Foxy, quite right, but you know well enough that the actual truth is too much for some of the delicate posters we have to deal with : )

OTB, "That is some Kangaroo Court you run to hold a man responsible for a banner held up behind him. He is one of those despised 'white' men, so as a rad fembot of the previous Millenium you would want to be wearing his balls as earrings as well?"

Sure, maybe good Ol' Tones has really bad eyesight ?
And no, I prefer to hang larger adornments from my ears than those you mention.....

P,

Not a chance. The first two examples were from the same thread, saying exactly the same thing. The third was repeat after your porkie.

Not even close to "You're the fellow who keeps on telling me that 90% of the people think this - and 90% of the people think that....and by chance they all seem to hold exactly the same views as Shadow Minister!"

Susie and Foxy,

You are always going to cop it on here from the woman hating white supremacists OTB.

To tell a female poster that she "would want to be wearing his (Tony Abbott's) balls as earrings". Is personally insulting to the female poster, and disgusting behavior which should draw censure from the forum moderator, but considering past experience this particular fellow seems to live a charmed life on the forum.

doog, AIUI it's proposed to shift it to a different production unit, not a different channel.

I get it, Abbott is trying to find a loophole so he can save face. i would stall the enquiry until xmas and beyond, it's not necessary to have Abbott's bandits on the show., they can defend themselves by other means.

doog,

You are mixed up, the ABC has already admitted fault.

Read this,

"The ABC board has moved against Q&A executive producer Peter McEvoy, issuing him a formal warning under the misconduct provisions of the ABC’s industrial agreement for having Zaky Mallah on the live program."

and this,

There is also the ABC's own review to be conducted but it has been compromised by foolish comments by Ray Martin.

The ABC Board and the PM are cooperating to ensure that the Q&A programs can continue, with the necessary guidance and management. That is the main task.
