The ABC’s managing director, David Anderson, met with union members a week after they passed a no confidence motion against him over the broadcaster’s alleged failure to protect staff from external attacks on the Israel-Gaza conflict.

At a meeting of more than 200 ABC union members last week, staff said that the broadcaster’s leadership team had failed “to defend the integrity of the ABC and staff from attacks”.
