    The Liberal war on the ABC is deadly serious. As commercial media and public interest journalism collapse, Liberals want to sell the ABC "to a media mogul"https://www.theage.com.au/politics/federal/liberal-party-council-votes-to-sell-off-the-abc-20180616-p4zlut.html …

        What is it with people worrying about country people and the ABC, as a country person, sell the ABC , it is an inner city institution, no longer the voice of the outback.

        The money Murdoch will have after he seals a deal with either Disney or Comcast for his Fox assets will make @ABCaustralia very very cheap for him. He wants to focus on news & sports & needs a free to air in Australia to blend with his cable & print. He will kill abc online

        Clearly testing the waters, but they, and Murdoch, haven't eroded enough trust in the ABC *yet* to make any sale palatable. And they've handed opponents a big stick come election time. People like and trust the ABC #SaveOurABC

        We are entering very, very dark times with this government. I do hope, though, this will be enough to consign them to the garbage bin of history come next election.

        Let me think- why doesn't this surprise me? They sell off everything they can lay their hands on. In NSW sell off everything of any use, why? To build sports stadiums no one wants. Bloody inept. #auspol #gladys
