targets. However, the 5.3 per cent annual growth in total wages and salaries paid to employees was down from the 6.1 per cent rise recorded over the year to September 2024.

  10. "It mapped up to a one-in-2,000 annual chance flood event,"

    Huzzah! #ABCNewsAustralia is actually using the chance *per year* as the nomenclature, rather than saying "1 in x year" as the metric. An important distinction so people can visualise the actual risk to them because it's likely to happen in their lifetime.

  20. David Speers on #ABCNewsAustralia this evening continuing the mythology around a ‘balanced’ budget.

    Australia and Australians suffer whenever the federal government prioritises a budget surplus over services and infrastructure needed to maintain a strong and healthy country and population.

  21. CW: The Biggest Loser: ABCNews’ Ian Verrender’s take on the USA sacrificing the economy to pay homage to its cult leader

    ‘… global investors haven't confined their selling to stocks. They're moving their cash out of America.

    ‘For decades, US government debt has been considered the benchmark for financial security. In times of trouble, investors, institutions and even nations have scrambled for the safe haven that is the world's biggest economy.

    ‘That crown has begun to slip and with it, the notion of a US dollar as the world's reserve currency.

    ‘…Trump has damaged his country's standing and its reputation.
    …
    ‘When it comes to business, as in life, trust and confidence are paramount.

    ‘Without trust, you suddenly find yourself swimming alone. Just ask Elon.’

  22. #ABCNewsAustralia Spreading the myth that Australia’s national budget is like a household’s budget.

    The Australian government prints its own (fiat) currency. It can’t run out of money, like a household.

  23. ABC News is probably the only news organisation in Australia that can and does dedicate resources to doing this kind of regional reporting (which is why its continued funding is so important), but they really need to cut back on adding strong vignettes to photos in articles about natural disasters to try to make them more “dramatic”. Particularly the photos in the second half of this article are a bit much…

  24. The latest update to this…

    If your device feels like it’s on fire when browsing the ABC News website in Australia and you use a content blocker with Safari where you can specify custom CSS selectors for elements to hide, the following selector should help a lot:

    div[class*="ActivityFeedItem_underline__"], span[class*="Label_underline__"]

    (even though the ABC site uses CSS animations, they have JS that also constantly calls requestAnimationFrame 🔥)

  25. A great piece of analysis from @ABC about company reputations - how to trash them e.g. PwC, Qantas, Colesworth - how to restore them e.g. big 4 banks and that ESG (environmental, social, and governance) done right should be table stakes for corporates today.

    Well-written, informative and entertaining analysis. Kudos to Daniel Ziffer.

    ”a "cascade of errors" that saw a 1.25-metre tool left in an engine for 300 hours of flying time.”

    ”a Qantas employee entered false information into the airline's digital maintenance system to say the tool had been accounted for”

  27. Am I alone in finding the revamped ABC Australia news website difficult to scan news on?

    Is it just because it's new and I've yet to get used to it, or is it because I'm old and set in my ways. I don't know.

  28. So many #ABCNewsAustralia stories that are seemingly written before the event occurs then sloppily published without updating the figures. This is the story I noticed tonight.

    "West Terrace in Adelaide CBD has recorded close to 10 millimetres of rain on Thursday after one of the driest months this year.
    The city previously recorded a measly 0.6mm of rain on May 20.
    "We've recorded 10.6mm of rainfall in Adelaide so far in May, this is well below the [monthly rainfall] average of 61.7mm," senior meteorologist Chris Kent said."

    Except the #BoM (Bureau of Meteorology) data states only 6.6mm for today and a total of 7.2mm for May 2024. Funnily enough yesterday they were forecasting up to 10mm as the article states is the total for today.
