I've seen a few articles on the ABC recently about privacy and security, mainly around Chinese EVs and those cheap pervert glasses and how our data is being sent back to China. Is the fact no one is talking about how much of our data is being sent back to the US as well because we tick a little box somewhere to agree to the behaviour? Why is no one reporting on US companies? I distrust them much more. #auspol #abc #china #privacy

OMG. Y'all! The WH #Press Pool found their collective spine and said that if some journalists were not allowed, then nobody would put a camera in the malignant narcissist's face, and see how he likes it when there's nobody who can see or hear him spout syphilitic slanders. “This is to advise that, effective today, the TV pool will not be covering events designated as pool coverage of the President,” Boughton wrote in the email, obtained by POLITICO. “This follows the White House’s position preventing #CNN from fulfilling its assigned pool duties. There will be no replacement pool put in place.” Ol' Diaper Daddy gonna be out there just flapping his gums in the wind, with nary a soul to listen. It will crush him. He's gonna be so mad. Hold your hats kids, there's a temper tantrum on the horizon. He may declare war on Atlanta. https://www.politico.com/news/2026/09/21/networks-white-house-pool-duty-01086044 #ABC #CBS #CNN #NBC #FoxNews

Meta Caught Paying Nazis to Post on Facebook #Hate, unfortunately, sells. Right-wing extremism researcher Kaz Ross told *ABC” that #Meta’s “financial model is to reward content creators who get engagement, and as we know, the best way of getting engagement is to produce rage bait, extremist material, aggravating material: anything that will get people upset and arguing is the best way to get engagement.” It’s another example of how quickly Meta dropped its once-stricter content moderation policies when Donald Trump returned to the White House. Shortly before his second inauguration, Meta loosened its standards around hate speech, particularly on topics like gender identity and immigration, two of the far right’s favorite issues. #Facebook is far from the only platform that’s gotten alarmingly chummy with extremists. Earlier this year, #X awarded the $1 million first place prize of its article writing contest to a proudly self-proclaimed Nazi. In a statement, Meta didn’t address specific questions about the pages it was awarding money to, but said it was “important to distinguish between speech that is offensive and content that could potentially lead to offline violence”. “Such speech may be offensive to many, but it is not Meta’s role to police offensiveness,” the company added #HateSpeach #GenderIdentity #immigration #suprematists #ABC #newsToday #extremists #Nazis #Prize ##violence #monetazation #finance #RightWing #US #USpol #politics #globalisation #Australia #offensiveness #financialModel #Police #Futurism @leavex@mastodon.social

1/2 Just watched Dave Milner on today's Sunday Shot. The ABC are censoring one of the four demands by the Arrendte Aboriginal women about Pine Gap. The slaughter in Gaza is censored. Below is the letter. There are four demands. The ABC article, attributed to Emma McMasters, has only 3 demands. (Next post.) Left out is any reference to "4. That the families in Gaza be compensated for all the lives lost there." #EmmaMasters #ABC #Gaza #DaveMilner #SundayShot #PineGap g

@nonyabidniss.bsky.social By the time that happens, ther will be no more legacy media. #cbs is only the first to be assimilated (#fox wasa created that way), and #abc and #nbc will follow soon. Papers are also disappearing. While not a racist man, I'm going to paraphrase one of Samuel L. Jackson's lines in Django Unchained. At this point, legacy media needs to be all given sledgehammers, worked until their backs give out, hit in the head with a hammer, and then thrown into the dead "media" hole.

#Trump asserted that #ABC & #NBC should lose their government-issued broadcast licenses, something that he’s repeatedly suggested & something that his #FCC chairman, #BrendanCarr, has taken unprecedented steps to do, particularly with ABC, in recent months. #BigLie #Trumpaganda #propaganda #gaslighting #law #FirstAmendment #FreePress

English – The Conversation | ABC will trial using AI for journalism. What are the risks and benefits? by Timothy Koskie, Postdoctoral Researcher, School of Media and Communications, University of Sydney AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The ABC has begun a limited trial of generative AI—specifically Anthropic’s Claude—allowing about 100 staff members to use the tool in news production while also piloting its own AI system to turn regional radio bulletins into written articles; the experiment aims to free journalists for deeper investigative work and expand the broadcaster’s output capacity, but it faces Australian public scepticism toward AI and raises ethical and quality‑control concerns that require rigorous verification, even as AI offers concrete benefits such as faster data analysis, translation, and new investigative possibilities that could help journalists compete in a financially strained media landscape; the success of the trial will hinge on whether the ABC can harness AI to improve efficiency and storytelling without compromising editorial standards or eroding audience trust.

some weeks ago i finally gave up on any more broadcast [albeit streamed] tv nightly news & current affairs shows. several months ago i gave up on rn brekkie. as ever, i voraciously consume news & tech all day each day, via my curated rss feeds, my bookmarked browser favs/bookmarks, & fedi, so i'd like to think, hope, i am reasonably well informed, but it's on my terms & that means an absolute intolerance for rn brekkie & abc 7pm tv news + 730 doing their reflexive 'the leader of the oppo says' bullshit. my brief experiment several weeks back to substitute sbs news for abc, lasted less than a week due to the intolerable ads, + they also gave far too much oxygen to the liebs & nuts, just with alternative vocal styles to the breathless hysterical OTTness of JFN, ha! i have one substantial anxiety about this. my logic is identical to that deployed by the rancid rwnjs, viz; wall yourself off from views you don't like, & consume only what you do. at that realisation i then began replaying the mitchell n webb nazis sketch in my head... 😳 #auspol #abc #sbs #news

"This comes at a time when journalism faces crises of sustainability for journalists and news – problems AI can as easily exacerbate as remedy." "If organizations choose to use AI to help produce journalism, a key question is how to handle ethics and concerns over quality." The Conversation: ABC will trial using AI for journalism.
