Seven West Media journalists have been embedded with climate activists on at least two occasions in recent years, despite its claim that an ABC Four Corners crew “crossed a line” when covering a protest at the home of the Woodside chief executive, Meg O’Neill, on 1 August.
In 2021 Channel Seven was similarly tipped off to a protest that blockaded Woodside’s facilities on the Burrup peninsula, flying in overnight with a cameraman and doing live crosses to Sunrise.
