ABC is Political

Jump to new
OK so let's be clear on this... You want me to post ABC articles that are critical about Labor's negative gearing policies - excluding articles from 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 ?

As a matter of fact, I said last week that the current softening of the housing market might force the ALP to back down their neg gearing policy so, no, I didn't say "she'll be right" - that's an invention of yours - very much akin to what the Liberal Party does - by any chance, would you be employed by them?

My question was, why aren't Tony Jones and Emma asking the Labor Party about their stance on negative gearing and Capital gains, who gives a $hit what you posted last week.
The thread is about ABC bias, not whether you think the labor Party might be forced to back down, it isn't about you. :eek:

Exactly, it isn't about me. But that doesn't mean I can't respond to your assertion...

O.K so now you are over the pedantic's, what about the current issue of job vacancy adverts?

That isn't mentioned on the ABC.

That doesn't mean they are biased against the Coalition. Pedantic much? Their last article on jobs was just facts and figures - exactly as it should be reported.

By the way that was nasty, cutting and pasting from two of my posts, to try and justify your response.
That is actually what you bag other people for, it is called a lack of integrity.

Lack of integrity is your attempt to throw around false assertions about what I do or don't support. Your opinion of how I respond to it is worthless to me.

Now are you going to post those anti Govt posts x 2 as promised or would you like me to do it?
 
sptrawler said:
Why don't you go down to your post 2905, and quote exactly as it should be reported.
Mate you're full of it.

That says more about you than me. As you said, the thread's not about me.

Your personal attacks are making you look grossly stupid.
 
Like I said, you failed to answer why Tony Jones and Emma don't ask the questions of labors policies, when we as taxpayers deserve that consideration.
like I said, I'm over it, there is nothing I can do or say that will change anything.
I would just like to have a honest discussion about it, that obviously isn't possible, so i just go back into my hole and burrow on. lol

I'm not going to stuff around with Emma anymore than you are with your broken promise to post those anti Abbott et-el articles which now stands at ten according to your unstable rules. Seems to me you failed your own challenge. Paddle your own boat. That's the Conservative way.

Do you realise that post, was 2015? WTF has that got to do with current policy?
If you want to google Tony Abbott news ABC, it is endless.
Tomorrow we can start a collection of LNP and ALP posts, by the ABC. It should be interesting.

Who cares when the post was made? WTF has that got to do with current policy? Everything.
It's relevant to their current neg gearing policy.
Nothing has changed other than a leadership change in the Govt.

Tony Abbott? http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-08-24/dutton-and-abbott-congratulate-scott-morrison/10161204
 
As for selling the ABC, yeah I can agree with that. We'll save a billion a year which we can use to litigate against Murdoch for tax avoidance and save another billion every year as well.

Sell off the ABC and you get another NewsCorp. One of the most biased news organisations in the world, zero investigative journalism, trite rubbish like the Daily Telegraph, and admitted misbehaviour like the bugging fiasco in the UK.

The government just spent 4 times the ABC's budget mollifying Catholic schools, and half their budget to a Save the Reef corporation consisting of their mates. Selling off the ABC could well be an election issue and one that may well sink the Coalition if it hasn't already been sunk.

If Murdoch is avoiding tax , then go after him and give the proceeds to the ABC. LOL

As I said before, the government whether Lib or Lab always gets more criticism from the ABC, as it should be as the government are the ones allegedly running the country and spending the money.

The Coalition and their supporters won't be happy until the ABC really does become another NewsCorp. Then they'll flog it off for a fraction of its previous value due to the attributes you've listed. You know Murdoch Media is worthless when they ask you to pay to read their articles online and yet some are dumb enuff to subscribe because it merely confirms their prejudices.

ooh lookie - more anti Labor bias from the ABC... the bastards > http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-09-27/nsw-labor-questions-political-future-of-pregnant-mp/10314150

WE are talking about why the ABC, doesn't question them on the policy, why is this so hard.
All I'm saying, is they don't ask anything of the Labor Party and their policies, and an election is due soon.

I just found an article two articles on the ABC, one with at least 3 polices - including neg gearing - from about 3 and 4 weeks ago. Nothing has changed since then.

Imagine a Land where all the Media is controlled by big business. We'd have a Media akin to the State run propoganda networks of China and North Korea, albeit on the other end of the spectrum. Imagine the change in Australia then. Imagine the next generation being brainwashed.

The ABC needs to improve but it needs to remain independent and it's funding guaranteed.
