The demise of Australia’s public broadcaster into 'their scary ABC' : Comments

By Charles Essery, published 20/5/2020

I now watch SBS (and Sky and international channels) more these days than the ABC because it aims to operate by its charter.

The fact remains: only 30% of Australians use the ABC, but all Australians have to pay for it. That cannot be regarded as fair.

An extremely researched article.

So why do Australians continually have to fund the ABC? With our taxpayers dollars?

It's a "left wing"/ "Greenies" view on everything.

Try turning into Sky News on Fox - where you will get - yes, the left and right view of every argument/policy/decision.

It's most educational - unlike the current programs on ABC which we- as taxpayers - are paying for.

Where are you Ita?- you promised much, but gave us nothing.

As far as I'm concerned, thank God for "... aggressive 'gotcha' interrogations..." by ABC journalists. If our politicians weren't such hypocrites and liars there would be no need for 'gotcha interrogations'. Luckily, some ABC journalists do their jobs and expose these lies and/or double standards.

This whole rant is simply an IPA bullying stooge upset because the ABC won't toe the ideological line as the IPA have declared it should be. Go watch Andrew and Peta and Alan etc. if that's your idea of 'balance'.

This article really must have hit the open wounds of "Their Scary ABC" luvies... and poured salt on them.

The abuse and slinging of names and ill-founded accusations about authors and comment posters is always the last resort of bad losers and those who can't face facts and must life within their government funded safe space bubbles.

Have another double skimmed latte with cinnamon topping and some avo toast Aries54 and have a good watch of The Insiders for a 'balanced view of your world'.
