Christian Porter instructed Commonwealth prosecutors not to charge journalists under certain sections of Australia's secrecy laws without first obtaining his approval.

The initiative comes after press freedom concerns following AFP searches on a News Corp Journalist’s home and at ABC offices in Sydney earlier this year.

Up to 1,100 regional jobs and funding for essential services across New South Wales could be at risk after the Independent Planning Commission rejected plans for a coal mine near Mudgee. The commission refused to back the development of the Bylong Coal mine, due to environmental impact fears. There are now concerns the decision could jeapordise mining royalties used to pay for hospitals, roads and schools in the state.

The Democrats will hold multiple inquiries into whether to impeach President Trump over allegations he pressured his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate political rival Joe Biden and his son, Hunter. Mr Morrow said Democrats may be forced to defend the “nepotistic” conduct of Hunter Biden, who held a board position at Ukrainian energy company.

Streaming giants could soon be hit with multi-billion dollar losses as the market is about to become “incredibly crowded”, Professor Mark Ritson has told Sky News at the Inform News Media Summit. “We’re going to have to call it the streaming wars because that’s what it’s about to be. It’s a global war,” Professor Ritson said. “You look right now at who’s streaming content, the free to air channels are doing that, we’ve obviously got Netflix doing a pretty good job, Google have their own Google Play service, Foxtel have of course their total streaming service, and we’re going to see Amazon Prime doing something but probably growing. “Now add to that CBS, NBC, Disney+, HBO Max, Hulu will probably come in. “We’re going to see a dozen players in every country trying to make room in the schedules and in the airtime and in the pockets of Australian homes.” Professor Ritson said the market will probably only support three media players. “It would be ABC, Foxtel, let’s say Disney+,” he said.

CoreLogic's Tim Lawless is concerned not enough is being done to prevent Australia's housing affordability problem from worsening as prices once again press upwards. “This really needs to be looked at seriously,” Mr Lawless said. “Ideally, we shouldn’t have to rely on lower housing prices to improve housing affordability because there’s so many negative economic implications from lower household wealth.” Mr Lawless said housing prices are rising broadly mostly in Sydney and Melbourne while some smaller cities are experiencing growth. “That suggests to me we’ve probably seen the best of the affordability improvements.” He suggests a pivot to long-term strategies to fix the issue. from National | Daily Telegraph https://ift.tt/2mIOJcS
