Introduction – CATThere is no denying that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are treated differently in our society, particularly by the media. They are often depicted as troublemakers, violent and drunkards. These comments used by the media give a bad impression to Aboriginal people. Tonight on Media Matters we uncover the truth behind the media's treatment of famous Sydney Swans footballer Adam Goodes. The media heavily criticized this athlete for his unfair statements that led him to violate the journalist's code of ethics, the very rules he should follow. The code of ethics applies to all journalists and is designed to ensure that their reporting is fair and non-judgmental.Paragraph 1 – TEEPROn January 29, 2014, Miranda Devin of the Daily Telegraph expressed her opinion in the article "Adam Goodes is a poor choice for Australian of the Year.

These framing examples further validate how the moral authority needed to intervene in the NT may have been achieved through media coverage of child abuse and neglect (Macoun 2012, cited in Altman and Russell 2012: 1) , in addition to intensifying bureaucratic and interest group support. and the resulting public support. This lends credence to the fact that when there are enough credible, audible voices and seemingly obvious facts and images, it means that what is happening is indeed big, bad and, moreover, urgent (Rosenthal and al. 1989, cited in Boin et al. 2009: 86). It also demonstrates how, with the support of the public and diverse interests, a mass appeal supported and enabled the Australian Government's policy preference in launching the NTER..
