In breaking news, Gavin Atkins over at The Oz have uncovered a evidence of “left-leaning group-think at The Drum”. The real measure of bias at The Drum is not the range of opinion, it’s the frequency. Until the end of last month, 98 writers had been published eight or more times at The Drum, producing [...]  Hmm…”How about a $223 million contract to broadcast Australia Network, the government’s overseas television station that reaches more than 34 million households in 44 countries throughout Asia, the Pacific and the Indian subcontinent?” If that’s a five year contract, it aint a lot of money for TV service unless you get all of your content for [...] Today’s story by Michelle Grattan shows us another aspect of “new” Labor, getting everybody back to work particularly those bludgers on disability welfare. It is all the more disturbing that this message was delivered in person by Ms Gillard to the esteemed audience of the Sydney Institute. There are clearly two messages, one to be [...] This is nuts! What we should be doing is building a network that is capable of meeting our demands today and what we can see, reasonably foresee for a reasonable period in the future Turnbull also advises anyone who believes that such a future will require the sort of capacity fibre optic systems provide, to get [...] This is truly bizarre. Beware the revolution by young people who participate in community organisations… Protests and organisation are only right when the old fogeys in the ultra conservative tea party do it.

Is he feeling threatened by the upstart Facebook, a company now apparently worth more [...] Conroy today gave further proof that it’s the business of government to protect vested interests who pay them enough money.

The list of high profile professional sports is a money spinner for free-to-air and their symbiotic relationship with various [...] Remember when the west was sitting on a high moral horse and criticising mainland China for its repressive internet policy? How Google suddenly accommodated China’s political censorship? Well the free internet is dead in the west as well. Attacks shut down WikiLeaks. Sadly the so-called 4th estate seems to have lost the plot when it comes to [...] While Ian Verrender is pondering how Aussie Banks can continue to satisfy the essential capitalist prerequisite of ever increasing profits so as to keep shareholders happy he happened to lapse into disclosing a commonsense truth that is rarely uttered in the public domain. The uproar from the community and from politicians about our banks has been [...] So Facebook wants to extend its dominion over all things social on the net with its new messaging system. The term gmail killer has been floated around and gives some insight into the recent spat between Facebook and Google over contact sharing. The youtube vid is a bit lackluster but that could be deliberate since [...] Call me picky but Hartcher is guilty of some wild speculation here – China has learnt well from the blunders of Japan and America My waning interest in mainstream reporting notwithstanding I have noticed a few articles recently along the lines of the west is doomed, China and India (in particular) are going to swamp us [...] |
