Abstract
Cabramatta is s suburb with a particularly high media profile, so much so that in Sydney it has become a household name. It ies within Fairfield City Council, which is one of the most culturally diverse local government areas in Australia (Fairfield City Council 1996, p117). Mainstream media images of Cabramatta present it to a city-wide, and occasionally a nation-wide, audience so the people I spoke to were all acutely aware of Cabramatta's high media profile.
