Says Darling and Murphy would defend the ABC but Sir Richard Boyer would not. See here. In radio and TV but especially in radio. Says radio and TV not integrated. Never thought "why am I doing this program this way? What is the reason?"
Talks about influence of Lord Reith here. Says no equivalent of Reith here. Set up so differently than BBC but the nearest one could find was Sir Charles Moses bc Moses was there for 25 years. Said Moses did some stuff like introducing music and big on sport. Had more influence on ABC than any one man due to his long tenure. Felt things got far too centralised here.
Discusses Australian content here. ABC always given Austrlalian content priority. Since 1956 discussions about ways to increase Australian content. Interview in 1972 and they are introducing points system.
