Wednesday, 9 September 2026 #1  ·  Times City  ·  Ground report In 1 day, MCD conducts safety survey of 1,150 PGs housing 20,000 people By Amitanand Choudhary   ·   The Times of India, New Delhi  ·  Page 5 Following Delhi High Court's direction, MCD teams visited 1,150 paying guest accommodations across all 12 zones in a single day, finding 20,000 occupants and identifying around 40 buildings needing minor repairs and six to eight needing major work. The story exposes a critical gap between the ordered 'structural audit' and the far less rigorous 'physical survey' MCD is actually conducting, with structural engineer Aditya Sharma questioning whether such a rushed exercise can prevent future collapses. MCD officials acknowledge that 70-80% of Delhi buildings lack sanctioned plans, making genuine structural audits near-impossible. The reporter goes beyond official announcements to expose the cr

Karl Stefanovic's podcast has lost its major sponsor, with the Sydney Morning Herald confirming that Ringers Western has no plans to renew its agreement that ends in September. The news comes against a backdrop of no recent episodes being uploaded in the past two weeks. Herald media writer Calum Jaspan reached out to Australian clothing company Ringers Western, who had been the most prominent sponsor of the Stefanovic pocast, to enquire about the lack of activity on the program. Ringers Western said it's sponsorship deal with The Karl Stefanovic Show had concluded. Both the Herald and News.com.au reported yesterday that attempts to reach Stefanovic or business partner Keshnee Kemp had resulted in no response. Just prior to his last upload, Stefanovic had been the centre of debate when Robert Irwin made a crack at his expense at the start of the Logies. "Unfortunately, Karl Stefanovic didn't RSVP tonight... we saved him a spare seat. It's over there to the ri

PISA shock: Australian teens hit 25-year lows in reading and maths Fresh international test results show Australian students’ reading and maths performance has slumped to its weakest levels in a generation, with more students now classed as low performers. The breadth of coverage underscores a national policy problem—spanning curriculum, classroom discipline and the impact of screens—likely to intensify pressure on state and federal governments ahead of the next round of education reforms.

Labor’s “My Feed, My Way” plan sets up a major tech and free-speech fight The Albanese government’s proposed digital duty-of-care laws would let users opt out of algorithm-driven feeds, backed by big penalties for platforms and expanded minister/eSafety powers—triggering an immediate political clash with the Coalition over censorship and who defines “harmful” con

It was at the end of his first week at Mumbrella that Zac Nikolovski knew he could handle his new reporter role, after breaking a story involving One Nation’s media policy.  “[One Nation] told me on the record that they would scrap SBS entirely and scale back the ABC to a regional-only role. Importantly, this was before Pauline Hanson's press club speech, where she said that,” Nikolovski told Influencing.  He says it was confirmation he was capable of breaking big stories, after going through university with a degree of imposter syndrome, being two or three years older than his classmates, and not from Sydney. It's one of several standout moments from his four months at Mumbrella, alongside being part of various Mumbrella events. The One Nation story remains one of Nikolovski's favourites, as does a 2,500-word feature he wrote on marketing within the video game Fortnite. “I enjoyed [it] because I play Fortnite outside of work, but that was a story where I realised the
