ABC TV has moved Four Corners producer Lin Buckfield to the role of executive producer for Media Watch.

Buckfield will replace Jo Puccini, who has been in the position since April 2008.

Puccini will leave her role this week to become a supervising producer for the public broadcaster’s current affairs show Lateline.

Buckfield has worked as a producer for Four Corners on three separate occasions, starting with a three-year stint in 2000. She then moved to the Nine Network for two years as senior producer in its investigative unit with reporter and author Paul Barry.

Congrats to Buckfield… now, can anyone explain how this 20 minute TV show warrants such a long roll call of credits at the end? The show looks very highly staffed for its length and focus.

Brilliant work on 4 corners. Media watch needs a kick up the bum – its been disappointing for about a year.
