SPOT ON!!

I think her arguments are quite hot and her appearance quite logical.

Or something like that.

p.s. I'm ashamed of being so male...

Why perennialy bash the ABC? Of course they lean left with their news, current affairs and occasional dodumentary. This is plain to see and really does not engender argument. Accept it.
Name a MSM or blog site that does not push their own barrow whether it be influenced by gender, politics, race or editorial influence. Their views are their reason for existence, and they are there to promote them.
It's up to us to make our own choices and either pander to your own prejudices to watch or read what you like/agree with, or seek a balance.

It will never be time to privatise the ABC. Ads drive people crazy, and the ABC is the only safe place to save your sanity. Admittedly the ABC can be self-indulgent, but it's all we've got. The only penetrating questions asked of anyone are asked by ABC journalists.

Johnj - yeah fair call, although I think you will find Stephen O'Doherty found himself far more at home at 2GB (along with people like Brian Wilshire and John Tingle - Shooter's Party) doing talkback than at the ABC, prior to parliament, but anyway, I think enkew is on the money - the ABC is left like the sun rises in the east. Deal with it.

Hey teajay - good call too ;)

The day the ABC is privatised I'll throw my TV set out the window. It won't be of any use to me anymore.
