I'm going to start a company which will just be entirely driven by people named Al, then I'm going to see how much VC funding I can raise before someone realizes it's an Al company not an AI company.

"the decision was made to appease the pro-Israel lobbyists who would inevitably escalate their complaints about the ABC employing a presenter they perceived to have anti-Semitic and anti-Israel opinions in such a public position." BAM.

For those too young to remember... yes the coverage and the politics are worse than they were in 2003. Don't let anyone tell you things were worse back then. These same people who were awful back then are still here being awful, except they have learned they don't even need to pretend to care.

i hate posts like "nobody learned anything from the Iraq war." Wrong! They learned they could get away with it with 0 consequences! None of them served a day's jail time, when all of them deserved to be sh*t. it was the war that taught the world there is no rules.

LOL. Surprised it is doing so well as to hit 2 of 12 eco-goals. In broad terms, this is what you get when you try to dissolve ecological mananagement in the magic crucible of a market #auspol in order to avoid the hard political work of rational environmental management.

Israel attacked Iran to stop it developing nuclear weapons. But there's a double-standard here. Israel developed nuclear weapons in the 1960s. Israel never declared them. It's not a member of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. It submits to no inspections by anyone. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06...

I doubt the ABC is fulfilling even 25% of its charter these days: no doco, education, natural history, or proper archives units, few/no opportunities for original comedy shows, especially written or hosted by women, a disapparated arts coverage, no science on TV, no international service ...

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.

Exactly. The JCPOA is a nuclear agreement reached in 2015 between Iran and world powers, including the US, aimed at limiting Iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. Trump WITHDREW the US from it in 2018 & Iran began ignoring limitations on its nuclear program a year later.

Madness. SBS News: Trump holds up a folder, says how wonderful to sign this agreement with the European Union, and a squirming Keir Starmer blinks, gulps, and forces himself to reply 'Thank you Donald.' Trump clearly has no idea what he's doing or who he's even talking to.

If you are too young to remember the Iraq War, you'll hear "no one protested" and "no one knew they were lying." Millions of people knew they were lying and protested. The press not only did not want a record of mass dissent; they did not want a record of mass knowledge of lies.
