labour propaganda (this is joke btw abc should stay untouched from the gov))
The abc is subjugated as state media nowadays
Rupert Murdoch is our Puppet Master
Gotta give it those shitcunts, slimy fuckers.
"Our Prime minister", they show Rupert Murdoch. Its sad but true..
OMG the parallels between this and what the Tories are doing to the BBC here in the UK are blatant. They are literally reading from the same play book.
You guys make me cry …. with both laughter and despair. You're doing such an important job. Never stop.
let's see how the real Australian government would react to this
Jeezus! You all sound like the US on steroids.
Its amazing RICH people and the government can spell A B C ??????? did they cheat and copy the answers from some POOR person again ?????? !!!!!!!!!
Another excellent clip. In the UK they did exactly the same to the BBC !
<3
Newscorp turned America into an Australian colony 🙁
We know thinks have changed a lot now though 100% not our abc
Friendlyjordies hates the ABC, so I'm torn. There's good points on both sides and I really feel like its more of the same, the LIBERALL GOVERNMENT ruining everything you love
What the ABC was 20 years ago is no more it abandoned independent journalism for the dumbed down mediocrity of Progressive Liberalism and ended up through the pandemic as nothing more than the governments bitch. RIP the ABC.
I wonder how much people were payed to dislike this video
The real facts.
Save the ABC!!
"The difference between a subject and a citizen is the ability to defend yourself from the government "
– Thomas Jefferson
Sadly this is also the UK…
The news might be depressing. But at least something is raising
Congratulations ladies, you are cool and funny. Still wonder that you haven't been banned.
Good on you, for trying to keep the bastards honest.
Please, oh, please do something similar to support the UK's BBC ! It's about to go the same way as your ABC . And, while you're about it, please help to save our NHS, also under threat from the hard right, populist gang of mendacious incompetents that are ' in- charge' here in the UK.
I can't figure out why i'm so addicted to watching these honest ads while nothing from that continent bother me
I would say well I don't live in Australia BUT I LIVE IN SOUTH AFRICA
Unbelievable, EXACTLY WHAT THE FUCKING TORIES IN THE UK are doing with the BBC!!! And these bastards call this shitfuckery (hehe) Democracy??
awesome content and delivery as always.
I sense a parallel with the UK and the BBC.
the um "funny" thing about this ads is that I'm from Poland and I feel like I'm watching my government honest ads. continents are different, but politicians obviosly are not
Just Left Wing Shit-Fuckery!
In Portugal the government doesn't need to privatize state-owned broadcasting services because they're right-wing too.
Love the 'life of Brian' type joke in there. You should know which bit I'm talking about.
Huh, that seems completely cool and normal
I could literally watch this the lady talk, about almost anything, for days on end. I know she’s lip synching, but I don’t care.
The ABC is not a trusted source of news. I agree with many of your videos but not this one.
aunty's too hard left, anyway! there's no such thing as a completely honest & trustworthy news source anymore. they're either too left or too right & no longer moderate, nor call things in the middle.
See also the BBC in the UK.
Al Jazeera news? Im telling you right now you better tell my country new Zealand that prime minister john key and barrack obama gave weapons to the freedom fighters now called ISIS and you were the frontline backing news agency's for freedom fighters AKA ISIS or you will be destroyed like i told you 2016. And you just proved to me Ukraine was with ISIS
Australian Government not realizing that since it is state-owned they can show whatever they want and not what they hate:
Why the fuck are you so attractive
Another brilliant take down. I would love to see you do a history of news corpse. The company that has almost single-handedly destroyed democracy worldwide.
