Far from having a leftwing bias, the ABC has been tamed by cuts and incessant attacks
Under the Coalition, the national broadcaster has been domesticated to the point of overcorrecting for perceived partisanship

Great piece from @MrKRudd on how the ABC has been cowed and wrecked by the Coalition -- and how ABC journalists are wasting their time if they think showing bias to the Coalition will save them.

Why aren't Morrison's campaign tricks working?
Honed in elections in the US, UK and Australia in recent years, the PM's campaign tactics look much less effective in 2022.

Bernard Keane@BernardKeane
Morrison has 4 tactics from a well-tested global right-wing election playbook:
1. targeted porkbarrelling
2. coordinating attacks with News Corp/tame journalists
3. culture wars
4. demonisation of opponents/policies
So why haven't they worked so far?

Michael Powell is one of many Australians facing years on a waitlist for public dental care because he cannot afford to fork out thousands on out-of-pocket expenses.
