I find it appalling that the Government continues to run the line that is hasn& #39;t cut ABC funding.
Here& #39;s the analogy I like to use:
Imagine telling your child that they are getting $10 pocket money a week, and it will rise by $1 a week on their birthday each year.

Then you decide to cut it to $8 a week.
Then you decide it will only rise 50 cents a year instead of $1.
When they complain, you say it& #39;s not "a cut" because it is still rising every year.
That& #39;s what the Government has done to ABC funding. 2/3

All Australians need to make it clear they see through this kind of sophistry and want real and adequate funding for THEIR public broadcasters - both ABC and SBS. 3/3
