One of the headlines on the ABC (Australia) home page today appeared as: "Gas giant launches legal action against Australia's biggest pork producer".
Taking it completely out of context, I choose to imagine that the planet Jupiter (a gas giant) has launched legal action against an Australian politician (politicians being known for "pork-barrelling" and "telling porkies").

A Hobart City councillor got a 7-day suspension for violating a code of conduct and is, predictably, whingeing about it.
She's a transphobe, so I hope she fails badly when she takes her case to the federal court.

One of my very few guilty pleasures, if I'm home in the afteroon, is to watch re-runs of the excellent #ER on #ABCEntertains channel.
I love watching it because it's a trip down memory lane, but most importantly I enjoy it because it has #subtitles.
I watched it last week. It was great.
I turned it on just now.
NO #SUBTITLES
I don't get it. It's discrimination.
I shall YET AGAIN email #ABCAustralia and explain how discrimination works.

Murder accused former police officer Beau Lamarre-Condon makes courtroom outburst
He pleaded not guilty to all charges, though personally I think he's guilty as sin.
By the time the trial starts next September, it'll be over 2.5 years since the alleged murder.

"Australians lay dead as investors of Optus's parent company bought shares" is one hell of a link snippet. The burn melted a hole in my monitor.
I've often grumbled about the clickbaity headlines ABC Australia tacks above otherwise sane articles, but I have no complaint here. (The full headline is "Three Australians lay dead as investors of Optus's parent company Singtel were buying up its shares" - which lacks some of the punch but is an accurate summary.)

Hate to fuel conspiracy theories but Laura Tingle was cut off exactly as she said "South African apartheid moment" in relation to Israel on Insiders. Who pressed the dump button?

Seriously #ABCAustralia
FUCK OFF! with your Liberal Party /Murdoch Media talking points.
Australia does not have a funding problem for these projects. It has a REVENUE problem. If corporations and billionaires paid their taxes we could have a lot more Public Transport.
Plus the SRL connects multiply train lines together. It's not just for people traveling from Cheltenham to Box Hill. (another Murdoch media myth) #Auspol #SRL

ABC Australia management screwed up. This is not surprising given the calibre, and political biases, of the current incumbents.
The court finding is not surprising. What is surprising is that the ABC has not been brought back to its charter sooner, given its obvious bias in its broadcasts.
Time will tell if the ABC can recover its quality and reputation. One can only live in hope.
It is an important institution and when it operates properly benefits all Australians.

NT government to reverse some anti-discrimination law protections.
"The plan to revoke the vilification clause was supported by faith groups"...
Well, f**k those faith groups. -
Why do news organisations - and most especially the (Australian) ABC - stay on X and Facebook? Anyone can find them there to pass on information, and I can see that might be a valid reason - in fact for any social media, even something as toxic as Truth Social. But only to use it as a source. For a news organisation to mix in, to actively participate, to communicate using those avenues, seems reprehensible given the nature of some of those bodies. Content creates attention, and attention is the lifeblood of X or Facebook, so while passively listening is one thing, actively contributing is implicit support.
With the honorable exception of Mastodon, I don't think the ABC should be giving that implied support to X, Facebook and their ilk.
Pretty sure this is not a very original position, but still.

Bergerac (ABC). High production values. Stunning scenery. Plot a bit formulaic- detective traumatised, how unusual. But there is one unavoidable problem. The detective is pretty stupid. #ABCAustralia

it’s frightening how easily the press have slipped into equating trump with the US [and also australia with the pm] as if the two countries are led by one person onlywell, okay, US congress seems to be in thrall to trump, but… is it really a good idea to leave this unchallenged?

WTF, ABC? Suddenly you're doing Captchas? And not just one, but three in a row? And not just that, they're not even tailored for Australian users (asking for "crosswalks", not pedestrian crossings)?
Not happy.

@Jinjirrie
This looks like it'll be very high profile -
The ABC is in urgent need of fundamental reform. Hopefully the Greens can use this as a precondition for lending support to the next Lab minority govt.
"And the rot clearly starts at the top.
During the 20 years of French and American wars in Vietnam, 63 journalists were killed. Over the seven years of World War II, 67 journalists were killed. In just 18 months, Israel has murdered 209 journalists. This is a journalist murderfest more grotesquely deliberate than any other conflict in history.
So how can the Chair of Australia’s public broadcaster swear life-long allegiance to a regime systematically murdering journalists and perpetually lying about its genocide?"

CW: #Genoocide
You have a reflex response when a guest uses the word "genocide" (the one that Israel is doing, not the ones done to Jews, Armenians, Aborigines.... apparently). Francesca Albanese pointed out your ridiculous position really well on Radio National this morning.
Do not redefine #genocide.
I'll give you a hand: In the ninth ed. Macquarie, it is on page 649 between Genoa cake and Genoese. This word is not fuzzy. The actions of #Israel (and the planned actions of the #USA, announced by their President) are very clearly genocidal. As an organisation who's profession is words, you should be confidently using them in the manner the dictionary documents, then standing firmly behind the battlement of the definition.
(It is worth looking up the writings of the brilliant Raphael #Lemkin too - particularly the bit about preventing the 'rise of future Hitlers'. Maybe it is time for a Background Briefing about the word.)
