Our hugely diverse media
Dear Editor,
Apropos of Joel Deane’s review of Ross Garnaut’s book Let’s Tax Carbon, for all the blame placed on a supposedly but in fact hugely diversified homogenised media, Deane ignores the role of the public (ABR, March 2025). This very magazine remains a key platform for intellectuals both to review and present thought and contribute to it, but the average reader is a non-combatant, lulled by comfort and a sort of existential hopelessness into indifference.
