Thankyou Lexi, ever the consummate OLO commenter.

The following has got nothing to do with the topic of this thread:

Perhaps you can do something with it?

http://theconversation.edu.au/australian-media-take-note-the-bbc-understands-balance-in-climate-change-coverage-2462

Why? Because so many ‘right-of-right’ OLO commenters (even on this thread) think Australia’s ABC is biased, with an an acknowledged climate change sceptic (Maurice Newman), as its chairman.

I understand the position is to be renewed in January, 2012.

Britain’s BBC is analogous to Australia’s ABC – no?

As the article says: “Australian media, are you listening?”

My gut feeling? Nope!

Australian’s are still living in the ‘dark ages’ (metaphorically speaking of course) and the MSM (and the ABC) have a lot of ‘growing up’ to do.

ciao for now ;)

Dear bonmot,

Thanks for the link. I think that it's fair enough
and I've got one for you that backs up the dangers of
"increasingly toxic political culture plagued by incivility
and extremist rhetoric..." I posted this link on the Norway
thread - but it might also be of interest here.

I'm feeling very, very sick Lexi - that is mind-shattering and soul destroying.

Dear bonmot,

I agree - I'm on a bit of a downer at the moment.
Sick to death of politics - need something to
brighten up my day. Maybe I'll go see the latest
"Harry Potter," - it might give me that out of this
world feeling that I need at the moment - or I
might see the sequel (musical) to the Phantom of
the Opera (Love Never Dies).

In the meantime - stay well - and keep smiling,
Smile and the world smiles with you, cry and they
pay to watch (or words to that effect).

Take care,
