They all have to get it right sometimes but that doesn't mean they aren't biased.
It's more balanced to get your news from across the board than to stick to the bias of only one outlet's narrow view.
Not only that, but there's a context to this that goes beyond "HAHA u go to the ABC when u critisize it lolz".
The ABC has a charter that claims to be "trustworthy and unbiased". Myself, along with a couple of others, merely point out that this is a load of crap. There is a shit ton of evidence posted in the
dedicated thread dedicated to the subject to support this, including my statement that I would sooner trust Master Light's YouTube videos than any news. The concept of "unbiased news reporting" is now a myth, despite being taught otherwise.
Brian is well aware of this, yet in his blatant hypocrisy, he's trying to disrupt discussion and bait people.
A couple of people on here claim they are "fed up" with the "denigration" of Brian, yet conveniently ignore the fact that he trolls and stifles discussion on a daily basis.
What does, apart from me posting an ABC article, this have to do with the topic? Nothing.
People elsewhere state that he's "unfairly picked on", and targeted upon by you unfairly.
Bullshit.
If anything, you are showing favouritism towards him because he continues to get away with this behaviour, apart from a slap on the wrist with a wet lettuce leaf every now and then. What makes it even worse is he criticizes everybody else for doing it. What a joke.
If anybody should be punished or banned for constant baiting, flaming and ad hom, it's him.
But don't get me wrong, this isn't a complaint at your way of running things, or a request for him to be banned. People like him and Juliar make the place fun.
This is more a note for those who see Brian as a "victim".
