Below is some important news from Save Our SBS.

As a result of the continued inadequate government funding for SBS and the annoying reliance on commercial breaks interrupting programs, we are often asked: What can I do now?

Email every politician before the next election

Visit www.SaveOurSBS.org and follow the links to EMAIL the federal politicians in your electorate, before the next election is even called. Tell them what you want specifically in relation to advertising and funding.

We’ve provided links to reveal each politicians contact details and an email template for the above, however, it is better if you use your own words if possible. Please do this now at www.SaveOurSBS.org

New SBS Chair appointed

Recently a new Chair of SBS was announced. Mr Joseph Skrzynski will take up his position of SBS Chair on 17 December 2009. He is already an existing member of the SBS Board. He was appointed during the term of the current government and his newer appointment to that of SBS Chair has caused a vacancy on the SBS Board.  A link of how to apply to serve on the SBS Board is in the story New SBS Chair appointed at www.SaveOurSBS.org

Banning commercial breaks on SBS

There have been no further moves in the parliament to debate or vote on the Special Broadcasting Service Amendment (Prohibition of Disruptive Advertising) Bill 2009 that we reported on in Bill bans ad interruptions on SBS-TV. If you are wondering what happened to the government’s official policy that objected to ads interrupting programs on SBS, then read No ad breaks on SBS parts 1 & 2: ‘When is a policy not a policy?‘ & ‘Minister denies policy‘. All these stories and more can be found at www.SaveOurSBS.org

eNewsLetter No 6 Save Our SBS

Following our recent eNewsLetter of a couple of weeks ago Save Our SBS has received enquiries from many people who would like some assistance in making a submission to the public enquiry into SBS. The feedback to us is that the Minister’s 36 page background discussion paper is too long and the Department’s website for submissions difficult to navigate through. Many are overwhelmed and at a loss to know what to say or where to begin. Our supporters have asked us to show a sample submission. As a result, we have taken the very unusual step of issuing another eNewsLetter now.

We urge you to look now at our sample submission at: http://sample.saveoursbs.org/  

You can use any, all, or none of our sample, for your own submission.

It would be highly desirable to write your own submission in your own words if you can. No more than 1000 words are allowed.

If you have limited time, better to make a submission rather than no submission. If this is the case, you are very welcome to use our sample submission as your own, or you can delete any part of it, or change the sections in ours that you do not want. It is up to you. Whatever you do, please make a submission. Make it today. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Begin at  http://sample.saveoursbs.org/  

Please act now.

Submissions close 4pm AEDT on 12 December 2008.

Save Our SBS will make a submission about SBS too. Ours will be a bit more detailed than the sample at http://sample.saveoursbs.org/ and we will publish a copy of it on www.SaveOurSBS.org in mid December.

Thankyou for supporting our cause to restore and save SBS.

eNewsLetter No 5 Save Our SBS

Below is some important news about SBS and an update about on how you can help restore and help rid it of advertisements.

It is now just over one year since Mary Kostakidis was reported walking from SBS, not to return and soon approaching that since the Labor government was elected.

There was reason to believe that Labor might provide more funds, and move to stop the SBS interrupting programs with advertisements.

Six months ago we presented the NO ADVERTISEMENTS OR SPONSORSHIP ON SBS petition to Senator Conroy. But SBS-TV still has ads. Will this change? Can anything further be done?

Who wants ads on SBS? – One Minute Only: survey

The ads on SBS-TV are more than just an annoying interruption. Speaking last year Senator Conroy said that this effectively “makes the SBS a de facto fourth free-to-air commercial television station and serves to erode the fundamental tenets of public broadcasting- that is, that it should be free from commercial and political influence”. (Senator Conroy 11 Oct 2007 ref)

So why the ads still? What can I do?

Voice your objection on-line. You may have previously signed a no ads on SBS petition, but that was only part of an on-going campaign to restore the broadcaster. Your support is much needed, again, to rescue SBS.

Visit www.SaveOurSBS.org and spend just a minute participating in a new, very short on-line survey to re-confirm your support that you want SBS to be properly funded from the public purse and free from ads. Just click on the “survey” logo-link, near the top of the screen at www.SaveOurSBS.org and wait while you are re-directed to the survey. We urge you to do this now. Tell your friends to visit www.SaveOurSBS.org and complete the One Minute Save Our SBS Survey too.

The one minute survey will provide us both quantitative and qualitative information. 

SBS Must Be Special

Former Prime Minister, Malcolm Fraser, has been joined by ethnic community leaders and key figures from public life, literature and the arts in calling for the SBS to focus on the needs of viewers rather than on selling consumers to advertisers.

Mr Fraser and the other notable Australians recently signed a public statement of support prepared by Save Our SBS. The statement “The SBS Must Be Special” expresses concern that in going down the commercial path, SBS is moving away from its Charter and becoming less special. You can read the statement and view the list of signatories at http://saveoursbs.org/archives/318

Among the list of notable persons who signed their name to the statement are former Board member of SBS, George Zangalis and Julian Burnside Q.C. who represented Mary Kostakidis last year.

Malcolm Fraser was Prime Minister of Australia in the second part of the 1970s. He embraced multiculturalism in the establishment of SBS, building on the creation of the publicly funded multi-lingual radio stations that was commenced by the Whitlam government.

The statement prepared by Save Our SBS was widely reported in the print media.

Future of SBS: government seeks public submissions

The Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Stephen Conroy, has commenced a public consultation process to review the future of Australia’s national broadcasters, SBS & ABC. Comments from the public are welcome. Information and a list of topics to help get you started in making your own submission are at http://saveoursbs.org/archives/324 That link is worth looking at before you make your submission.

Save Our SBS will make a submission. We strongly encourage you to make one too at http://www.dbcde.gov.au/media_broadcasting/consultation_and_submissions/abc_sbs_review/make_a_submission/online_submission_form

Submissions close 4pm AEDT on 12 December 2008.

This may be a once in a lifetime opportunity.

SBS funding for 2009-2012

On 5 August 2008, Save Our SBS submitted to Minister Conroy, a funding proposal of what we argue SBS ought to be granted for the next triennium (2009 to 2012). We understand that SBS requested a lesser amount than we submitted for the broadcaster. The government will announce its decision about SBS funding in the May 2009 Budget. Details of the Save Our SBS funding proposal can be found at http://saveoursbs.org/archives/323

Our Summer 2009 eNewsLetter will contain further information about this, leading up to the Budget.

Petition Closed

In recent months we’ve been asked: “What happened to the No Ads on SBS petition?”

The NO ADVERTISEMENTS OR SPONSORSHIP ON SBS petition closed on 23 March 2008 and was handed to Minister’s staff at a meeting in the Minister’s Melbourne office on 8 April 2008. The Minister was unable to attend. Save Our SBS and Senator Conroy’s office have remained in contact regarding SBS and the issues raised in the petition.

The Minister formally replied to Save Our SBS by letter on 26 August 2008. A copy of the Minister’s reply can be read at http://saveoursbs.org/archives/316 

Forced Ad Breaks

Did you know that in 2007, SBS forced 6000 commercial breaks into a long list of programs that were never intended to be interrupted for commercials. More details at http://saveoursbs.org/archives/312

The SBS Act provides for SBS to place ads in “natural breaks”.

EMAIL SUBJECT: No Ads on SBS petition tell others please

Dear [NAME] of [EMAIL],      

Following the recent No Ads on SBS or ABC email-campaign in the lead-up to the 2007 federal election, many people have asked Save Our SBS about our other campaign. 

“What’s happened to the No Ads on SBS petition that commenced many months ago?“ 

The No Ads on SBS petition, is about to close.  Soon it will be presented to the new Minister, Senator Stephen Conroy.

Our records show that you signed this petition using the email address above. We ask that you now encourage your friends to sign the petition before it closes.

The purpose of this message is to ask you to send an email about the petition to your friends. You can do this by clicking here.

The click will activate most Windows and Mac email clients, e.g., Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, etc with a pre-worded email ready to send to your friends. You will need to insert your friends email addresses.

If you use webmail rather than a stand-alone email client like Outlook etc the above may not work. However you can copy and paste the text between the yellow lines below into a webmail and send that to your friends.

The full wording of the petition is available here.

The Save Our SBS team

I have signed a petition at www.SaveOurSBS.org to support SBS so that it is properly funded from the public purse without the need to rely on advertising. I am asking you to support this cause so that our public multicultural broadcaster may once again be able to fulfil its Charter responsibilities with high quality, multicultural and ethnic programming.

Please click on the direct petition link www.petition.saveoursbs.org and sign the petition there as I did.

In short the petition calls for the Minister to immediately require that:-

1) The SBS Board cease disrupting all programs for advertisements;

2) Amend the SBS Act to prohibit advertising and sponsorship on SBS;

3) Fund SBS so it is not dependent on commercial revenue nor supplementation from advertising; and,

4) Introduce a new system of appointments to the SBS Board that will result in Board members being appointed on the basis of merit with a strong commitment to multiculturalism and SBS independence, and, that the Board is independent from the government of the day and commercial influence.

The petition will be handed to the Minister soon.

Our public multicultural broadcaster is still under threat and your support is needed so SBS can once again be properly funded and not reliant on advertising.

Support public broadcasting and SBS and sign the No Ads on SBS petition (NO ADVERTISEMENTS OR SPONSORSHIP ON SBS) petition NOW before it closes.

Protect our multicultural broadcaster. Don’t let SBS be sold out to commercialism! Click the direct petition link www.petition.saveoursbs.org and sign the petition now.

EMAIL SUBJECT: No Ads on SBS sign petition please

Dear [NAME] of [EMAIL],

Following the recent No Ads on SBS or ABC email-campaign in the lead-up to the 2007 federal election, many people have asked Save Our SBS about our other campaign.

“What’s happened to the No Ads on SBS petition that commenced many months ago?”

The No Ads on SBS petition, is about to close. Soon it will be presented to the new Minister, Senator Stephen Conroy.

Our records show that previously you expressed an interest in seeing SBS fully funded by government and without advertisements. However you never fully completed the process from your email address above so we are sending you this email as a last attempt and hope that you will sign the No Ads on SBS petition, before it is presented to the Minister. (If you did sign using a different email address from that above, there is no need to sign again. Thankyou).

Our public multicultural broadcaster is still under threat and your support is needed now so SBS can once again be properly funded and not reliant on advertising.

The purpose of this email is to urge you to act now and sign the No Ads on SBS petition. You can do this by clicking here.

Let’s insist that SBS be non-commercial and that high quality, multicultural and ethnic programming, can once again be the norm at SBS. Don’t let SBS be sold out to commercialism!

Essentially the petition asks for the Minister to require that:-

1) The SBS Board cease disrupting all programs for advertisements.

And protect the integrity and independence of SBS from government and commercial influence by:-

2) Amending the SBS Act to prohibit advertising and sponsorship on SBS;

3) Fully funding SBS so it is not dependent on commercial revenue nor supplementation from advertising; and,

4) Introducing a new system of appointments to the SBS Board that will result in Board members being appointed on the basis of merit with a strong commitment to multiculturalism and SBS independence, and, that the Board is independent from the government of the day and commercial influence.

The full wording of the petition is available here.

Please sign the No Ads on SBS petition now, before it closes.

Thank you for your ongoing support for public broadcasting.
