Apart from the wealth of tv shows that you would never see on commercial channels , the ABC does provide balance .
While we have the Murdoch's of the world manipulating politics we will always require other organisations to provide balance .
Murdoch and co to the right or more to his bank balance while the ABC is a bit left . Those of us that can think for ourselves can usually look at both sides and make a determination for ourselves . Unlike some of the perpetually offended on this forum .
I can take the ABC's political comment with a grain of salt . I just watch it because of all the quality programs it has . I rarely watch the commercial networks .
