Australian Broadcasting Avis 

Just become rubbish peddlers, what's happened to good journalism.

Why are we getting bombarded with nohoper human interest stories now. It's mentally depressing to read news reading about other peoples misfortune. The news is supposed to be news not this pathetic woke crap that it constantly serves up!
It must be embarrassing for the journalists that work there as it's not the hard hitting journalism they expected when they completed their university degree.

My goodness, how savy were the libs appointing Ita Buttrose as Chair. Who would have thought such an incompetent government could get it so right. Forget further unpopular cuts to the national broadcaster, appoint an incompetent Chair Ita Buttrose instead. The ABC has turned to mush under such poor leadership. So beige, so Ita Buttrose. Naturally the new federal government will maintain the non threatening "beige-ness".

I find Sarah Ferguson interviewing style with Peter Dutton combative & condescending.
I have always been a fan of the ABC until the start of Covid,now the news & current affairs is left & biased,now only watch the drama series.
Lara Tingle is another version of Sarah Ferguson
How Albanese government is not being called out on the decision to scrap cashless card & lifting alcohol bans in aboriginal communities,show what a wast of time The Voice is as they have just set those communities back to the days of high alcohol fueled violence & neglect of children.Don’t see the ABC reporting on this
Wolk & biased reporting not what taxpayers expect from a public broadcaster

Why does a media outlet that is supposed to foster discussion, try to be so dictatorial? Why can't the national broadcaster incorporate the broad variety of views that exist in Australia?

As an Australian tax payer I am appalled by the bias reporting on the ABC. So much for a balanced approach. It's cringe worthy and just plain awful. I was a huge fan of ABC years ago, now I just can't stand to watch it.
Rowland, Miller, Probyn, Tingle, Karen Middleton, Leigh Sales, all of the same ilk. Bash the LNP and promote the ALP, what happened to a fair go for all? I won't be going back any time soon. Ita Buttrose you should be ashamed to have degraded the national broadcasting channel.

I once loved ABC news. It was one of three go to online news site. I don't know if the decline was from deliberate LNP sabotage or if they seemed to get more attention. But regardless the quality plummeted and stayed there - to the point I just scroll the headlines and don't click anything - I refuse to engage in clickbait headlines and pretend news.

Please return to the quality journalism you were once known for. Until then I'll stick with other sources.

The ABC is the real government in Australia. They have society by the throat and have turned us into a grovelling bunch of whimps. We dont make our own mind up any more, we suck up the radical slop from our media food bowls while our ABC masters tell the government of the day what decision to make next.

Four Corners is simply unwatchable. Never a real story on corruption, just implied corruption by honest farmers, or conservative community groups, or religious organisations, or miners and other hardworking tax payers - they're public enemy number one as far as ABC are concerned.

With a budget of over $1B a year, they're unaccountable. They've cleverly stopped any real public scrutiny and instead host pretend feedback shows like The Drum, so you feel like opinions are being listened to.

Shame on you #itabuttrose you've presided over the most rapid decline in standards of journalism since the idea was dreamt up.

ABC ran a story on the 11/5/22 regarding 'Melbourne parents sue Parade College after alleged bullying stoush leads to son's expulsion (posted 11/5/22 by Elise Pianegonda". Despite offering to provide supporting evidence of other similar incidents at Parade College which may assist the current case and the general public regarding Parade College, the ABC has shown no further interest and is not concerned with natural justice but only with a news story at the time and nothing else.

ABC Ticket 327365 has gone no further and is obviously not considered important to the ABC.

The ABC is supposed to be an impartial news channel is it not? Is this not funded by the tax payer?
The ABC is nothing more than a liberal bashing channel. Presenters are rude to liberal politicians during interviews or more like interrogation.
This kind of bias is not a way to persuade voters.
My personal political view has nothing to do with this review.

Just saw absolutely biased main rude abusive main presenter try to justify bias against russia.Disgusting verbal shout off!!We live in a democracy!Or has abc once again forgotten that?!In a modern democracy we welcome difference of viewpoint me an my mates will never watch q&a an a lot less of rude bias abc so called news an other shows!Time to grow up an try to act like mature decent adults!!TALK is CHEAP!Really disgusted!!!😬

Unbiased and honest overall. As always some people will have biases but the organisation as whole does fine!

It may actually come as no surprise to learn that flagship programs on the ABC are little more than propaganda. They regularly and militantly out weaker members of society in order to make a point, or to gain notoriety among their base of supporters.

Cleverly disguised as news, the ABC combines an impressive number of mistruths and opinions under the guise of keeping people informed.

Prominent ABC stars seem puzzled when asked why personal bias bleeds through to their on-air role. Comical Ali himself couldn't be less self-aware.

In recent years, as public scrutiny of the ABC was being curtailed, they produced a number of set piece programs aimed at appearing representative of community opinion. The ruse was so successful that gradually even these were stacked with nodding heads who agreed with the ABC agenda. A masterstroke in programming, it gave the impression of community debate around issues the ABC wanted to advance. Despite being little more than a pantomime, quality production and the naivety of viewers has given these programs and indeed all of the ABC a veneer of respectability.

It must be said that after successfully discrediting religion and community groups that were viewed as establishment, the ABC has now filled the vacuum with a religion of their own. On-air presenters are ministers of the new cult, and it is a wildly successful method of control. Not all of them are fundamentalist pastors preaching doom and gloom either, some focus on the carrot of conformity rather than the stick of being shamed by the ABC.

Perhaps in years to come, as community opinion turns and a revolution purges the bias from the media, their deception will receive the attention it deserves. A clever lawyer or class action might shine a light onto their tactics. A Brokovich or Bilott will hold their poisonous ideals up to the light, asking why they added so many toxic opinions to the community’s information source. "WE THOUGHT NO ONE WOULD GET HURT," they will say as they sob in the dock.

Meanwhile the ABC continues to decry bad as being good. They promote the truly awful as desirable, comfortable in the knowledge that for now at least, their job and lifestyle are protected under the banner of Public Broadcaster (of Propaganda).

Through and through a terrible outfit.

They block the ability to comment on their posts on social media. And who is happy to let you shove things down their throat without allowing them respond?
How is that communication in your book?
How does that not sound like propaganda from, and authoritarian of you?

I've since blocked these ABC Australia scum on all channels and am no longer interested in what garbage they have to offer.

The need to express is very fundamental, at the very core of our being as humans. If I can't express myself through a comment on your posts, then you should get lost with whatever BS you're offering.

The fact my hard earned tax dollars, fund this leftist outfit really irks me. Surely something can be done, to make these dinosaurs give Australians a balanced commentary. It’s jobs for the boys, once you’re in, as long as you spew out leftist commentary, you’ve got a job for life. I’m out of there, no more Aunty for me.

you now have to login to abc account to make a comment.....remmember this is a tax payer funded organisation...theres no way i will ever do that.......it was the best way for abc to keep their ear to the ground on what everyday people think.....now i believe the view points may get highly distorted...why...cause you can have vocal minorities that are very loud with their opinions distort what everyday quiet australians are really thinking

Big pharma propaganda...fake news. 100% garbage

The ABC has certainly gone down the path of main media which is a great pity. It is funded by the taxpayer and as such should be 100% unbiased reporting on facts. We do not need the sensationalism or one sided stories.
7.30 Report and PK in particular are not doing any favours for the ABC (forget Q&A). It is obvious from the start of a program or interview what the narrative is and the bias is obvious. "Hard" questions are not asked of the guests that agree with the narrative while hostile aggressive questions are fired at the guests who are not in line.
Good policy needs to be applauded not attacked repeatedly looking for any minute issue. Perceived poor policy should certainly be interrogated however completed with a bit of respect and giving a balanced view from all sides. The ABC is funded, it does not need the sensationalism and theatrics of its commentators. A balanced, accurate with full disclosure of facts in reporting is very rare with "fake" news prevalent that's why it is imperative the ABC get back to the reporting demanded by the Australian taxpayer.

Please please bring back Virginia Trioli to the breakfast show. Michael Rowland was bearable to watch when he had a strong co-host but now I would rather watch 9 or 7 and put up with their annoying commercials than watch the drivel from the current hosts. Michael Rowland is unable to speak without waving his arms around like he is conducting a symphony orchestra while Lisa Millar sits beside him grinning like the Cheshire cat. If you can't get Virginia back then let Joe O'Brien host the breakfast show. It is about time the ABC was privatised.

Pure far left propaganda. Utterly disgusting.
