Morrison gives opening address at right-wing 'Christian' organisation conference on the Gold Coast. Was this reported? Why not, MSM? Did we pay for his travel?

Interestingly the conference web page seems to have been taken down (might be innocent; was the registration page and the conference has now started). Here's a cache view:

There's no mention of this 'engagement' at the PMO's Media Centre page. Did he really travel privately, or perhaps pay his own way in one of *our* fancy executive aircraft?

Why does our media just ignore these things? How are they not news, reportable, relevant to the public interest, to public policy? Here's a tip, THEY ARE.
Really think Morrison's strange religious affiliations aren't relevant to the public interest? Recall that he is supposedly 'burning for us, every day'. And having Pentecostal ministerial mates organise quaint religious #milkshakevideos to 'educate' our children.
Seems he took our small executive jet, up and back on the same evening (HT @markrprior):

Media: 'We didn't know.' Here's another tip: It's your job to know. Call yourselves insiders ... yeah, sure.

Guess just your ACC luminaries, hands-on.
One reason our media won't report this stuff is this:
"Do not place unnecessary emphasis on personal characteristics, including race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, age, sexual orientation, family relationships, RELIGIOUS BELIEF, or physical or intellectual disability."
"Do not place unnecessary emphasis on personal characteristics, including race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, age, sexual orientation, family relationships, RELIGIOUS BELIEF, or physical or intellectual disability."
That is clause 2 of the MEAA Code of Ethics, 1998 (my emphasis added). But what is "unnecessary emphasis"? If the Prime Minister of the country's daily activities, policy focus, very being, is driven by his faith, is it not 'necessary' to report that?
Would not *failure* to report it be unethical?
