With Labor adopting neoliberalism and implementing it in Australia from 1983 onwards, the nature of the media has moved more and more to the right in its reporting and commentary. The ABC has not been immune from this march to the right. Whereas News Limited is the voice of the fruitcake faction of capital, the ABC is the centre-right ‘sensible’ and ‘balanced’ voice of capital. Is there an alternative? I look forward to ABC workers taking over the corporation, getting rid of all the overpaid sooks and reporting working class news and views.

Tony Abbott thinks the Australian Broadcasting Corporation is Un-Australian. I am looking forward to his government setting up the House Un-Australian Activities Committee.
