someone should tell the ABC. They played the worst extraction industry ad ever made just yesterday. For free. On the public broadcaster.

maybe ABC management does not weigh up the implications of amplifying failed Liberal Party politicians who campaign for gruesome death industries. Or they do, and decide to legitimise corrupted profiteering anyway. I bet they rely on a weak “satire” rationale.
just this arvo I listened to an ABC host amplifying the messaging of another failed Liberal Party politician (Trent Zimmerman, whose politics align with many white journos) to frame a stance against expansion of fossil fuel extraction as “prolonging the climate wars”.
if you support expansion of fossil fuel extraction and fracking the Beetaloo Basin just say so cowards. No need to blame people who are against it for such a garbage policy position.
