Dear Belly,

Thanks for that.

Totally agree.

Belly,

All your venom aimed at sky news is pretty much the way conservatives feel about the ABC which on the taxpayer's dollar churns out left whinge propaganda by stacking programs such as Q&A with left whingers, focusing on stories that boost labor / greens and ignoring stories that put labor /greens in a poor light.

Foxy,

I have yet to see a Q&A program with equal or more conservatives than left whingers, and nearly all that I have seen are have only one token conservative or none at all.

As for the 12c/day BS, that is assuming that every person from new born babies to rest home retirees is paying this. Looking at working adults that actually pay net tax then the figure is closer to 50c/day, which is paid by people that generally don't watch the program.

SM,

You can object all you like - however most Australians
approve of our National Broadcaster and believe in
fully supporting it.

Did you by any chance go and hear Nigel Farage, and the
other "personalities" speak at the Conservative Conference in
Sydney? "Nice" array of speakers - you'd have to
agree - Mr Abbott must have been in his element. Mark
Latham next to Rowan Dean?

SM,

I forgot to add the following:

Foxy,

These are the same left whinge pollsters that assured us of a Labor victory?

The reality is that the proof of the pudding is in the eating, and a true poll is where consumers of news are prepared to place their hard earned cash. In this regard Newscorp is a hands down winner.

That journalists can both have integrity and be biased is common knowledge, as is that the journalists at the ABC are almost exclusively left leaning.

SM,

We shall have to agree to disagree on this one.

Arguing about it is pointless when we are so far apart
in our views.

Enjoy your day.
