All right, stop the bleeding heart stuff, next you’ll have us all singing “Kumba Ya”.
Why are you complaing about alleged ABC bias, didn’t the Murdoch Press attack the Labor Government ceaselessly?
The Murdoch Press is allowed to criticise the Rudd/Gillard/Rudd Government because it was truly incompetent – the “worst ever”.
How do we know this?
Well, the Murdoch Press told us.
Isn’t this showing bias?
No, it’s just stating the facts!
Isn’t “worst” an opinion?
Well, the Murdoch Press is privately owned, why shouldn’t it be allowed to express an opinion – are you trying to stifle free speech?
No, but on the ABC last week…
The ABC! It’s left wing bias has to be stopped.
Didn’t you just say that the media should be allowed to express an opinion?
The privately owned media, the ABC is taxpayer funded – it shouldn’t be biased
Yeah, but what’s the evidence of bias?
Their presenters often disagree with the Murdoch view. They never have a right wing perspective, as Josh Frydenberg said on ABC radio last week, backing up the point Piers Akerman made on ”The Insiders” a few weeks ago.
Aren’t they a right wing perspective on the ABC?
Yeah, but they’re the exception.
Well, there’s a weekly show on ABC radio where a member of the IPA debates a more left-wing person on the events of the week.
Why couldn’t the IPA person debate without another leftie being there?? And where’s the right wing equivalent of Philip Adams on the ABC?
Philip Adams, the millionaire who writes for The Australian? Is he the most extreme example of the left on the ABC?
That just shows that the Murdoch Press give a variety of views! The ABC needs to sold.
