Media Diversity Australia expands team ahead of new research plans
May 14, 2021 10:33
Not-for-profit Media Diversity Australia has expanded its team as it plans to grow and have more impact on an industry it sees as lacking in diversity.
Chris Vaughan has joined the team as its operations director, bringing experience from his work in the finance industry, as well as media and advertising.
Vaughan said the work Media Diversity Australia does is close to his heart.
“I moved to Australia at the age of seven from London, it took many years before I saw someone else who looked like me let alone on the TV. It was because of that and many other reasons, that I feel very passionate about playing a part in this narrative to ensure that the seven year old me today is able to see more diverse cultures represented equally across all media platforms,” Vaughan said.
Stokes hired Cronin as editor-in-chief of West Australian Newspapers after he bought the paper in 2008.
After the interview aired – and Weekly Beast heard it in full – we noticed it had been deleted from the 6PR website.
A few days later Cronin returned to the airways to clarify, correct and apologise to Stokes. The original interview was reposted with the offending material edited out.
We can’t repeat the potentially defamatory part of Cronin’s interview but we can tell you he said he was worried about concentration of media ownership, pointing to Stokes owning the West Australian, the Sunday Times, PerthNow and the Seven network, on top of his regional and suburban assets.

The mining magnate Clive Palmer has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on newspaper ads attacking his opponents and making false claims about Australia’s Covid-19 vaccination program.
The Australian Press Council, which monitors newspaper standards, has so far been silent about this potentially dangerous spreading of misinformation.
But now the Independent Media Council, a press-council equivalent for Kerry Stokes’ stable of newspapers, has stepped up and criticised the West Australian, upholding a complaint against it for publishing a full-page advertisement by Palmer criticising the safety and legality of the Covid vaccination program, which contained factual inaccuracies it deemed unfair and “serious errors”, because they were “likely to undermine public confidence” in the program.
