The bitter attack in ABC WA in The West& #39;s IC cover today failed to mention the following...
The ABC& #39;s Broome team was nominated for a Walkley for coverage of the Kimberley child suicide crisis https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-02-07/kimberley-child-suicides-blamed-on-inter-generational-trauma/10783016">https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019...

The staff in WA also operate seven radio stations and reporting teams across nine sites in WA; Perth, Albany, Bunbury, Kalgoorlie, Geraldton, Karratha, Broome, with staff also in Esperance and Kununurra.

To my colleagues at the ABC in WA. The quality of our work speaks for itself. We are on the ground where commercial media has stripped back resources. Be proud of what we create for this big, beautiful state and country.
We don& #39;t have time for schoolyard bullying.
