"No commercial broadcaster would invest in Australian
content to the extent that the ABC and SBS do, simply
because it is too expensive." Foxy,
They're not doing a very good job for the funding they get ! Give the same amount to any of the others & you'll see a tonne less bias.

Dear mhaze,

You really do slop around in the most unsavory sites don't you. The Daily Mirror?

It wasn't a grovelling apology at all, pretty bog standard. And why is the colour of the presenter's skin important enough to headline?

TO be clear the ABC did not accuse her of being racist, they had asked her to comment on a press release from a local aboriginal group well over a year ago. Under legal pressure the group retracted those statements which then left the ABC exposed.

None of it seemed to have been played out in court but the ABC lawyers have chosen not to contest it given the retraction of the original party. Saving us all a buck it seems.

There only tolererable thing on the ABC now is 'Silent Witness'. As for Australian content, well that seems to be all nonsense with a view to jamming as many different races and colours into the room at once. Multicultural muck totally lacking in talent and interest. Even in the lightest ABC "entertainment", we are subjected to Leftist politics and PC rubbish - all the things 80% of Australians loathe, but have to pay $120 per household per year to keep Leftist activists in work, if the garbage job they do could be dignified with the description 'work'.

Dear Hasbeen,

Have you ever thought your use of the ABC offerings are a reflection of you increasing age and growing curmudgeonly demeanor?

"You really do slop around in the most unsavory sites don't you. The Daily Mirror?"

Well I would have linked to the story on the ABC page but, surprisingly, they didn't cover it....can't imagine why!

Perhaps this might explain why:
