You conveniently overlook the fact that it is a public utility funded by all - I find their constant condescening attitude to those with different political or social views - people whom they regard as a minority - complete hypocrisy. We can get moderated now for merely pointing that homosexuals are a minority - yet these cretins at the ABC are the biggest practioners of racism and political censorship in Australia - funded by the public - its economic model is a relic from the fifties and they are no longer required to get the news out to the public - just take the dog to the vet and put it down.
