So now is the time for all Australians to stand up for the ABC, and SBS, to deliver the political support needed for their survival and re-generation.Now is the time for the Liberal and National parties to see at last that News Corp’s ranting vilification of public broadcasters is commercially and viciously self-serving.Were these political parties true nation builders they would wisely roll with any punches from impertinent ABC journalists and, while correcting their errors, would accept that accountability is a free media and occupational hazard.And now is the time for Shorten to put a money commitment where his mouth is.
