I had been a radio host for many years, using my platform to advocate for improvements in my community. I had a particularly successful show on the radio called the “Valley Rural Program” which covered local issues that were important to the community. However, the Nationals brought pressure on the management of the community radio station to get the show cancelled. When I am elected, I plan to investigate this matter and look into the local radio station and the political interference by the Nationals. My goal is to ensure that the community has access to diverse perspectives. I believe that political interference in the media undermines democracy and I will fight against it.
