Finally, ABC Pravda shunts Laura Tingle

Come on down, X-celebrities Patricia Karvelas, Annabel Crabb, and Sarah Ferguson. Patricia loves hosting Q+A, where entitled ministers and "stakeholders" can jeer at struggling dads or homeless volunteers, disadvantaged by the massive migration.

There are brighter spots. Brisbane's ABC Radio seems a bit fairer than Sydney/Melbourne. ABC News survivor Ian Verrender gets day-release, to write about cost-of-living contradictions, maybe even link mega-migration to rental crisis.

Can these fig-leaves last? Half-seriously, I imagine ABC Recruitment uses AI, to identify media proteges from approved diversity-equity-inclusion backgrounds. Weeding out others, especially lower-class prospects guilty of critical faculties or Anglo heritage.

I used to think, dispense with ABC News and TV, save RN. Even that's 50-50 nowadays.

There's the twee religiosity. Literature has diminished from Ramona Koval to gushing chat-shows. Top-flight presenters like Alan Saunders (no relation) have died or quit. I can Download This Show but must they be so bouncy? Even the Science Show includes UN climate-action propaganda. RN law, psych, history, are still OK.

Overall, 2022-25 ABC News and TV have spearheaded a billion-dollar propaganda-ministry. Running Aussie-battler stories of tearful rental crisis whilst carefully ignoring Albanese's record-busting 1.3 million migration.

ABC only gets worse

High Court and AEC are surviving examples of federal entities where, arguably, internal culture and roles counter the inevitable biases of top appointees. It's ages since I'd say that of federal departments like Treasury, Education, Home Affairs. Or federal agencies like CSIRO, ANU, ABC.

Though Ita Buttrose was a partisan ABC chair, she looks savvy, compared with Labor successor Kim Williams AM. Who meddles just like her.

With no apparent irony, this gent contends that "factualness" is the ABC watchword, we can't be "left or right". To smite (yawn) "lies" and "misinformation", we're "in alliance with the commercial newsrooms to create an informed democratic citizenry". The gratitude of the lower orders is palpable, is it not?

He says this guff publicly, invoking names like Menzies and Chifley. PMs of faraway times, when you could even imagine the national leader having local welfare at heart. Not (hi, Mr Albanese) UN doctrines and policies, Chinese or Indian requirements, and "free" trade agreements.

"ABC Pravda" is how it'll be for years to come. If masochism's your thing, try engaging with their fake consultations, forums, and complaints. Which are scarcely more independent and impartial than Russian or Chinese courts systems.

I doubt the Coalition would dare detonate ABC, if ever regaining power. More likely, they'd try ineffectually, to moderate the imperial broadcaster's suffocating left culture.

I know, I know. We haven't even mentioned the other immigration-propaganda-ministry, $350 million SBS. This UN acolyte is a partisan stronghold of the "ethnic" groups dominating Australia's increasingly divisive politics. SBS Movies is their saving grace.

What a relief, living in a vigorous democracy with rule of law, vibrant groupthink, plus a carefully reforming visionary leader treading UN boardwalks of open-borders and climate-action for net-zero. Wouldn't it be dreadful having a nationalist leader like Giorgia Meloni or Viktor Orbánin charge?
