Q+A: ABC reportedly axing current affairs show after 17 seasons
The ABC's current affairs program Q+A is reportedly set to be axed after 17 years on television. The long-running panel show — which first aired in 2008 — was pulled by the National broadcaster despite its expected return to screens in August, according to the Sydney Morning Herald. Q+A had been on break since the end of May, with the show airing for 17 seasons. Patricia Karvelas has hosted the current affairs show since 2023. The decision comes in the same week that Network 10's The Project was axed after 16 years on air.

Winning words warm the night at The Age Book of the Year awards
In a buzzing Athenaeum Theatre on Collins Street last night it was my great privilege to present The Age's Book of the Year prize at the opening of the Melbourne Writers Festival. After seeing so many people gather to celebrate great stories and hearing the passionate yet humble winners speak so generously about their work, I left the theatre feeling warm in spite of the cool night air. Melburnians – and Age readers in particular – love a good book almost as much as they love a festival. The Age Book of the Year award has been handed out more than 40 times now, although there was a hiatus until a few years ago when it was revived. One of the country's coveted literature prizes, it includes both a fiction and non-fiction award, each worth $10,000. Thanks must go to the Copyright Agency's cultural fund for its ongoing financial support of these prizes, for which both The Age and the literary community are extremely grateful. The judges, too, deserve our gratitude for their time and dedication. Our publication, and particularly our arts and culture team, are proud of The Age's long history covering books and supporting writers across the country. Credit for this history must go to my predecessors who recognised the need to support writers and writing through festivals such as the Melbourne Writers Festival, prizes like The Age Book of the Year, and ongoing coverage of the sector. People such as Jason Steger, Kylie Northover, Melanie Kembrey, Kate Lahey and many other members of our newsroom continue to sustain our literature coverage. Loading I firmly believe publications like ours have a duty to support and enthusiastically encourage reading by people of all ages. Engaging with thought-provoking stories is an addiction we are happy to encourage as it improves individuals and enriches society. We welcome debate and discussion of complex and challenging ideas, whether they live in our pages or those of an unclosable novel. On the question of age range, I left last night's Writers Festival function with renewed hope that quality writing is not only the preserve of stereotypical chin-stroking beatniks. Of the two authors to win The Age Book of the Year prizes last night, one, Rodney Hall, is 89. The other, Lech Blaine, is in his early 30s and grew up in a pub in rural Queensland. Two very different authors united by their talent with the written word (and their home state).

Trial date set for reality TV contestant with historical offences
A trial date has been set for a former Channel 7 reality television contestant accused of historical assault offences. Anthony Mu, who appeared on the popular cooking reality show My Kitchen Rules in 2023 alongside his wife Claudean Uamaki-Mu, is facing several assault charges. The identities of the Queensland couple, who were promoted by the Channel 7 network as a 'fiery Italian and a super-chill Samoan with hearts of gold', were suppressed by a non-publication order as it progressed through the courts. Mu's case remains before a local Brisbane court. He remains on bail, and was not present for a brief hearing on Friday morning. Devyn Wanigesekera, who appeared on behalf of Mu's legal team, said the case was listed for trial last Wednesday. It was adjourned last week due to lengthy proceedings for Uamaki-Mu. He said Mu's barrister, Steve Kissick, had estimated a full day for his trial. Acting Magistrate Michael Quinn scheduled for the summary trial to begin for a one-day hearing on July 28. Quinn previously described Uamaki-Mu's charges as extremely serious, saying they involved children, and their protection was paramount. Quinn said some of Uamaki-Mu's charges included pulling a child up by the hair, spitting on a child, and throwing a Tupperware container at the back of a child's head. Her barrister, Simon Lewis, said his client was 'clearly not perfect, and clearly under some stress', and described the behaviour as 'losses of control'.
