The ABC is a platform for right wing neo-conservative think tanks to deliver their spin. Absolutely nothing left wing or indeed socialist coming from Q and A either.Quote:

I actually kind of agree with Dunst here. The ABC has definitely become more convervative/trashy/sensationalist in the past couple of years, and especially since that stupid backlash over the refugee thingy. One thing that particularly stands in mind is looking at the headlines of the news stories some times last year, 8/10 of them were about your terry wrists and islamic state, all with a kind of "omg muzlimz!" slant to them.
The Guardian Australia is defs where the lefties are at these days, and all power to them :cool: But I completely disagree with plague saying "they're as both as bad as each other". I mean come on, maybe there are subtle biases in other news reporting, but nothing is as blatantly defiant of journalistic integrity and objectivity as those News Limited rags. Shit is cancer imo.
Also Q&A is a ****ing rubbish show.
Abc chasing ratings.
'Subtle biases'?Quote:

So Turnbull gets the same treatment as Abbott and Hockey from ABC?
So Christine Foster gets the same ridicule as Clover Moore from News ltd?
Does the current NCC council get the same scrutiny as the previous Lord Mayor (even pre brown bag)?
Don't be silly.
They are all shitcunce.
Let's not FOrget other ABC piles of shit like "The Drum" and "Insiders".
These shows are without doubt right wing neo-conservative driven garbage. From the content to the nunces parading as experts on their panels.
So a few of my mates and I have started a gambling pool on which of our Facebook friends will change their profile picture back from that rainbow filter.
love gambling.
its good to see your friends uniting in support of the Color Run
I've got nothing but love and respect for the organisers of the colour run.Quote:

People are suckers.
yeah, c'mon, plague. i know you're not partial to sitting on the fence but you can't possibly say that the abc is as bad as news ltd.
I dunno. Are there levels of shitcunceness*?Quote:

News ltd does too.
So does Fairfax.
Who does it better or worse doesn't matter, they are in the same game doing the same things.
They are all the same to me.
*i know that may not be a real word but it's pretty sweet so I'm keeping it.
Same dog different leg action as far as ABC, Fairfax, and News Limited are concerned.Quote:

Come election time every single newsrag and TV station will be spruiking the same shit fed to them by the usual conservative think tanks each heavilly sponsored by the top end of town.

Yep, the ABC would definitely do this.
not confident enough to enter into an argument about politics/the media with an old guy tbh
to be fair i dare say plague would be arguing the other way had miltiamon been an ardent liberal and was bashing the ABC
loves an argument
but what about that great article The Australian did about that reformed jihadist
what was that bloke's name again?
