Well now...doesn't this show all the signs of an exercise straight out of a Chinese security operative text book. I don't see too much Uncle Sam in it.

And further, there is an Australian journalist who has recently served jail time after a persecution process performed on him by 7media.

Looks like the boot changes feet, and the mob cry foul.

If I had my way, the ABC would be shut and barred up long ago, and sold off for its real estate value, which is truthfully, the most of its value!
As for Murdoch press...we'll where is the difference? One stupid ideology or the other...some choice, not!

But of course I'm biased. Not possessing a television or radio, and a non consumer of main stream propaganda newspapers, I don't care what the AFP do to main stream journalists, they won't be missed.

Never noted much sympathy for those put through the wringer with 18c. Funny how the same entities supporting 18c react to an ingress upon their own freedom. Karma!

Considering the troubles journalists cause it wasn't a minute before time !
It wouldn't be so bad if all they did was reporting what is happening but to resort to utter exaggeration, utter misquoting, utter rubbish & pushing their opinions rather than report News then yes, it's time to curb their insidious doings !

You wouldn't have to dig too deeply to find a couple of dozen traitorous conspirators in the ABC.

Once found & jailed, the next thing is to go after the board & senior executives who must know what is happening. A few years for that lot would bring the ABC back to some kind of usefulness.

Of course the best thing to do with the ABC is to give it to the staff, without subsidies. Trying to make a commercial go of it would first destroy their extreme egos, then send them bankrupt. A fitting end for them & the organisation.

Who are the media movers?

Americas White Saviours.

*…As “woke” ideology has accelerated, a growing faction of white liberals have pulled away from the average opinions held by the rest of the coalition of Democratic voters—including minority groups in the party. The revolution in moral sentiment among this one segment of American voters has led to a cascade of consequences ranging from changes in the norms and attitudes expressed in media and popular culture, to the adoption of new political rhetoric and electoral strategies of the Democratic Party. (NB) *Nor has this occurred in a vacuum on the left as the initiatives set in motion by white liberals have, in turn, provoked responses and countermeasures from conservatives and Republicans*…*

So right here, with raids directly confronting the heart of this group, the media base, (particularly the ABC). The raids may simply be a conservative response to Australias own brand of white ultra liberal vandalising masochistic “woke”, ultra liberal phenomena.

This is the very same band of Labor/Green renegades responsible for the vandalism of society with gay rights.
The attack force against Christianity (and Jews). And the defence league of minorities, adding radical outcomes to whatever the minority cause.

High paid public servants leaking to the press deserve everything they get. What happened to confidential clauses? A football player quotes a Scripture on his private social media and gets sacked. Public servants should not be immune to prosecution especially when it comes to leaking to the Marxist on the abc.
