The ABC is a national disgrace and should be immediately defunded IMHO. Their hysterical coverage of the scamdemic has lent legitimacy (at least in the eyes of the self-styled intelligentsia who are their primary audience) to the State and Federal policies that have made ordinary Australians' lives so miserable for the past 20 months.
A previous me would have been aghast at any suggestion of defunding/privatising the ABC but after their miserable performance on Covid/lockdowns/vaxxes, the sooner they stop nicking my taxes to pay for their virus bilge the better. Let their liberal, Covid-demented constituency fund their own little corner of the Mad, Mad Covid world. All my radio presets that were tuned to the ABC have now been deleted and I never watch the ABC on the TV now because I would get hoarse from shouting at it in disgust.

I used to LOVE listening to Radio National. Never again.
