Waleed Aly apologises for doctored segment attacking PM
24/12/2019|4min

The Project host Waleed Aly has issued a lengthy on-air apology saying he needed to “come clean” about a “mistake” after his program ran a short clip of footage out of context which falsely suggested a volunteer fire fighter was criticising Prime Minister Scott Morrison.

The selectively edited footage showed Rural Fire Service volunteer Jacqui declaring that Mr Morrison was “not my prime minister”.

An unedited version of the exchange later surfaced on social media which showed that Jacqui, a British citizen, was referring to the fact that her prime minister was Boris Johnson.

Mr Aly broadcast an apology on Tuesday night after Network 10 suffered widespread criticism online where the original doctored clip was shared prolifically.

“We need to make a correction in relation to that clip,” Mr Aly said on The Project.

“It turns out that there was a longer exchange between Jacqui and the PM that followed that.

“She explained that she was in fact a UK citizen and that is why ScoMo was not her PM.

“The problem for us is that significant parts of that were inaudible. We couldn't deduce what was in that exchange.”

The excuse for using the footage out of context was not received well online with many users questioning why Network Ten producers were unable to hear the same video that later surfaced online, which was shot by Channel 9 and then shared with other media outlets.

Mr Aly also revealed the volunteer herself wanted it made clear her comment was “light-hearted” and not an attack on Mr Morrison.

“We spoke to the Rural Fire Service today … Jacqui wants to be crystal clear, the comment was meant to be light-hearted, she has no issue with the PM,” he said.

“This was clearly not a deliberate mistake on our part but was a mistake nonetheless. We think it is important own up to your mistakes and to come clean about these sorts of things. So we take full responsibility for it.”

The original bulletin was uploaded to Twitter where it resulted in online activists praising the volunteer for her supposed takedown of the PM with ‘#JacquiForPM’ and ‘#NotMyPrimeMinister’ becoming trending topics across Australia for most of the day.

What's wrong, am I shattering the illusion that ScuMo made ABC "great" again?

I thought that was suspect when I saw it on the news. Not surprised about Waleed Aly. He's a sleaze ball. Can you believe some people say they would vote for Aly as PM? The pathetic thing is I think they actually mean it.

Mmmm, why are you talking a star of a commercial network's program in a thread supposedly about the ABC's bias?
