For months, @jacksonwryan.com has been looking into why so many video games sites have become full of gambling and casino stories, unusual author images, and, most recently, the use of AI. We've connected these sites to Clickout Media. Here's what we've learned.

This is very belated lmao but I finished up at the ABC last month because later this month, I'll be heading to the US + studying at New York University's Science, Health & Environmental Reporting program. It's an opportunity that still hasn't quite sunk in, but I am very grateful!!!

You know what takes guts? Talking to a journo -- a total stranger -- about the toll that your work has taken on you, mentally, physically, emotionally. I'm so grateful to be given the opportunities as a reporter to speak the truth for people who feel like they don't have a voice.

After everything we have gone through - with all the inappropriate intervention of previous chairs and MDs - this is BEYOND disappointing. ABC journos deserve better: to be allowed do their job without the biases of chairs and MDs undermining our independence. @withmeaa.bsky.social

Ed Husic, our Minister for Science, posted on LinkedIn for International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Great! Not so great: He incorrectly spells Dr Kirsten Banks' name (twice), copy-paste Ruby Payne Scott's achievements from a NYT obituary and gets the science of petrichor wrong.

Emergency department workers in New South Wales are bracing for the worst following the mass exit of psychiatrists from the public health sector. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01...

"As of Tuesday, January 21, she will be one of more than 200 staff specialist psychiatrists working in public mental health in NSW to resign, facing an uncertain future." Excellent reporting on state's public psychiatry crisis by @biancanogrady.bsky.social www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/health/...

NSW public mental health services are on the brink of collapse. This is a crisis. Public hospital psychiatrists are saying they need to be paid competitively. “A total of 150 of the state’s 295 staff specialist psychiatrists had formally resigned by Thursday night.”

New from me: Naloxone can save lives. Pharmacies are also paid to stock + hand it out. Yet some pharmacies (4 in every 10 according to one paper) are still choosing not to stock naloxone. I tried to understand why. www.abc.net.au/news/2024-11...

New from me: Autistic Australians are saying they're blocked from quality healthcare because the healthcare system doesn't understand their needs. Turns out there's little training for healthcare workers on treating autistic patients. www.abc.net.au/news/2023-12...
