Aim of ABC NEWS WATCH

In a diversifying media landscape news editors face an increasingly difficult challenge reviewing the work of reporters under their supervision. Inevitably some mistakes, errors and substandard articles slip past their critical eyes.

In doing so we hope to provide an independent check or audit on ABC news articles and in doing so improve the standard of ABC news reporting.
