Speech by Karen Percy to ABC Friends event, May 8, 2021
This is an edited version of a speech given by MEAA’s federal vice president Karen Percy to an ABC Friends panel discussion on the damage the attacks on the ABC have caused to the public broadcaster. Delivered on Saturday, May 8 at Melbourne’s Hawthorn Town Hall.

I remember it like it was yesterday – the call came to the café in the CBD where I was working between university classes. I cried with joy when I heard the news. I promptly called my parents – my dad sent me a telegram of congratulations! It was simultaneously exciting and terrifying. I was a journalist at last.
