Two playlist files here of ABC coverage of the riots of the last few days.
Firstly, click here for a stream of five clips from the ABC television news from Monday and Tuesday. (I have selected the Windows Media Video broadband option for these - other options will be accessible for the next few days at least at the ABC News website.)
Second, click here for a stream of twelve MP3 files, of reports from ABC Radio National's three daily news programs on Monday, ie, AM, The World Today and PM, as well as one from SBS Radio's Worldview. There's a total of 63 minutes of audio here, and probably some duplication between programs. Transcripts of each ABC report can be found on the respective program websites.
The SBS report, which is last on this playlist, does not include the introduction. As per the Worldview website, it is:
National debate surrounding the race riots in Sydney over the weekend, has raised many questions about ethnicity and belonging. One contentious issue is the use of the word gang to describe groups of young people from diverse backgrounds. Greg Noble from the University of Western Sydney has researched the experiences of young Arabic speaking males for over a decade. He says the word "gang" is often misused, and ethnicity is not always the main characteristic of youth association. Dr Noble is speaking to Natasha Cuculovski about why young people form groups.
There will be no ABC radio current affairs programs today (Tuesday), as journalists belonging to the Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance are in dispute with ABC management.
Part 5 will include quotes and statements released by political, religious and community leaders.
