News Online – 6 October 2007
The complaint
An online news reader pointed out that a report about deep-sea mining on the Papua New
Guinea sea floor was accompanied by an image of a coral reef, which had clearly been taken
in relatively shallow water. However, the news report indicated that the mining would be at a
depth of nearly 2 kilometres under water.
Findings
The ABC accepted that the photo was misleading and it was removed from the story.
