ABC Chairman Justin Milne took up his position only a few months ago, an ascension he celebrated by assuring one and all that bias is not to be found at the national broadcaster. It was a theme he repeated this week, but his claims do not withstand even the most perfunctory fact-check

The provenance of those filing cabinets stuffed with secrets is a hell of a scoop in itself, but the ABC has covered that angle only with gloss. Rather, it sifted and focused on stories that damned the Coalition. In doing so it demonstrated it is above the law and a spineless government beneath contempt

For reasons that have again failed to excite the curiosity of the responsible minister, the national broadcaster seems to bear a persistent animus toward Christianity. Yet, in their attitudes towards women in general and domestic violence in particular, the followers of Jesus set the gold standard

She's a tax-hoovering, memory-challenged elitist who thinks it a grave pity people can still speak freely around their kitchen tables. He's a vulgarian biff merchant, but he does boast one winning credential: unlike the HRC's trough-snouters and the PM who indulges them, he believes in free speech

A new book, to be launched on February 23 by Tony Abbott, features essays from Judith Sloan, Brendan O’Neill, Gary Johns, Jim Molan, Rebecca Weisser, Graeme Haycroft, James Allan, Kerryn Pholi, Jeremy Sammut, Lorraine Finlay, Peter Kurti, Steven Kates and Alan Moran. Here is a sample

Britain's national broadcaster, much against its will, must soon reveal the gold-plated salaries of top stars and lesser lights. Given the ultra-comfy pay deal our ABC collectivists have just awarded themselves, PM Turnbull will want something similar here. Yeah, right

On Monday night, knowing full well what was in store, I nevertheless tuned in to Q&A and saw my worst fears confirmed  as Gillian Triggs materialised on my screen. Worse was to come as Ed Husic and Craig Laundy pumped out their ABC-approved multi-culti platitudes

Private media organisations must defer to consumers and advertisers, while politicians and bureaucracies answer to voters. Independent statutory agencies, such as the ABC, know no such masters. This opens the door to staff capture and, as the national broadcaster demonstrates, makes bias inevitable

Fresh from flogging his gold-plated batteries to basket-case South Australia,  tax-hoovering entrepreneur Elon Musk has announced a Mars mission. A trusting media lapped it up, of course, which left me a little irked. You see, I had the greatest space scoop of all time and the ABC blew it

The ABC is tickled pink about the enormous splash its Canberra editor made on social media with a fact-free, opinion-heavy diatribe against Donald Trump and his administration. It seems the national broadcaster's yardstick for excellence is the number of visitors it gets from Twitter's sewer

There is no surprise that Q&A stacked its panel with groupthink luvvies going the big spit on Bill Leak's grave. It is the pay, retirement packages and perks the national broadcaster lavishes on the wretches responsible that is both shocking and, to the detriment of taxpayers, all too typical

The national broadcaster gobbles around $1.2 billion a year, but its ratings are nothing to write home about and, well, much of what goes to air is as predictable as a climate-change rally, for which its newsrooms might easily be mistaken. Five ways to remedy that

In the thirty-five years since Alex Dix put his intellectual pipe-cleaner through the ABC, the national broadcaster's intellectual, ethical and journalistic debasements have only grown worse. Alas, we cannot expect reform from a timid government and its Q&A-loving leader

Progressively, the progressives of the ABC have loosened the Editorial Guidelines to ensure that nothing and no one can be found in breach. True, all forms of twisted logic must be employed to deny accountability, but the national broadcaster has such minds in plentiful supply

When a news organisation comes into possession of deep national secrets, studies them, divides them across two cities and offers only the most incredible account of their acquisition, one might expect a police raid followed by public hearings. This government just sent over a couple of safes

Penny Whetton was once Peter and a nob catastropharian at the error-prone IPCC, where his shtick was global calamity. Now that she is on the gay-marriage bandwagon, the national broadcaster came calling to bolster its pro-SSM coverage with the view of a Stockholm laureate. He wasn't and she isn't

Conservatives shouldn't be demanding the sacking of this very silly young woman from Islamic Central Casting. Indeed, rather than emulate the Left and apply the gag to someone whose opinions offend, we should beg the ABC to give her even more airtime. Nothing does more damage to a cause than a fool

Abdel-Magied’s claim that 'Islam is the most feminist religion' rests on the no less ridiculous notion that it was first in allowing women to own property. If only the Wife of Bath, entrepreneur and lusty, well-heeled legatee of five husbands, could have taken Jacqui Lambie's place and set her straight

What can taxpayers expect for the billion dollars a year that underwrites the ABC? Not much over the Christmas season, which begins when shows go on hiatus at some point in November and very often doesn't end until March, when rested leftists return to preach the goat-cheese gospel

The cardinal is a thorn in the side of the leftish-minded within and without the Church, so much that those who know little of Christianity and less of its Roman strain feel obliged to smear and denigrate the man. Not surprisingly, such specimens are thick on the ground at the ABC
