NowUC, the Uni of Canberra’s online news site has been throwing some interesting stuff up from time to time for a while now. Mainly a vehicle for journalist students and as a source of campus news they do manage to get interviews with some interesting and influential individuals. So imagine our surprise when in watching Natalie Loudon’s piece on tourism in the ACT during which she focuses on the effect of online activity and interviews the Shadow Minister for Tourism and former Opposition Leader Brendan Smyth she leads in talking about RiotACT and even talks to our recently departed editor JB. Despite momentary distraction by a background cameo it’s an interesting piece in it’s own right and I would not be surprised if we see young Natalie’s face on the TV in years to come.
