The right set up multiple studies to prove that. They pulled all the data to find this fact. The result in multiple occasions was that the ABC leans slightly to the right.

Needless to say that they were disappointed with the result they got, they don't like the truth.

Right wing compared to Chairman Mao  ;D

ABC lauds itself on being non biased but few know how that's actually measured.

They audit the amount of air time and coverage given to each party roughly as a percentage of their vote. When a Govt minister gets an interview, the shadow minister is invited on to comment.

What is not measurable is the tone they take with journalists, the subtle and often NOT subtle spin they put on an issue and of course what they choose to cover.

Dontcha love the way Leftists think they are so inclusive?

A referendum is not supposed to be a win or lose choice. Its is supposed to gauge how the public view a subject, and the ABC should not try to sway viewers. That's propaganda. In the quoted ABC email, we see how OUR ABC works. Sky News has nothing to do with it.

Nope, it is a win or lose choice.

Referenda are legally binding on the implementation
of government legislation.    You're thinking of
a plebiscite (public viewpoint). The government does
not have to act on the result of a plebiscite, and a
plebiscite is not defined in the Australian Constitution,
the Electoral Act, or the Referendum Act.

From what I've seen, the ABC cops just as much
flak from the Right and the Left.  It seems to depend
more on the presenter and his or her personal
interpretation of a political issue.

Perhaps I should have made myself clearer. A referendum is not about who are the good guys and the bad guys decided by a majority, but that is how the ABC is portraying it. I can do that, but I am not preaching like the ABC while claiming to be free of bias. And, the presenters answer to the editorial staff.

It is not for the ABC to coach its staff on how to 'handle' difficult questions about the Wheeze to Parliament.

As has been noted previously, a referendum is not about winning or losing but about seeing if a change to the Constitution is desired by the majority of the people.  However in this 'Voice' referendum the government and most of the media is insinuating that those who vote against this change are racists, and it seems that the AEC is trying to stack the deck as well, with its ticks and crosses statement.   

Very disturbing.

There is a big lie being told to the Public by the government and the ABC. It is that the Constitutional amendment is about giving Aboriginals a fairer say in parliament. Sounds reasonable, except that is not what you will be asked on voting day. You will be asked to give parliament the permenant right to give the voice any powers it chooses. I repeat, ANY POWERS. If an LNP government proposed such a right, the Leftists on this forum would go ape-sh1t.

A pertinent point.

Even more pertinent is how long is this legislative string:

Voice may make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples



Anyone can make such representations now. You can do it through your parliamentarian or directly by making a submission to parliament, writing to a department or statutory body.


The Parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws with respect to matters relating to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice, including its composition, functions, powers and procedures.


Parliament can do that already.


So what is new?

The existence of a Constitutionally enshrined Aboriginal body that is separate from the rest of the Australian body politic. That is the ONLY point of this referendum. From that separateness enshrined in the constitution flows treaty and PERMANENT  separation of Aborigines from the Commonwealth.

Shock, horror! ABC pro-Coalition: study

Newspapers are left wing, television is right wing, and the media as a whole tends to favour the Coalition.

And surprisingly, according to researchers from the Australian National University, the ABC Television news is the most pro-Coalition of them all.


[quote]Former Liberal prime minister John Howard railed against the alleged left-wing bias of the ABC, but the researchers found Aunty was more likely to favour his side.


Researchers pored over news stories from 1996 to 2007 to establish if the media was biased.

The results, released today, point to the media being generally middle-of-the-road, with the Coalition tending to win out.

Researchers found journalists were "a centrist bunch". The exception was ABC TV news, which "had a significant slant towards the Coalition".[/quote]

[Verse 1]
Every night when I crawl home
I settle down to prime-time limbo
When all the boys are gathered around
Shoutin' "Ita's on T.V."

[Verse 2]
And though the roaches are thick on the ground
Somebody goes to close our window
Keep the noise of the city down
Get a dose of integrity

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Every week, in every home
She's got wholesome news for the family

[Chorus 1]
I believe, I believe in what she says, yes I do
I believe, I believe, at the end of the day
Her magazine will get me through

[Verse 3]
Ita's tongue never touches her lips
She could always be my godmother
And though the desktop hides her hips
My imagination's strong

[Verse 4]
She's the sweetest thing I've ever seen
I'd like to take her out to dinner
But when I think about the places I've been
Probably hold my fork all wrong

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Every day and every night
She's the only one we can depend upon

[Chorus 1]
I believe, I believe in what she says, yes I do
I believe, I believe at the end of the day
Her magazine will get me through

[Pre-Chorus 3]
To every housewife through the land
There is no-one else they can depend upon

[Chorus 2]
How could I not believe what Ita tells me to?

[Instrumental Break]
2:12 - 2:46

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Every day and every night
She's the only one we can depend upon
[Chorus 2]
How could I not believe what Ita tells me to?
Well, how could I not believe what Ita tells me to?

[Chorus 2]
How could I not believe what Ita tells me to?
How could I not believe what Ita tells me to?

Yes it's true

Which of course has nothing to do with what I posted. And it is under Labor that the ABC is cutting back services to WA, after Labor increased payments.. Cutting back services to WA means they can increase the salaries of those over east.

Labor has been in Power more than 12 months. ::)

The ABC airs some great shows, but unfortunately, just as the commercial channels use programming to bait consumers, the ABC uses its programming as bait for Leftist indoctrination.

Commercial TV has some rather conservative programmes, but they still have to sell product. If the ABC was truely unbiased, it would get some conservative commentators. Fat chance.

There is a big lie being told to the Public by the government and the ABC. It is that the Constitutional amendment is about giving Aboriginals a fairer say in parliament. Sounds reasonable, except that is not what you will be asked on voting day. You will be asked to give parliament the permenant right to give the voice any powers it chooses. I repeat, ANY POWERS. If an LNP government proposed such a right, the Leftists on this forum would go ape-sh1t.



You know any government can already up a body with all the powers it wants,  anytime it likes, right?


Such a body could be dissolved. Not so with the Voice, which would be Constitutional. But you knew that already. So why defend the Labor Party's and the ABC's lie? Its conformation bias, isn't it.


The set up of a body is up to the govt of the day. Set up a 20 person committe in Canberra or a one man band in an office in the middle of the Simpson with nothing but carrier pigeon and the conditions of the constitution will still be met. You can stop being scared, the voice is irrelevant other than it might make a few people happy.

Sounds reasonable, except that is not what you will be asked on voting day. You will be asked to give parliament the permenant right to give the voice any powers it chooses. I repeat, ANY POWERS. If an LNP government proposed such a right, the Leftists on this forum would go ape-sh1t.



You know any government can already up a body with all the powers it wants,  anytime it likes, right?


Such a body could be dissolved. Not so with the Voice, which would be Constitutional. But you knew that already. So why defend the Labor Party's and the ABC's lie? Its conformation bias, isn't it.


The set up of a body is up to the govt of the day. Set up a 20 person committe in Canberra or a one man band in an office in the middle of the Simpson with nothing but carrier pigeon and the conditions of the constitution will still be met. You can stop being scared, the voice is irrelevant other than it might make a few people happy.



Why bother with putting it in the Constitutuon then?

Why not just legislate it?



Makes some people happy. 

The Constitution is not some "make some Abos happy" document, thicko. It is not there to cater to the emotions of some Abos.



Why not? If it can makes supporters of the King happy,  why not Aborigines?


It is not about making the supporters of the king happy, either, moronic bozo.


Until you start crying because someone suggests they remove the crown from the constitution because it's irrelevant.

What Aboriginal language are you translating from, thich-as?

Have you ever considered making sense?


Thats the way sore end, run away ... again ;D ;D ;D


FMD! Five Foot Frodo must be stoned. He’s logged off and run away whilst Frank is still online. 😂🤣😆

ABC attack against Canberra!
In a surprise dawn raid, the ABC hit-squad in its Breakfast Unit has destroyed the Qantas policy of Socialist Albanese.  Backed by the Qatar Regime of Conservative Command of the skies, Lisa Millar united with Alan Fels and left Qantas wreckage littered over half of Australia.

Meta executives said they had suspended their partnership with RMIT FactLab, “effective ­immediately”, after receiving complaints about bias and unfairness relating to the voice to parliament referendum.

“In light of these allegations and the upcoming vote on the voice referendum, we are suspending RMIT as a partner in our fact checking program, effective immediately.”

RMIT FactLab is under much-needed scrutiny for its overreach as a fact-check gatekeeper in important community debate. Under pressure for its repeated interventions into the voice to parliament referendum debate, RMIT FactLab has been caught out quietly deleting earlier determinations and acting without the necessary approvals.

The group is now facing legal action after it was shown to be giving fact-check decisions for Facebook without a current International Fact-Checking Network certification. Sky News Australia is demanding the retraction of false fact-checking verdicts on the TV channel’s online content and reimbursement for lost revenue. Lawyers for Sky News have listed at least five fact checks published since December last year – four relating to voice referendum content – that claim Sky News’ content is false. The fact checks were issued after RMIT’s IFCN certification had expired on December 2 last year. To issue fact-checking verdicts, RMIT FactLab must hold a valid IFCN certification as part of its agreement with social media giant and Facebook owner Meta. Meta has suspended its partnership with RMIT FactLab because of the lapsed IFCN certification status and concerns of bias in relation to fact checks done on voice debate content.

Concerns about the RMIT unit are heightened by the social media posts of some its fact checkers that display a clear bias on political and social issues on which the fact-check unit is making public declarations. In one post, Liberal leader Peter Dutton was called a “fearmongering racist”. The group has silently deleted a fact check that claimed it was false to question a statistic that alleged 83 per cent of Indigenous Australians supported the voice.

By operating a fact-check unit, RMIT has set itself up for greater scrutiny. Fact-check results are being presented as more than an option. They are a commercial arrangement that carries greater responsibility. The rise of media policing by bureaucratic and for-profit academic organisations is a trend that must be scrutinised closely. Someone must watch the watcher.

I have given up on the public broadcaster. Its coverage of the most serious issues facing the country and the world has become superficial and juvenile.
...
There is no equivalent of Lateline in its heyday at the ABC today, no first-rate intelligent and challenging journalism where viewers come away entertained, challenged and better informed. Instead, programs such as The Drum offer a glib line-up of nothingness.

The pursuit of mind-numbing identity politics has turned Aunty into a taxpayer-funded Mickey Mouse media outfit. They may have been white men but the likes of Mark Colvin, Andrew Olle and Tony Eastley sure knew their craft. Would 23-year-old versions of these men get a gig at the ABC today? One of them might sneak in if they were gay or ticked some other diversity box.

It is well known that the ABC is very sensitive to LGBTQI+ causes. How then to explain this exchange between Patricia Karvelas and Mansour Shouman which took place on Radio National Breakfast on 10 November? Let’s go to the transcript.

Patricia Karvelas: You left Canada two years ago to live in Gaza. Just explain why you and your family decided to move back to Gaza.

Mansour Shouman: Unfortunately, the education system in Canada got overwhelmed with leftist agenda, LGBTQ propaganda. We couldn’t raise our children by the social norms and the religious values that we believe in They’re forcing their agenda, certain agenda, on the families – on the children…

Patricia Karvelas: That’s really interesting.

Just imagine what would have been Ms Karvelas’ reaction if a Christian man had said that he left a nation because it was forcing an LGBTQ agenda on “the families, the children”. Yet she said nothing in response to this claim – apart from commenting “That’s really interesting”. Interesting indeed.

Pro-Palestine activists Bbwian and Gweggy target ABC Perth office amid Antoinette Lattouf sacking


The ABC Radio’s office in Perth has been the target of vandalism by pro-Palestinian supporters, in response to the national broadcaster’s decision to fire Antoinette Lattouf earlier this week.

Ms Lattouf was meant to be a fill-in host for one of the network’s most coveted radio spots on ABC Sydney, but was axed after three shows for her anti-Israel social media posts.

A slew of complaints about Ms Lattouf’s content from the Jewish community had reached ABC chairwoman Ita Buttrose.

Lattouf has repeatedly refuted the legitimacy of the “gas the Jews” footage from Sydney’s Opera House and posted numerous video on her social media accounts including X, formerly Twitter, Instagram and TikTok about this. She has also accused Israeli forces of committing rape.

It was reported on Friday she had lodged a Fair Work application claiming she was unlawfully terminated from her employment.

In the video obtained by The Australian, its message calls out the ABC’s actions as “censorship” and that it’s “an affront to the very idea of journalistic integrity”.


“Direct action was taken against the ABC Radio office in Boorloo/Perth to protest [the] unjust firing of Antoinette Lattouf over her factual reporting of the Israeli genocide against the people of Palestine.”

“This act of censorship by the ABC management is an affront to the very idea of journalistic integrity. While the ABC cower in the face of external pressure, 100 journalists have been killed while reporting on the genocide being committed by the state of Israel.”

In the video, an individual covered in a white scarf covers over the ABC Radio logo and proceeds to graffiti the words ‘Boycott’, ‘Justice for Antoinette’ and ‘Free Palestine’.

The Australian reached out to WA police, who told the publication that no one has reported the incident yet.


Tsk, tsk  ::) ::) ::)
