A spokesperson for Guardian Australia stated the publication maintains full editorial management over its journalism, no matter who’s footing the invoice.
Guardian Australia has rejected “unfounded allegations” of bias in its protection of the Voice to Parliament referendum made by the No marketing campaign, and can forge forward with a brand new podcast sequence funded by a Yes23 marketing campaign backer.
The podcast, dubbed The Voice Ask Me Something, was launched final week and billed as a sequence that may run within the publication’s Full Story podcast feed each fortnight. The sequence “will minimize by means of the noise” of the official Sure and No campaigns, with the monetary backing of Sure marketing campaign donor the Barlow Basis.
The sequence accounts for one among two present funding preparations entered into by Guardian Australia with organisations which have since change into Yes23 marketing campaign benefactors. The primary got here within the type of a $300,000 grant from the Balnaves Basis in March 2018 for Guardian Australia’s Indigenous affairs reporting by means of the Guardian Civic Journalism Belief. The association with the Barlow Basis was reached in 2020.
