ABC is Political

Maybe because Albrechtsen would be up against 30 year + political veterans who would make her look as ordinary as she is. I have read quite a bit of her dialogue and cannot remember any of analytical worth mostly just bile and spite.

Of course Ms Albrechtsen would be unappealing to you. She is too articulate and realistic, and above all, is philosophically disposed toward the Libs.

If you're going to consider 'bile and spite' you could never find a better example than your Prime Minister. She has it in spades.
 


What absolute rubbishy you clearly have never read the shallow spite and bile Albrechtsen puts forth.

Bolt can construct more sense than her
 
I wouldn't be commenting on her contributions if I'd not read what she writes.

Instead of making spiteful comments, why can't you just simply say you philosophically disagree with her.
No need for the vitriol.
 

what a warped perception of reality you have, must be refreshing
 
Extracting a confession out of Abbott starts the smear


ABC's Leigh Sales cleared of bias over Abbott interview

The broadcasting watchdog has dismissed allegations that 7.30 host Leigh Sales showed bias against Opposition Leader Tony Abbott.

The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) investigated the interview, broadcast on August 22, in which Ms Sales grilled Mr Abbott over his claim that BHP suspended its Olympic Dam project as a result of the Federal Government's carbon tax.

Ms Sales extracted an admission from Mr Abbott that he had not read BHP's statement, which made no mention of the tax.

You mean broadcasting lapdog don't you ?
 
IF, your continual clutching of straws over the opposition is rather stupid, imo.

You never comment on Gillard and what she and swan have done with the $20 billion in the bank which is now something like $260 billion on loan.

You never want indepth information about Gillard's involvement in setting up a slush fund from which something close to $2 million of union members funds have disappeared. Questions that need to be answered as she now holds the highest office in the land.

Where is your outrage over the thousands of people arriving here on a daily basis taking welfare from our working australian families?

Where is your outrage at the moves afoot to curb our freedom of speech?

Where is your outrage at the nasty outbursts dished out by Gillard in parliament? Calling Abbott a misogynist while not hardly a peep about Slipper?

Are you an import like McTernan?
 
I think both sides of the political divide can go on forever citing their beliefs in bias or non-bias and it becomes a conversation of the deaf.

If I were to become Prime Minister, the first action I would take to make the ABC a more legitimate voice for all Australians would be to move it's headquarters out, in to regional or rural Australia.

Incestuous behaviour is inevitable when bodies who believe they are beautiful or talented are in too close proximity.

Many of the ABC Executive, Broadcasters, Commentators and Guest luvvies all live within a 15km radius of each other in either Sydney or Melbourne.

This is not healthy.

They behave like incestuous families, denying that there is any illicit behaviour and that if there is, that it is understandable and they are sorry and it will not occur again.

So these incestuous rabbits work together, socialise together, recruit new members to their hutches who are of the "right stuff".

It is not then difficult to see how the ABC is in such a parlous state at the moment, with it's news and current affairs programmes ignored by over 85% of the population.

This malaise was noted in the recent report in to the BBC, a sister organisation to the ABC, where it was found nobody had the balls or ovaries to take a stand against a prevailing orthodoxy. The BBC is critically damaged as a result.

So to save our ABC, not the ABC of the litter glitteratti and luvvies, let us decentralise it, and move it away from the tired old farts who presently run it in Sydney and Melbourne.

Quite the best and most clear account I've read of this affair is in an article by Terry O'Connor, former head of West Australia's Anti-Corruption Commission.
Well worth reading imo.

OK, sorry, noco. I didn't notice your post and only got round to reading that part of the paper today.

As do the ABC Governance Committees.

For the rest of us long suffering listeners/viewers I should quote Terence MacSwiney.

"It is not those who can inflict the most, but those that can suffer the most who will conquer."

Yes, and I posted it before this.

 
The ABC is a joke.
This morning Michael Rowlands insinuated that the ABC was not biased.
The next minute whilst interviewing Joe Hockey about the latest ALP stuff up (the NON surplus) he is trying to score points with Hockey about how Howard introduced the GST (quoting how he had flipped on previous statements - Hockey brought him back to reality by saying he took the change to an election).

Rowlands, Carvalho and the other presenters are hypocrites.

I remember Karina Carvalho being mocking and aggressive with Tony Abbott one morning. This sort of behaviour should be left to the shock jocks.

So much for the ABC's independence.

I resent paying for ALP advertising!
 
You should listen to Country ABC from Bendigo, it is so biased right wing that it keeps hitting the truth wall.

And on the global hysteria it leaves wayneL for dead.

Presumably this is part of the ABC Local Radio network? This network seems content to leave focus and content pretty much to individual presenters/producers, unlike Radio National which would suit you much better Explod with its incessant and determined left bias.
