Society/Culture Should we close down the ABC and SBS ?

[ShanDog]

Anyone know what happened to all of last nights posts from about 6Pm onwards per chance?.....ShanDog?

Russians....

The ABC does not have presenters or paid actors call greens candidates or black people the C word.

FYI, Chief's swear filter seems to find 'pudendum' to be a suitable substitute for "the C word". It is unlike you to be so coy. You must admit that the ABC's use of "the C word", as you put it, certainly livens up the 7 PM bulletin. Obviously, they have no concern that kids like you might expand their vocabulary, and become better informed at the same time. It is also unlike Dolt to be so coy on this matter. After all, it's the word he hears most about himself.

This guy has to be one of BF's greatest trolls, I tip my hat to you sir.

He's a laughing stock and has absolutely no idea. It's great.

True, but in the weather forecast? Im not a prude, but it was unprofessional.

"Your" taxes paid for a lot of things you don't like today.

 

[TheSierBear]

Nope, never!
No pay TV for me either, dropped it after they introduced ads.
Pay to watch ads? No thanks.

Yeah the adds on fox really shits me.

 

[Procrastinator35]

Yeah the adds on fox really shits me.

That was initially it's big selling point.....Zero ads for $50 per month for the standard package plus sports.....Prices have remained fairly constant, but the slow bracket-creep of more & more ads has completely saturated the product.....as you knew it would.

Murdoch seems to be in love with the insurance industry, if the preponderance of them on his s**t-ful network is any gauge whatsoever.....Don't tell most people that death & funeral insurance are pretty well standard in their super-packages anyway....Which makes what most of these usurers are selling, actually redundant for the majority of working folks.....It's a scream-fest.

Murdoch - like all mega usurers around the world - treats his customers with utter contempt & disdain.

Yes. Shut them down.

Are you suggesting the private sector would do better in providing forums to study these topics?

 

[Colin Northcott]

How much did this segment cost you exactly?

Part of the $1.1 billion funding received by the ABC.

These topics shouldn't be studied at all.

No, how much did it cost you?

 

[geelong_crazy26]

I am not going to watch the ABC today, but I have no doubt along with the rest of the far left, the 10% who support the greens they will begin their attack on ANZAC day.

To allay your concerns, I watched it over my morning coffee and it was thoughtful and respectful coverage.

 

[geelong_crazy26]

It would of cost him more than the $5 the far left refuse to pay to see a doctor.

People who vote greens think its wrong for them to pay $5 to see a doctor but its fine for others to pay for their TV viewing.

I thought you would have had the personal cost to you calculated down to the last cent.

What a disappointment you are.

It cost me the same as it cost you.

If the whole biased piece of s**t of an organisation was shut down it would cost us nothing.

Someone's a bit upset that discussion on his GP co-payment thread has stalled.

But, to address your false equivalence, I pay for both my GP visits and the ABC - the former via the Medicare Levy, the latter via my taxes.

You just want to slug good people more to see the doctor. Poor form.

Poor you, having to contribute to such a quality organization.

Since you pay for it why do you need other peoples money ? you can pay for the ABC viewing via a subscription

Truth is most ABC green viewers pay no net tax at all.
