Ms Siobhán Holliman:

I am aware of Senator Cassells's keen support for the local media industry. At a personal level it is very much appreciated that it continues to be highlighted. I have first-hand knowledge of the local media industry. It has been my job all of my life to date. I can assure Senator Cassells that I am not a dinosaur. I do not believe local media is in any way extinct at this stage. We are alive and well.
