So in other words, it doesn't exist anymore .....they need to update policies .....mokery

That’s reporting news, not political advertising though.

Anyone who doesn’t vote for Labor today is a bum.

I’m not voting Labor. Because they are as broken as the LIBS. However, I will preference them.

Yes they do, but as jenny has pointed out, the examples you provided are not political advertising.

Any noise is advertising Jenny ......it's the approach used by Clive Palmer ...just bombard the brand everywhere, some fool will recall the party name and vote for him

The point is, they could always report about it. It’s political advertising that was in blackout the day before.

Strange as it seems, the passing of Bob Hawke will attract a sympathy Labor vote, via association .......nothing the Libs could do the last 2 days but compliment him & by association the Labor Party

You need to get a full understanding of what Advertising is

Election Day!

My booth is set up!

Be nice in here today!!

Vote Greens!

Hippy

 

[brucetiki]

My booth is boring - the Liberals haven’t even shown up!

Also, saw a social media post a UAP volunteer rocked up to a booth in a taxi and then did a runner. A local councillor that witnessed it paid the cabbie.

Who says they're "trying to gain votes off the inappropriate memory of BOB"? I certainly haven't seen any evidence of this.

I've seen plenty of people honouring the greatest ever Labor PM, albeit one who was flawed in many ways as you have noted. Nowhere have I seen attempts to weaonise this, attempting to parlay people's sympathies into votes. That some people will be swayed by emotion is possible, but the ALP have done nothing to encourage this.

The only thing that I thought was a bit distasteful was Shorten letting everyone know that Bob had 2 wishes, to see his step son get married and to see Labor win this election. I know it’s true, but it’s a complete given and didn’t need to be said.

 

[1970crow]

You vote for palmer it’s worth money to him. Don’t vote for palmer.

Don’t tell me how to vote and the $3 reimbursement isn’t really too meaningful given he’s blown tens of millions of dollars.

Tough battle for last place in the Senate, but GAP won the battle. Having Mark Aldridge as a candidate sums them up perfectly.

Second last for mine after FACNP, there's been such a proliferation of very right wing/far right parties that it's a battle in itself to decide who gets the slightly better preference.

Hence where the term ‘**** Shorten’ came from. Lots of man boob action under that shirt.

Cory Bernardi was at my booth, man of the people.

You need to get a full understanding of what Advertising is

No... you do. Reporting of the news is reporting of the news. Paid advertising is paid advertising. The latter is banned, the former never has been and (hopefully) never will be. The examples you provided were news, not advertising.

Clueless .....given you're not in that arena ....try commenting on something you have some professional experience in

The ABC reporting on the election is not, and never has been, regarded as advertising.

The ABC has been head of the Labor Campaign .....of course they're advertising ....the rules are archaic and set B4 Social Media

We get all our news off social media these days in News grabs

What utter garbage. Just because they haven't been in the LNP's pocket, unlike Rupert's Revolting Rags, doesn't mean that they've been anything other than neutral.

I understand that you're arguing the philosophy that "any publicity is good publicity", and trying to project that as advertising. In this case, you're completely wrong. It's an ABC news report. It's news. Not advertising.
