1. She lied about her ambitions, stuck a knife in the Rudd’s back and then lied about her green agenda and then stuck a knife in Australia’s guts.
   Now she’s going to save Australia from a fate worse than Murdoch – a press that actually has intelligent dialogue on the Green agenda.

4. Yes,it’s time governments got involved in the Press,in order to keep them “free”.
   Look at the current troubles with the Ontario Press Council and Sun Media.Unfortunately, membership is voluntary so a few misfits can cause a lot of unrest.
   Look at the deep satisfaction with one of our Non-voluntary organizations,the Canadian Wheat Board,and it becomes obvious that a similar stance has to be taken with freedom of the Press or soon we’ll have non-compliance spreading all over!
   We need a Bureau of Rightthink, now!
   Maybe it could replace the Long Gun Registry and help keep Maritimers at the trough.

5. Brilliant.

6. Once you control the media you can shoot into the crowds.

7. Yes muzzle the press. The lefts wet dream for years. Of course only the none socialists media
   should be subject to its censorship. The “good ” Communist/green press given subsidies.

8. Its everything we have come to expect from our tolerant friends on the Left.
   Me, I’m already planning my clandestine internet setup.

9. left right bla bla bla.
   it’s ALL agenda driven propaganda.
   Goebbels said it best; mix in some obvious truths, axioms if you will, then hammer and hammer and hammer away with the message. they all do it. left and right. shades of grey.
   you people are so clueless to the realities of the media.
