One Nation Smash ABC...

One Nation wins ABC changes in media reform deal


Pauline Hanson's One Nation party has given the government's media reforms "conditional support" in exchange for a $12 million boost to community radio funding and changes to the ABC, including a greater focus on regional areas, more financial transparency and increasing its political impartiality.

The government will also conduct an inquiry into the ABC's competitive neutrality - whether it is using taxpayer funding to undermine commercial players - and to "legislate a requirement for the ABC to be 'fair' and 'balanced'", according to a post on One Nation's Facebook's page on Tuesday.

One Nation's deal came just hours after the Greens have signalled they might be willing to negotiate on media reform in return for greater funding for the public broadcasters.

Greens leader Richard Di Natale told reporters in Canberra that the cross-bench party was willing to potentially drop its opposition to the proposed end of the so-called "two-out-of-three" rule that prevents media companies owning radio, television and print in a single city.

The broadcasting reform bill is on the Senate's agenda for Tuesday and scheduled for debate just before Question Time at 2pm. The bill needs 39 votes in favour to pass. The Coalition has 30 votes in the Senate while One Nation controls four votes.  Independents Derryn Hinch and David Leyonhelm have already indicated their support for the media reform bill, which means the government still needs three votes. These could potentially come from the Nick Xenophon Team.

But if the Greens vote with the government in favour of the media reforms it will pass.

"It's fair to say that we are discussing an increase in the funding for ABC and SBS and that is a starting point for any support to get rid of two-out-of-three."

Senator Di Natale said the Greens were "petrified" the government might do a deal with One Nation on media reform.  Roll Eyes

"If the government want to secure our support they need to invest more in the ABC and SBS... we need to protect the ABC, particularly their charter, and [ensure it has] the funding to do what they do so well," he said.

The Green's media spokeswoman, Senator Sarah Hanson-Young, said she had met with industry representatives in recent weeks, but found the attitude from commercial media companies, particularly broadcasters "feels like it is just take, take, take".  Roll Eyes

"What is on the table currently with the government is a deal with One Nation, who have never hidden their distaste and hatred for the ABC," she said, adding the Green's support for the public broadcasters was "rock solid".



the Greens are losing relevancy more and more... if they dont get it together by next election they'll be obliterated...

Great stuff Pauline. Snatch the ABC from the claws of those inner city elites. It's OUR national broadcaster.

We should privatise the ABC and SBS, the billion dollars a year could be better spent elsewhere.

Give country people better internet connections they don't need leftist propaganda.

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

Even considering this is the One Nation board, how the fvvck did FD think The Moronic would be a suitable mod?

The clown did not even ask me, who used to sell fricking stills, a question about using stills

that's him, our esteemed leader,

the man who asks a thousand questions (usually the same one over and over and over and over and over and over a thousand times) all whilst avoiding answering any himself, the islamapohobe who's not really an islamaphobe, but a defender of womens right (muslim women of course, other women is anyones' guess, he's never mentioned them). The fighter for free speech, all whilst limiting free speech.

Watching ABC today, same old same old political bias....  and after Hanson's stunt boy did she cop it.
Not one so called journalist mentioned that the burka is not religious dress.
But they interviewed Hinch and Xenophon and and kept repeating their ignorance.
