Are lawyers actually regulated? Our run-ins with NSW Bar Association & ACT Law Society show not.

In fact, threats and conflicts of interest ... well, that *is* the business.

The assumption that a gas phase for Whyalla is key to eventual decarbonisation is not only flawed, it is economically unviable.

How do you know if a youtuber is trustworthy?

Based on my PhD research, in this video, I suggest applying the standard of public interest journalism. I'm reposting this to test the new thumbnail. Any thoughts?

Children are constantly monitoring sentencing laws in the mainstream press, and as rational actors, this will definitely make them think twice before offending.

Two panels, one on top of the other. The first panel shows a hand holding a red mushroom with white spots, in front of a small figure with AI across the chest. Speech bubble from the hand says “is this mushroom edible?” The AI figure replies “yes!“ The second panel shows a gravestone with RIP on it and the AI figure near it. The speech bubble says “You’re right – that mushroom was poisonous. I’m sorry for the confusion! Would you like to learn more about poisonous mushrooms?“

There are more than 24 journalism definitions in Australian statutes.

If the misinformation bill had passed last year that would have added another 2!
