Correcting Steve Jackson in The Australian
The story by Steve Jackson in The Australian today ("Rumours rife Hamish Macdonald is keen to cut back on ABC shifts") is incorrect. Jackson was told yesterday: "There's no truth to this. Hamish hasn't asked to go to three days and it isn't happening." It's disappointing The Australian still chose to rely on unsourced rumours after being told they were baseless. Hamish has been engaged by the ABC since 2016, including presenting ABC Radio Sydney Mornings, Q+A and Radio National Breakfast, reporting for Foreign Correspondent, hosting special broadcast events such as the Australian of the Year and presenting documentary series including The China Century and Reef Live. He has also hosted Take Me To Your Leader since 2022 and Global Roaming since the start of 2024. Hamish is taking some leave in June, which was planned and approved before he joined ABC Radio Sydney, and Kathryn Robinson will fill in for him. Media contact Laura Todd, ABC Communications

VIDEO: The Body Hunters: Colombia's real-life CSI squad
After more than half a century of armed conflict in Colombia, over a hundred thousand people are still missing, presumed dead. Decades of violence between leftist guerillas and right-wing paramilitary groups left large parts of the country lawless. The brutality of the notorious drug cartels only made the violence worse. Now the Colombian government has made it its mission to find the bodies of the missing. On Foreign Correspondent reporter Natashya Gutierrez embeds with the CSI squad determined to find closure for the loved ones left behind. She visits the dig sites where searches are underway and meets the criminal forensic team using new technology to build replica images from skeletal remains. Natashya also talks to a former paramilitary soldier, forcibly recruited as a teenager, who admits his involvement in assassinations and murders.
