THE ABC's flagship Sunday morning current affairs program Insiders is losing a larger share of viewers than other dwindling news programs on the national broadcaster's main channel as the corporation fails to meet a raft of key performance measures.
Briefing notes prepared for managing director Mark Scott for last October's Senate estimates hearings, obtained under Freedom of Information laws, concede viewers are turning off the ABC even as the broadcaster chases additional taxpayer funds....

Average audiences for 7.30 and Four Corners - down 3%
Foreign Correspondent - down 6%
7pm news - down 8%
Insiders - plummetted 14%
Meanwhile spending on consultants double from $1.9 to $3.8 million
Revenue fell from the ABC's commercial arm, the ABC shops and recordings so relentlessly promoted on TV and Radio - with profit down an alarming $2.4M to $5.5M
James Paterson’s Diary, 13 February 2013

"..The best thing about appearing on Q&A...It’s logging on to Twitter afterwards and reading hundreds of abusive tweets from enraged lefties so that you know you’ve done your job.....
I can’t resist the opportunity, and point out that if the ALP really thinks a Q&A audience is a representative sample of the Australian community, no wonder they are in such bad shape. It wins me no friends in the audience, who loudly groan......
There’s even an online petition with 2,000 signatures calling for the IPA to be banned from the ABC. Without us, what would these people do with their lives?”
As with "ALP Insiders", I've given up on Q&A, but I'm sorry I missed it this week.
Thanks for that, sails. I've also given up watching Q & A, along with The Insiders.
Good to see James Paterson making his point so clearly.
Thanks Sails, check the frowns on Jones and the other panellists. They're accustomed to marshalling Paterson's demographic.Logique, here is the video of his comments on Roxon’s discrimination law - he explains it well:... [Youtube above]
A definite change in tone on Insiders this week. They've finally given up hope of any life from the decaying corpse that is the current Labor government.

Inetersting final tip as well. Internal polling (union I think it was) has primary Labor support in the NSW seat of Lindsay at 20%.

Yes, I thought that too Dr Smith, definitely a change in tone and more focus on Labor and the Greens and less on Abbott this week.
It's too late for me.
They have lost me as a viewer for too much blatant pro ALP and anti Coalition propaganda.

One other thing I noticed was that Barry Cassidy was much tougher on Adam Bandt this week than he was on Greg Combet last week.Yes, I thought that too Dr Smith, definitely a change in tone and more focus on Labor and the Greens and less on Abbott this week.
+ 1 GG. I should imagine there will be lots of ethnic cleansing after the election.
