Up to now abc didn't acknowledge the October masquerade

I used to enjoy watching the ABC. Now I can’t bear it. It is very biased and needs to be shut down

The problem is the Israeli government does nothing substantially wrong, but have been successfully leading a war of survival against Iranian and their proxies axis of evil. So the problem is that ABC and SBS viciously lie in their reporting, take the enemy sides in the conflict and brainwash with the propaganda gullible Australian public

It started in October 2023. ABC subtly started referring to the Israel war as as the Israeli/Gaza war whereas most other news sources around world referred to it as the Israel/Hamas war. In other words the ABC bias suggested it was a county to country war rather than a country vs terrorist war. The rot set in.

The Commission is more willing to TRY to regulate AMERICAN COMPANIES than they are to rein in their own public broadcasters. Unreal— and despicable.

Pauline was right. Shutdown the SBS, make the ABC subscription only.

October 7th was the last straw for me to stop watching ABC news or SBS. I noticed before that they both abandoned good journalism. More funding is an absolutely nauseating idea. Also both those far left propaganda broadcasters do not allow comments!

Ms. Wicks (SBS) actually had the audacity to say “as hate rises like antisemitism and Islamophobia…” DISGUSTING. Shows she doesn’t get it because there is no such thing as Islamophobia (a Muslim Brotherhood term, created to shut down criticism of Islamic ideology in the West). Fear of ideology that has provoked terrorism in OVER 70 countries and over 50,000 times since 9/11 (and this is just the countries that record it, most Muslim countries do not record “Islamic terrorism” for obvious reasons) is REASONABLE. And Jews aren’t committing it crimes against Muslims so it is IRRELEVANT. If anything is an irrational fear it is of Jews and Israel.

No one seems to realise that all reports TO journalists comes from Hummus’ sources!!! No journalist is actually allowed into Gaza!!!
And Israel has a safe corridor since the war began, that Palestinians can flee to Israel for safety!!!

Defund the ABC and SBS and make them pay their own way.

The MSM here in the USA is the same.

Actually, the starving babies claim had been corrected three hours prior on the BBC and still went ahead on the ABC. That’s the biggest problem. It isn’t just that it took ten hours post-publishing to be nominally corrected on an ABC program or another week for an online correction— it is that THREE HOURS AFTER BBC HAD DISPROVEN ITS OWN STORY, the ABC HAD PUBLISHED IT.

As taxpayers we pay for FACTS not fantasies. Defund the ABC and SBS.

ABC could start by turning their comments on once in a while.
@
Note that all mainstream media turn off their comments on social media, especially when they are attacking conservatives and Israel!
@
Woke government funded broadcasters
@
These false reports are done ON PURPOSE.

Public funding must be scrapped, not only to ABC, but SBS too.
