ABCs daily current affairs program 7.30 approached Sporting Shooters’ Association of Australia (SSAA National) to provide a viewpoint on behalf of licensed firearm owners following recent discussions of firearm laws in the wake of tragic events in Queensland last year.
Interviews and footage with SSAA National Media and Politics Officer Rachael Oxborrow and SSAA Western Australia President Paul Fitzgerald were conducted by ABC over several hours in the past week.
While pleased to have the opportunity to air our viewpoint, we were disappointed to see imbalance in the amount of time our representatives had to offer input throughout the story.
