If Moira Deeming sues John Pesutto, I hope she sues @ABCaustralia next. Altho, ABC had no reporter at the Let Women Speak event March 18, 2023, nor did it interview any participants or organisers; Moira Deeming or Angie Jones, or the main draw card at the event Kellie-Jay /1 twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

ABC has promoted the Nazi / fascist narrative through all its channels; @abc730, @abcnews, TV news, the website and @RNBreakfast that the organisers of LetWomenSpeak and the participants were associated with the Neo-Nazis that showed up. @MRowlandMP /2

Furthermore, the narrative that #LetWomenSpeakMelbourne participants were affiliated with either far right, or fascist, and/or were promoting a violent narrative at the event to INCITE hatred or violence towards transgender people. /3

It needs to be noted that:
1. Violence committed against women participants and members was not reported on or filmed by @abcnews , @abc730 or other mainstream media.

2. The fact that no violence was committed BY the women at the event was not commented on. (Even tho TRA, assaulted them at 10.45, 11 am, with thrown objects, liquid, and knocked a women unconscious around 12.30ish, and kicked Moira Deeming) twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

3. Fact: no incitement of violence or hate was directed at the anti-trans people in the speeches of the women at that event. As can be seen by the accompanying transcripts bit.ly/42qzh3s and the end to end YouTube coverage of the event. #ABCStateBroadcaster

4. The violence of the trans-rights-activists and Neo Marxists (red flag wavers) was not shown.
5. No participant or organiser has been spoken to, till this day some 5+ weeks later. #WaitingForTheTaxPayerFundedABCToEngageInJournalism #ABCStateBroadcaster

6. ABC has supported the two most powerful politicians (Daniel Andrews and John Pesutto) in Victoria in their public accusations against private citizens of Nazism and extreme right wing fascism - Australia wide, by a State funded Media without giving them right of reply.

7· No consideration given of the consequences to those women of being branded as ‘nazis’, Australia wide by a state funded media. ABC has defamed the organisers and participants at the Let Women Speak event to their detriment. As a direct result of ABC's false narrative...

We have seen MP Moira Deeming suspended for 9 months from the Liberal party, she has reported threats to herself and family, including a trespasser on her property, as a mother she's most concerned about her kids. We've seen Juanita Morgan removed from a charity for founded...

Because of @ABCaustralia 's defamation women have seen loss of friends due to alleged Nazi association, direct threats and social media threats of rape, violence and death. We've seen @UniMelb allow harrassment of @aytchellesse spruiked by ABC's Nazi, fascist narrative...

And here's where we the Australian public are waiting for the tax payer funded ABC to engage in journalism and report the evidence accurately, fairly and impartially according to statutory required editorial standards. BUT, an outstanding lack of investigation by the ABC...

Around 11 am, the police recognised the Nazis by their Nazi salute. YET, knowing these men were Nazi the police allowed/led the Neo-Nazis to the parliamentary steps for a 14 minute photo shoot, ~12.30ish doing litte to help the women who were attacked by a TRA at the same time

The police did not stop violent acts against the Let Women Speak participant just prior to the start of the event. 11 am either, they stood and watched. One of the Neo-Nazis has a father on the police force. Why didn’t ABC interview the police on their actions?

Thomas Sewell reported on his Telegraph account and interview with the Neo Nazi leader that Sergeant Ashleigh tried to shake his hand, but he struck it away - was that true? Why didn't ABC interview the police?

The Andrews government brought in the laws that have discriminated and harmed women, that the women are protesting. There was no consideration that Andrews demonising the women and associating women with Nazis may be a political move to silence dissent! #ABC twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

ABC has acted as a state funded mouthpiece for the government and the trans lobby which it funds through its membership of ACON. It has abdicated from its role to hold the government and politicians accountable for its actions against the public and is engaging in propaganda. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

I have questions! 1. Why did ABC not distinguish between the women and the Nazis? Why did they just roll them up into one group? The Freedom group with the protect children banner was tween them and the LWS speak event, did they really rely on hearsay? bit.ly/3LV352v twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

2. Did anyone at the ABC ask the police why they let the Nazis through? Particularly as one of the police’s son’s was a member of the group, we would assume that they knew who these men were?

3. Can the @ABCaustralia explain why demanding protection of sex based rights for women means they are exciting violence or hatred towards trans identifying men?

4. Can the ABC demonstrate that its ACON membership has no influence on editors or journalists and how they think about and/or report about this issue? #ABCStateBroadcaster

5. Can the ABC demonstrate that its ACON membership has no influence on either David Anderson or @ItaButtrose and fellow board members and how they think about this issue and how it is reported?

6. Can Mr Anderson & @ItaButtrose explain how any of the ABC’s coverage of this event – and in particular Sarah Ferguson and Patricia Karvelas’ reporting – meets the ABC’S editorial standards of impartiality when no ABC journalist has spoken to the women who attended the rally?

Can ABC editors, @FergusonNews and @PatsKarvelas explain how they have met the ABC’s editorial standards of accuracy, fairness and impartiality when they have never sought to speak to any of the people who attended the let women speak rally AND...

@FergusonNews and @PatsKarvelas have never sought to verify any facts beyond hearsay from people who weren’t there and an unverified, Wikipedia-sourced ‘dossier’?

Why has @abcnews not reported on the Greens’ refusal to expel a Trans activist on the Greens executive who has posted pro-Nazi material, pro paedophilia material and rape material on their social media accounts?

Using Sarah Ferguson’s @FergusonNews view of things, this is a directly comparable example to her hammering away at Pesutto over his refusal to expel Moira Deeming. Isn't it?

@FergusonNews , @PatsKarvelas Why has neither Ms Ferguson nor Ms Karvelas interviewed Greens leader Adam Bandt or his Victorian state equivalent about their failure to eject a pro-nazi, pro-paedophile, pro-rape senior member of the party? @ItaButtrose

@ABCmediawatch The ABC reported on federal Labour’s ejection of CFMMEU leader, John Setka for his violence against his partner. Why not ask the greens about their pro-Nazi member?

So I repeat we are waiting for the tax payer funded @ABCaustralia to engage in journalism and report the evidence accurately, fairly and impartially according to statutory required editorial standards. The ABC is a State broadcaster.

The ABC’s complete lack of balance in reporting means that it is failing to cover legitimate policy debate like; How do children give informed consent to medicalised transition? Why are male rapists allowed in Victorian women’s prisons...

@ABCaustralia why can’t lesbians meet without the presence of men. Why can't girls and women undress without men watching? Why are men in women's sports protected when they harm women? lostwomensrights.com

@abcnews, @abc730 @RNBreakfast @ABCaustralia Your defamation of ordinary women demonised for protesting against Victoria's states laws that harm us. ABC is not fit to call itself a public broadcaster as it no longer conducts public interest journalism.
