Cutting Funding to the ABC is good economics.

Mitch Fifield, committed to keeping the ABC on track

We are greatly relieved by the Treasurers decision to cut funding to the ABC. For too long this leftist anarcho syndicalist collective has held the Australian government to ransom. It had to stop.

By cutting the national broadcaster we can ensure only good news stories get out. That makes the population happy and that’s good for the economy. The ABC just doesn’t get it. That’s why the Herald Sun is Australia’s, best selling newspaper. It only reports on important issues that real Australians care about like footy, and murderers, and Dole Bludgers and how bad un-Australians, (Muslims) are.

Fran Kelly and Brian Cox. The pommy astrophysicist reckons the earth isn’t flat. What a wanker!

For several years now they, (the ABC) have employed the strategy of balanced unbiased reportage. Their journalists are quite often women. And we have it on good authority that Fran Kelly, the host of the morning programe on ABC’s Radio national may bat for the other team. In light of the ball tampering scandal, this is ‘Un-Australian’.

We have been objectively trawling the reportage from the national broadcaster and to be quite upfront about it the whole thing is a disgrace.

Ratbag. Questions noble, heroic, sacred, eternal spirit of Anzac.

For starters, they allow people of non anglo origin to ring up on talkback and have an opinion. Then there’s questioning on planning decisions by the big end of town that impoverish locals for the benefit of a few greedy developers. They report this stuff and it discredits the development industry. And in doing so discredits people who make this country great Like Robert Doyle who wanted (quite rightly) to tear down the stodgy old Queen Victoria market and turn it into an up to date multi level shopping mecca. With inground and multi-level parking so you’ll never have to ride or walk there, and the rest of site devoted wholly to residential high rise development. And the proceeds will be ploughed back into the coffers of the Melbourne City Council so that more wealthy developers have a say in how our city shall be more like Singapore and Shenzen where they don’t have ugly old buildings and it looks like anywhere else.

But more importantly we’re sick to death of the inferences passed off as journalism.

For a start allowing a muslim woman to question the dignity of Anzac. That was just way out of line, and then we’ve been told that ABC comedy, (which is a bit of an oxymoron) had a comedy sketch in which both the punchline and the sketch itself were hollow, self-serving and predictable.

Pauline. Very glad that the ABC will focus on REAL issues!!

On other important things it was the ABC which always gives time to people festering in detention centres and they just don’t seem to know that the majority don’t care.

Still, we are happy about one thing the ABC did, and that was constructing the reasons behind the intervention. Good on Tony Jones. He gave us all a bit of fun just to see how justified we were in incarcerating all those indigenous Australians. And in doing so made us all feel just that more superior and SAFE.

Tony Jones. Got. the intervention going. Goodonya TONE!!

And that was before the cuts kicked in.
