Maybe that is the problem you would prefer them to just present the side you want to hear ?
The issue is I guess that the side you don't hear so much of is the one that has been clearly stated and created angst amongst the population, what you hear more of is what the public want to hear and the other side of the coin.
The coalition is in government if they want to say something they can call a press conference at any time.
The ABC present what the public want to see and provide that information to the people.
Right now there is concern about housing affordability & healthcare the PM has all the time in the world to say whatever he wishes and the information has clearly been put out - it's now about the other sides - it's not one mans word that rules the roost in a democracy.

"The ABC present what the public want to see and provide that information to the people."
I don't think so. The ABC put forward their preferred view of the news item from a biased left of centre perspective. All of their presenters exhibit a specific political colour (as does Andrew Bolt, but he is not taxpayer funded).
