Watch out all you lefties at  "Our ABC" the coalition will be coming after you.
The Queensland state conference of the LNP was held today and a motion was proposed calling on the next federal Coalition government to tighten the ABC’s reporting requirements.
It urges the future government to “restore” the ABC to being a “broadcaster of balance, integrity, trustworthiness, patriotism, colour-blindness, high moral standards” and a “supporter of faiths”.The motion also calls for the broadcaster to be an “exemplar of dignity in reporting standards, in compliance with its charter”.

Supporter of faiths? Ermm Wacko 

How many Jews, Buddhists and Muslims are in the Queensland LNP?

How many Protestants and Greek Orthodox are in the LNP?

Broadcaster of high moral standards. Seriously.

Have never met a politician who even knows what high moral standards are.

Broadcaster of colour blindness. Ohh give me strength, now they are just having a lend aren't they?

How have the Queensland LNP treated the Koori population of Queensland? fiddlesticks Wacko
Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise

Apparently Our ABC is "working to boost its reach ", which in layman's terms is to advertise in the face of declining radio and TV audiences. Currently they are advertising, where I don't know, to promote its news services, streaming content and such as children's cartoon Bluey.

So what you say, but do you really think a public broadcaster should blow $16 million on advertising and market research in one financial year of which $8 million was on advertising alone?

Tlaz,  where does the ABC advertise? Surely they do not have to pay themselves to promote their own programs, then again they might.

You read the Hun article not me. $8 million sounds like a tiny advertising budget.

Read Stan Grants comments re QandA today and thought I’d tune in to what used to be my favourite show back in the Tony Jones.
20 minutes later I was fully of regret. 

I suspect Stan is right. Full of hateful and spiteful people Ouch

Obviously you do not watch much of Sky. On the Chris Kenny program there is a bloke from the left- of- centre McKell Institute who always puts up the ALP point of view on all topics. BTW, each night Kenny pumps up the YES vote for the referendum.

Anybody appeared on the publicly funded Q&A for the YES vote yet ?

I dont watch QandA regularly but see on the promos both YES and NO representatives, as is necessary for debate.

Mundine is regularly on ABC programs as is Ms Price.

And Kenny has always been a YES voter wrote a book on it and was a Turnbull appointed Carma Langton group advisor when Libs supported it.

He host his own show, not a guest on it.

You can browse the guest list here Bob. Looks like one left, one right, one independent and a couple of specialists on most shows.

He is a long time supporter of the voice. 

Why do you think he is unafraid of the Aboriginal apocalypse coming if it gets up?

Crosby Textor long time Liberal pollsters here and in UK are also supporters and they do the YES campaigns internal polling.

 The Mardi Gras commentary in March is usually worse.

 I thought Nerelda Jacobs was quite disgraceful, two years back. Some of her comments were just outright smut.  

 And that is saying something, since I am not easily offended by language...

So to make that comment you presumably have to watch it.  LOL

ps do you have a problem with the LGBIQA population speaking out for themselves, or just the ABC coverage of the Mardi Gras?  Or maybe both?

Come out of your own closet plastics.  Big smile
