You aren't a seasoned watcher are you? There's no conspiracy in that, Tony does the same thing to Liberal cronies.

Thanks for acknowledging my helping you.

Yes..Tisme thank you for that assistance.

But I still say Jones is very transparent ....I thought Bling Freddie would be able to see through Jones.
 
I see the Chasers starts tonight, but this time it has been moved from the News Division so it can be more biased
 
Chris Kenny sums up the ABC bias and its love for that hypocrite Tony Windsor.

Windsor talks up big about Climate change but sells his farm to the coal mining industry which has been accused of supplying too much C02 into the atmosphere.

Windsor did not have the guts to stand in his old electorate in 2013.

There’s been a lot of Windsor love at their ABC lately. No, not theQueen ”” they’ve been polite but restrained about her record-breaking reign. The national broadcaster has been particularly amorous towards the former independent MP Tony Windsor.

Windsor seems to have something or other on his liver, to be sure. He strikes me as one of the angriest blokes in a pretty feral polity. Even on the ABC or on Twitter, where myriad Abbott-haters jockey for daily prominence, this bitter former pollie is in a league of his own.

He is the ex-conservative independent who installed Julia Gillard and Labor, then barracked for their carbon tax while selling his farm to coal interests and leasing it back. But no, the ABC hasn’t harangued him over that.

Windsor defended the indefensible mistakes and incompetence of the Gillard government and promised to put his record on the line by running in the 2013 election ”” then didn’t. But no, Aunty’s people haven’t pressured him over that either. He is grabbing extra publicity now by threatening to run again (don’t hold your breath) but the ABC hasn’t pinned him down on that either.

You cannot help laughing......But you note the ABC will let it all go through to the keeper in their usual biased fashion.

If it had been Andrew Bolt who had mad that bungle, the ABC would have played it out on every channel for a week.

Andrew Bolt making faux pas is not news.
 
A Harley-Davidson bike rider is riding by the zoo, when he sees a little girl leaning into the lions' cage.
Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her into the cage, under the eyes of her screaming parents.

The biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and smacks the lion square on the nose, with one hell of a punch.
Shocked and whimpering with pain, the lion releases the girl, and jumps back - and the biker brings her to her terrified parents, who immediately thank him endlessly.

A news reporter standing nearby has stood and watched the whole event. The reporter rushes up, and addressing the H-D rider, says ... "Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I've ever seen a man do, in my whole life!"

The bike rider replies, "Why, it was nothing, really. The lion was behind the bars.
I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted like anyone else would."

The reporter says, "Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a journalist, and tomorrow's news will have the story. So, what do you do for a living, and where were you riding to?'

The biker replied, "I'm an SAS soldier just returned from Afghanistan, and I was just heading off to a right-wing political party meeting!"

The journalist thanks him and leaves.

The following morning the biker turns the tv to the ABC news and sees:

"SAS SOLDIER ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH."
 

That was probably the ABC or Fairfax....they do tend to exaggerate and expand on some tit bit news just as they tried to frame Andrew Hastie with cutting off the hands of some Taliban.....Take control of the media and you control the naive who believe it.
 
Even Bary Humphries is awake to how far left the ABC is in relation to politics.....Even the POMS can see it and anybody who takes them for fools are no mugs.

Australia’s greatest comedic export, Barry Humphries, says the ABC has become an extreme left-wing broadcaster and the former prime minister Tony Abbott was correct to criticise it.

“The ABC has become increasingly left wing. Blatantly so. Indeed so has another notable Australian newspaper,” Humphries said in an interview with The Australian.

“And I was surprised that they (the ABC) can be so openly of the extreme left.”

During his visits to Australia, about four times a year, his esteem for the public broadcaster has diminished, although he thoroughly enjoyed Sarah Ferguson’s The Killing Season — while *suspecting the ABC produced it to ingratiate itself with the government during a difficult time in their relationship.

Humphries said the criticisms of the ABC by the former prime minister were justified.

“They were getting very worried about they relationship with the prime minister so they made this program with Rudd and *Gillard to ingratiate themselves, The Killing Season, one of the best things the ABC has done,” he said.

When Humphries reads the newspapers each day, he said he becomes “steamed up” and often finds himself angrily writing a *letter to the editor.

But he rarely sends them in.

“Every day when I read the paper something occurs when I get steamed up or fired up, steamed up, whatever, irate and I write a letter and never send it,” he said. “I have a pile. I should publish the letters. There’ve been a few good letters of mine.”
 
Having reluctantly watched QandA last night, it came a bit surprising to see Tony Jones allowing such criticism of his beloved leftie Bill Shorten.

It was well mentioned how the Labor Party are moving to the extreme left into socialism.

Has Tony Jones seen the light on the hill?

Institute of Public Affairs director John Roskam, who said he has known Mr Shorten since primary school, said the opposition leader was managing a party that was “increasingly going left” and his challenge was to rise above it “to improve the quality of politics and policy.”

“It is not the party of Hawke, Keating, not the party of reform. It is a party that seems to be in thrall to a union movement,” Mr Roskam said. “It is a party that seems to be turning its back on the world.”

Shadow health minister Catherine King said her party’s leader had an “enormous capacity” to build partnerships.

“You saw it in disability, you have seen it in his Australian Workers Union days where he really was quite a moderate in terms of being able to actually broker deals between employers and the union to get the best outcomes for workers,” Mr King said.

Discussions about Mr Shorten’s leadership aptness turned to the Trade Union Royal Commission through which it was revealed he had failed to declare nearly $60,000 worth of electoral expenses, Mr Marr said.

“That bit, which is truly damaging and truly outrageous of Shorten, has been swept aside,” he said.

“What we are looking at instead is an area of possible conflicts of interest between the deals done when he was the leader of the AWU, deals he was simultaneously doing to have employers pay the union for various things and settling the wage rates and conditions for the workers themselves.”

Mr Marr said he agreed “just a little bit” with a questioner who asserted Australians had begun to “lean heavily to the left” but said their disenchantment with Mr Abbott was due to his “ultra conservative” and combative leadership style.

Ha ! Anyone to the Left of you is a socialist old chap.

As Union leaders come Shorten is one of the most moderate who wants to ensure that Australians have jobs after CHAFTA. That's his job.

Remember John Halfpenny and Norm Gallagher ? I wouldn't compare Shorten with either of those two fruitcakes.

BTW didn't your hero Barnaby bluster when we couldn't answer the question about how much Direct Action would cost to achieve 28% reduction in CO2 emmissions ?

Just shows what a crock Direct Action is.
 
Catherine King the rudest politician.

King continually interrupted and over spoke Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce whenever he tried to answer a question on qanda.

Jones did not stop her.

That women has no class.
 

Yes Rumpy, it is all starting to unravel.....left...center left...extreme left and socialist left ....Take your pick......The Labor Party are slowly progressing from one to the other and sooner or later voters will be the judge.

The LUG party had no idea what their cost would be with their 50% renewable energy target until Treasury told them...The figure was outrages.

Do you have any figures or a link on the Direct Action plan which we are told has reduced emissions by something like 10 times that of Labor's carbon tax which Gillard said "there will be no carbon tax under a government I lead".....Just thought I would prod your memory and barnacle Bill wants to bring it back as his policy going into the next election, that is of course if he is still the Labor Partly leader by then.
 
I noticed that media tart and leftist Barnaby Joyce was once again appearing on his favourite show last night. He must have got permission from his new Labor boss Malcolm.

It's about time the ABC provided a balanced panel with less Joyce and Turnbull and more from Alex Hawke, Debbie Robinson, Pauline, Saraya Beric, Cory , etc.

It's only right that equal views be provided across the political landscape ... it's the keystone of our great socialist society.
 

Yes, I would like to see Bernadi and Hanson try to answer some tough questions and argue their looney viewpoints in public.

See Cory is really an old school Labor man who couldn't find a niche in that party and had to do a Brendan Nelson by taking the easy preselection path into politics. His pedigree is the pre sixties political bedrocks common to both major parties and the vast majority of citizens at the time: white australia, protectionism, nationalism, hard work, paternalism, Doris Day and BP Pick a Box.

And worse he's South Australian so theatrics and Salvation Jane runs in his blood.
