Vice-chancellor salaries have been a hot topic. Today we learn about 300 university executives were paid more than their premier or chief minister. Sarah Landsdown reports on new union analysis that found the average VC was paid double the Prime Minister's salary. And she reports how many execs at the ANU and the UC earn more than Andrew Barr. Twice as many city dwellers are looking to jump ship and move to regional areas, new data shows, but a lack of infrastructure and dwindling housing supply has stoked fears the bush won't keep pace with soaring demand, Eleanor Campbell reports.
Jailed former military lawyer David McBride has spoken about how tough life is inside Canberra's Alexander Maconochie Centre, where he's imprisoned for leaking more than 200 secret defence documents. Steve Evans reports on a TV interview McBride gave from inside the prison. And in sport, David Polkinghorne reports the Canberra Capitals are looking to a special jersey for inspiration this week, while the Canberra Raiders are pitching for the city to host a Magic Round.
