If you read the article in the link, why did the reporter put in the last sentence, other than to bias the report.
There were no similarities between the issues at all, other than the ones the reporter was trying to introduce.

Little bit naughty.....lol
The bias I see is Abbott is constantly portrayed as being aggressive and radical with no apparent insight to the issues.
Yet time after time his stance has been proven right, still the media pursue him and try to prove him wrong or trip him up.
It is a shame they don't pursue the P.M with the same gusto.
The other observation I have made is when Abbott is given time and allowed to respond to questions, without the reporter constantly interupting, he seems calm, measured and very passive.
WHO would think - who would believe - that politicians could make a handful of needy, disabled people the object of such shameless power play?
Last week's behaviour by Liberal premiers over the plan to get trials started for the National Disability Insurance Scheme badly misjudged the public mood.
The NSW Premier, Barry O'Farrell, and the Victorian Premier, Ted Baillieu, should have signed up to the trials when the Council of Australian Governments met on Wednesday. Instead they dug in their heels, resisting putting in $70 million and $40 million respectively. Despite the federal government providing most of the money for the proposed trials (in the Hunter and Barwon regions), the premiers insisted Canberra should pay the lot.

So why won't Gillard front up to Andrew Bolt or Alan Jones?
Thats how he is ever the conservatives shake their heads at his rampant popular promises and politics with no thought of the future.
If he had no thought to the future he would be in the labor party.
$300b debt and what to show for it, disater after disaster. To be covered by new taxes and increases to personal tax rates.
Wow that's a winner.
Not sure what you mean here as he refused real interview for months.
Anyone would refuse to be interviewed when it is being doctored to portray what the reporter wants to push.
That is unless you are being spoon fed crap, like the A.B.C feeds up to Gillard, which ends up being an advert to the labor faithfull.
The next bleeding hearts on the t.v will be the A.B.C, because you can bet your bottom dollar when the Libs get in there will be a few A.B.C execs worried.
Gillard has fronted the media continually unlike Abbott just taking photo ops with no questions.
Absolutely the reporters probably belong to the Australian Journalist Association.

Why wouldn't she front them, most are onside and pander to her dribble. Fortunately the majority of Australians don't swallow it, that is obvious by the polls and Gillards reluctance to put her credentials to a vote.
On the insiders he was the most stressed person interviewed this year for good reason as he struggled with thought bubbles continually and Barry was very soft on him.
That's a very fair point. Yes, Ms Gillard and Swannie both regularly appear on "7.30" where they are assured of some benign questions and as much space as they like to ramp up their policies.So why won't Gillard front up to Andrew Bolt or Alan Jones?
Clever illustration to maintain the rights rage but Abbott really is the mad hatter.
So why won't Gillard front up to Andrew Bolt or Alan Jones?
IFocus...Tell me something – are you happy with the performance of the current government?
Dam right they are the second string Howard ministers and haven't gotten any better.You like to run down Abbot and the Libs
Try to add balance but haven't praised Labor for awhile actually.while praising Labor,
Just as most of us on here like to run down the ALP while seeing the positives in Abbot and Co.
But seriously, do you really think this Gillard government is doing a good job?
Do you really think they've behaved ethically in the shifty moves they've pulled to stay in power, are you happy with the lies they've told, do you think they've handled the country's finances and security well enough to make them worthy of being voted back in at the next election?
After all their ****-ups, from the lies about the carbon tax to the costly fiascos of the BER and the roof bats and the indigenous housing, not to mention the illegal immigrant debacle that's costing us thousands of millions of dollars - the list of stuff ups goes on and on..... does this government really inspire your confidence sufficiently to get your vote at the next election?
The current Labor government is politically incompetent full stop letting some one like Abbott in is a serious matter.
So where does that leave us? Who gets your vote at the next election?
...One last comment Abbott says he will remove mining and carbon taxes............no tax thats no tax in the history of federation has ever been removed and not replaced with another tax never has and never will for one very good reason.
Spent morning with Sue + Ian Burrell at Control Systems Technology in West Syd. They need Labor's carbon + mining taxes scrapped to succeed.
Great to visit Tamar Valley Dairy with @andrewnikolic to talk about our plan to repeal the carbon tax and our plans for a stronger Tasmania
