The Voice Referendum and the ABC’s True Colours

The ABC’s recent report on its own coverage of the Voice Referendum found breathtaking bias but concluded they did a good job anyway. Sounds about right.

Another week, another report by the ABC about the ABC for the ABC.

You see, they’ve released the report on their Voice referendum coverage.

Sure enough, this self-serving piece of backside-covering found that despite giving nearly double the coverage to the Yes side over the No side, the ABC reckon the ABC did a great job!

They reckon “the coverage was high quality and successfully included diverse voices and opinions from all parts of Australia”.

They noted that the coverage was never meant to be 50/50.

You don’t say.

Not My Job to Boost Their Ratings

The ABC singled me out for apparently declining 52 interview requests across various programs.

They can cry about it as much as they like, but it wasn’t my job to boost the ratings of a failing activist ABC.

I was focused on talking to voters and convincing them to vote No — and let’s face it, most voters don’t watch the ABC so giving them interviews was not going to help stop the efforts to divide Australians by race.

That said, I have, in fact, spoken with the ABC 25 times this year.

Which just goes to show that even when you occasionally give them something, they’ll still come after you in the end if you’re not on the inner city activist ABC team.

The ABC’s Activist Agenda

Ultimately, though, this isn’t about me.

It’s about the fact that the ABC aren’t interested in serving the Australian people.

They’re only interested in themselves and their activist priorities, which they relentlessly pursue with your tax dollars.

You and I know they never intended on giving the No campaign a fair run.

The ABC knows it never intended on giving us a fair run either.

When they’re dedicating full episodes of Australian Story to prominent Yes campaigners they can’t really be serious about efforts to be impartial.

When their fake fact checks were all slanted one way, declaring disputed opinions and Labor government talking points were “facts”, you know they were never interested in informing the Australian people.

This report just shows the reality of who the ABC are.

A staff-run activist collective that has no interest or intention of serving the Australian taxpayers who fund them.

I look forward to declining many more interview requests from them in the future.
