as I too don't find the ABC programming leaning any way at all.
Suseonline,
from my Mac dictionary. leaning
noun
his early leanings were towards cooking and he went off to become a chef: inclination, tendency, bent, proclivity, propensity, penchant, predisposition, predilection, proneness, partiality, preference, disposition, orientation, bias, attraction, liking, fancy, fondness, taste; weakness, hankering, appetite, thirst.
That perfectly sums up the ABC's biased culture.

Suse, you ask What channels do (they) watch? From the posts of the right wingers, I think they get their intellectual stimulation by watching Big Brother on channel 9, and their political opinion is formulated by reading (assuming they can read) Murdoch's gutter press and Micky Mouse comics.

Every time a conservative government cuts the ABC folk who are fixed to one of the two teams that are the coalition say no.
It is two teams from within the right targeting Aunty.
The true if it sounds nasty I again say *true*
extreme right, who have a home in the coalition.
And those who draw the line at opinions other than their own.
I have every confidence in todays youth, they at some future time will have made the inter nett so good no one will be able to harness news reporting.

>>Sorry Shaggy, but if Suse finds it middle of the road, it is obviously so far left, it is way off the road, & out into the paddock.<<

Well I'm stumped. Can one of you wise sages who can see the bias that lesser men cannot tell me how the left-wing bias is exhibited in the following shows?

Black Books
The IT Crowd
Derek
Would I Lie To You
QI
Tractor Monkeys
Dr. Brian Cox's latest science doco.
Michael Mosley's latest medical doco.
Sir David Attenborough's latest nature doco.
Mock The Week
Woodley

It just seems to me that a lot of the ABC's programming is distinctly non-political and of much better quality than the crap on the commercial channels. Plus you get the added bonus of not having %#$#@ ads in the middle of your show. I don't mind ads before and after shows but they annoy me when they interrupt things.

Cheers,

Tony

Tony, our resident right wing nuts don't know any of those shows because they don't watch the ABC...apparently!

Then how do they know it has a left-wing bias? Are they psychic?

Cheers,

Tony
