    Default ABC presenter savaged for 'disrespecting Anzacs'

    ABC presenter Yassmin Abdel-Magied has been savaged on social media after suggesting Australians should spare a thought for those on Manus Island and in Syria instead of the Anzacs.



    Typical of this lot... what a disgusting attitude.

    One-way ticket out!

    As much as I detest this attitude, her freedom to sprout her bullshit is what my old man fought for....AND it's what is threatened by this bitch and her bigoted friends who hide behind laws like 18c...

    They want the right to speak with complete freedom, but deny it to those they don't like...OR don't agree with.

    Sorry...ranting a bit!....

    I would suggest that she would be well advised to pull her head in and, quietly depart these fair shores.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    The ABC won't sack her. She wasn't cleaning her fingernails on air.

    And the ABC backs her.....why am I not surprised.

    And it's another Australia hating setup by the ABC and Tony Jones too....another huge surprise.

    Once upon a time I was a devoted ABC listener, however over the last few years the ABC has just become a radical left wing, global warming brain washing service as far as I am concerned.

    Don't think have heard a ABC broadcast of any kind for a long time. Could not be bothered listening to the garbage that gets sprouted on the ABC.

    As for that muslim presenter the sooner she is sacked and some excuse found to deport her the better. Citizenship or not.

    I've signed the petition too. Normally i would support her right to free speech whilst condemning her comments. Not this time. Activists have cost a number of people their jobs recently for comments far less offensive and even for simple association with a group they don't like. And, of course, speakers and film screenings have been stopped, hotels, cinemas and other venues threatened and businesses bullied. often to the applause of the ABC and their presenters. What's good for the goose ....

    I rarely spare them a thought. When I do that thought is "Why the #### haven't they been sent home yet."

    It's starting to look like we'll just get rid of this lot or at least most of them before Dollar Bill Shorten gets in and opens the floodgates again. Not that Malcolm wouldn't like to himself if he thought he could get away with it.

    The other worrying thing are the leaked plans to strengthen 18c if the ALP get in. I would give my vote to anyone who opposes it, but although the coalition SAY they do, they have shown that they are gutless and haven't kept that promise.

    It took only a day or two for Fairfax to play the racist card......even the ABC didn't go there...

    Yeah... racist is quite correct.... but against the ANZAC men and women.

    I don't give a rats about who said it... regardless of her gender, colour, race, religion, whatever.... what she said was disrespectful, then needed to have it pointed out to her that it was disrespectful.

    I am quite sure she knew exactly what she was saying, but just tried to weasel her way out of the situation by deleting part of her post.

    The ABC is just as bad for backing her.

    Anyone who had any knowledge of what ANZAC Day is all about, should not be trying to 'use' its meaning for any other purpose, which she clearly did.... intentionally.
