Standard behaviour for these councillors close your eyes and make like it didn't happen and now they will deny being there to see it

Absolutely disgusting behaviour however I would hope that the outage from the public would be the same if it was a male journalist. While I agree with Christian’s comment, I think gender shouldn’t be a factor here. No person (male or female) should be aggressively handled and that senior manager should be held accountable.

Disappointing to see where the Council has landed after many years, had some good times there in the 90s

LattéLife Wingecarribee I wish you guys would write more like this:
"An award-winning local journalist, Madeline Archenza, has today reported that she was pushed and grabbed by the arm while attending council offices. The alleged assault occurred at 6PM. She says the Wingecarribee Shire Council senior manager exhibited an ‘aggressive outburst’, grabbed her arm and pushed her backwards. A member of the public intervened. Councillors Whipper, Nelson, McLaughlin and Mayor Duncan Gair were also present and reportedly made no attempt to stop the attack. A number of other people also witnessed the event. The matter has been reported to the police."
Cristian King's opinion of the event is relevant but his use of the phrase "Any man who assaults a woman is not a man", whilst easy to agree with, is emotive and loaded with personal bias. It does not help anyone. Reporting in an unbiased, reasoned manner actually adds more weight to the facts. There is no need for editorialsation when reporting truthful events.

There’s no excuse to bullying, the councillors need to be sacked and as for the one that grabbed the journalist needs prosecution
