To some degree, governments and powerful lobbies
can influence any channel and most likely do.
Sky News comes to mind. I've watched many news
channels extensively and can't really say that
one is less credible than any of the others.

In a world that has the Fox network, trying to paint AJ as not believable is very very funny

even if the tv makers were undercover, the people speaking were not forced to say anything they did not want to say. is anyone concerned about the old man, i dont know his name, he talked a very crazy kind of talk. they said he is trying for parliament is that true. will people vote for him after he said those things about wanting lots of guns for himself.

Wahine,

The old man, James Ashby, is a nut but not a nutter and it doesn't really matter how many guns he owns, he's not likely to run amuck.

If you are concerned about guns then worry about all the criminals who have illegal firearms, one of them might be sitting next to you on a bus or train.

The 'old man' is not James Ashby who is a young man. The old man, who only looks old to a child, goes by the name of Dickson, or something like that.

The younger one is James Ashby. Ashby should have been turfed long ago.
He is accident prone. They both said things that they knew could never
be made to happen. They were just blowing bull dust up the Americans.
They were stupid because the Americans would be straight onto their
mates in Australia who would put them in the picture.

What is intriguing is the use of an "ex ABC" journalist by AlJ in a
three to four year project. I would love to be an auditor at the ABC.
It has a smell about it Le Carre would be proud of.
Would One Nation's policy on Islam be enough for Al Jazera to devote
so much money to four years grooming plus all the expense of this trip
to America, accommodation etc etc. Just to embarrass One Nation ?
I bet you could spend all day on the street in Qwait asking people
about One Nation and no one would know what you were talking about.
You would find they have no interest in Austria !

After all this dies down don't be surprised if the snoop is back at the ABC.
I also wonder if Getup is behind it. The Labour Party has that sort
of money.
Hmmmm Oh another conspiracy theory ?
