take you there. Jack: 14 Jun 2012 9:49:47am The ABC is the most trusted because historically it just reported actual news. It waited on "scoops" until actually fully verified. With social media and forums however in abundance - the ABC "news" is now being distorted with opinion pieces. And every time thre is one hundreds of the labor brainwashed jump in like Rudd used to - to say "me too". Give it time and ABC will lose the trust. If it isn't slipping already. ursus augustus: 14 Jun 2012 9:42:59am Well the answer to that is pretty obvious, journalists have about a 10% approval rating, down with politicians and used car salesmen. "Most trusted media organisation" might be put along side "favourite bank robber" for proper context. To be fair, the ABC covers a lot of niche areas where politics does not really come into the mix in any significant way. It is in news and CA that the groupthink, bias and the narrow bandwidth reporting and array of voices are clearly evident. That Mark Scott does not 'get' it is symptomatic that he is part of the problem either through a shared agenda, stupidity or cowardice in the face of his mob in my opinion. Peter: And yet enquiry after enquiry finds that the ABC is not biased or biased towards the right (coalition). Meantime the mainstream private media are all to the right. So, in your view, bias will only disappear when every news outlet reports to fit
