Believe it or not, you still need someone who is half-decent at journalism, and can sit in front of a camera.
Despite what you may think of yourself, there are probably 100,000 to 1 odds that you cannot do anything close to what Emma Alberici, Tony Jones, Juanita Phillips or Ticky Fullerton can do.
These guys are on less than 400k... Their commercial counterparts are usually on a million. I'd say the ABC is doing pretty well.
