ABC is Political

[Sean K]

She has been invited to talk to the Central Land Council and wont given they would be there recon Jacinta would be sipping tea with Gina instead more her style at least that's what the mob from the Land Council say.

Yeah, I'm sure she's sipping tea with Gina. Disgusting! What a terrible Aboriginal.

 

[IFocus]

Thats a question for the various Aboriginal Land Councils to me Jacinta is a politician

Yeah, Pearson, Mayo, Langdon, Mansell et al, aren't politicians at all

Yay !!!

Stan Grants available to take over, only joking, apart from where there is a conflict of interest, I always found him to be pretty sensible.

Stan Grant... I always found him to be pretty sensible.

Like the day he had a tanty and kicked the Russian out of QandA?

Ah yes I forgot about that, maybe Alan Jones will get a guernsey or Andrew Bolt, just to swing it back the other way a bit.

Stan is leaving the ABC and going to Denmark.

Nice retreat there SP wouldn't want to unset the extremist here you know Stans skin color and Aboriginality etc.

What does Warren Mundine think

'Stan Grant and I went to university together, we've been mates for over 30 years - brothers, in fact, we consider ourselves - so there is no question about where he comes from and no question about his Aboriginality at all,' he said.

'Over the years, I have seen silly tweets saying he got dark skin or he's pale - that is absolute nonsense.'

"He said it was 'disgusting' that anyone would question the percentage of someone's indigenous heritage - slamming it as a 'racist attack'"

No campaigner doubles down on claim Stan Grant darkens his skin

David Adler, who is head of the Australian Jewish Association, uploaded photos of Grant on social media in May - just days after he stepped down as host of Q&A due to ongoing racial abuse.

Absolutely irrelevant to the argument at hand, viz that he lacks the emotional control to be Kommissar of the Sovietized Broadcasting Corporation

I follow Annabel Crabbs Kitchen Cabinet series with interest. It might look "lightweight" but one can see how she is angling to get interviewees to be authentic perhaps even genuine.

The Guardian noted that Annabel was not impressed with a particular critique of her interviewing. Her response offered a great insight into what she achieves with the particular interviewing technique. Well worth a read . The response is in the second URL

Thanks for the link to the article about Stan darkening his skin and the questions regarding Lidia's % Aboriginality. I think Stan has either darkened his skin, or he made it lighter in his early days, but it's absolutely 100% changed over time. Maybe it's a medical condition? Lidia is about 8% Aboriginal.

The Guardian and the ABC seem to be closely related. Funny that.

 

[basilio]

The article is about the original story by Tim Dunlop, which he acknowledges wasn't his finest work, and the response by Annabel Crabb which, in my view, offered an excellent insight into what the kitchen cabinet series of programs wanted to achieve.

Well I never went to uni, so didnt get to rub shoulders with legends like Stan, I just did an apprenticeship and had had to make do with Legends like Stubbie Chitty and his family, normal people just having a normal life, without the fanfare.

Anyone seen an ABC article supporting a NO case?

 

[SirRumpole]

Today's Insiders was a complete joke.

4 "Journalists" running propaganda for the Voice, with no dissenting voices allowed.

Instead of having Patricia Karvelas, a known Voice proponent on the panel, they should have invited Warren Mundine or Jacinta Price to provide some balance.
