Around 1998 4ZZZ, 4MBS, and Family Radio started broadcasting from the one installation at Mt Coot-tha. Prior to this 4MBS and Family Radio had merely leased land beside 4ZZZ but then Brisbane City Council decided that having three transmission towers and huts in the one place was an eyesore and encouraged the three radio stations to share facilities. This resulted in the three radio stations developing a company called Broadcasting Park to negotiate with the Council. This company consisted of three shares, one owned by each member station.
Woodford Folk Festival criticised for one sided anti-vaccination promotion
Queensland’s Woodford Folk Festival has come under fire for promoting the discredited views of the Australian Vaccination Network’s founder and president Meryl Dorey.
In 2010 the NSW Health Care Complaints Commission issued a public health warning stating that the AVN provides information that is incorrect, misleading, and poses a risk to public health and safety.
AMA Queensland president Richard Kidd said the festival has a responsibility to add speakers who could provide the medically accurate side of the immunisation argument.
