Mineral water scores
A Landline story broadcast on 13 September 2026 cited scores of 100 and 99 received by an Australian mineral water company’s products at the Taste & Design Awards 2026 water tasting competition in Montreal. Those scores were each given by one judge on a panel of six judges and were not representative of the full panel’s lower overall assessment of the products. The story should have provided further context so viewers could better understand how the products performed in the competition. The program has been updated on ABC iview and other platforms, as has a related digital story conveying the same point.
