Why does government funding equate with perceived or real bias?The Guardian has no beef either way I would have thought , it's not government funded.
The ABC has turned into a minorities first broadcaster, the mainstream is in the background. They have been taken over by feminists and SJWs and are losing credibility imo.
Why does government funding equate with perceived or real bias?
Organisations surround themselves with people who think like they do.
You will get the occasional maverick, but in the main the group think is reinforced.
Its the same reason that the murdoch press surrounds themselves with mostly conservative thinkers.

Sort of.
He will fight hard for the Conservatives until it's obvious that they are going to lose, then he'll switch sides and pretend he's the people's friend.
Which election, that report is three years old.What date was the election....Bill Shorten rebuffs Rupert Murdoch on US meeting
Opposition Leader Bill Shorten signals he will not meet with Rupert Murdoch, breaking a long tradition of Australian political leaders who have felt compelled to pay court to the media proprietor.www.abc.net.au
I remember it was before the last election. One of the Guardians of the Corporatocracy tried to program Bill Shorten who promptly told him to get stuffedWhich election, that report is three years old.

I thought there was some rule about pollies not aking private sector jobs until a 12 months had passed since their demise..Optus announces the appointment of Ms Gladys Berejiklian to the newly created role of Managing Director, Enterprise, Business and Institutional to lift its focus on unlocking a greater share of the multi-billion-dollar enterprise, business, and institutional markets.
In announcing the appointment, Optus CEO Kelly Bayer Rosmarin commented that:
“Optus has set its vision to become Australia’s most loved everyday brand with lasting customer relationships by redefining what customers should expect from their communication provider through our relentless pursuit of best-in-class service, greater innovation, better value and connectivity for all Australians.”
“To deliver on our vision we need to think and do things differently and we need to attract amazing people who bring diverse experiences and new ways of thinking to our industry. So, I am thrilled to announce that Gladys Berejiklian will join our talented and experienced executive team to help transform our approach to business customers.”
“Gladys is a proven leader who demonstrated her renowned strength, leadership, discipline, and composure in successfully guiding Australia’s largest state through one of the biggest challenges in its history while earning the support and gratitude of the community for her tireless contribution. She also builds and fosters loyal and dedicated teams who really go above and beyond for her.”
Gladys did not muck around in getting a nice high paying job in the private sector after her unfortunate departure from NSW Politics.

No wonder she declined a job offer from Scomo.
This one pays a lot more, is less stressful, she won't have people prying into her love life, and there is every possibility it will last a little longer.

Sounds like a bs job to me.
Yes, but seems the norm these days, Julia Gillard, Bob Carr and quite a few on the Libs have all got cushy jobs soon after.
Optus is basically a Chinese owned firm these days.It seems a bit 'courageous' of Optus to give her a job before the Commission releases it's report.
An adverse finding for Gladys could be embarrassing for Optus.
