Young Journalist of the Year: Coverage of Community and Regional Affairs

Briana Fiore is a WA-based journalist, photographer and radio presenter. She grew up in Harvey and is passionate about sharing stories and uncovering the truth. Briana covers breaking news, local government, State politics, court, crime, agriculture, entertainment, sport and weather.

Judges’ comments:

“Briana’s initiative to start a beat for her Filipino community ultimately led to the exposure of Bunbury Hospital’s toxic culture and fatal failings, including the death of a mother during childbirth. The relationships and trust she forged resulted in breaking stories that ensured the issues were not only brought to light, but investigated by authorities.”
