Apparently SKY NEWS is from the devil and you must not watch it . Or you will go straight to Hell .
One of the reasons our public broadcaster ABC is failing to remain credible is clearly their failure to understand how we learn. Unlike most of us who test things and find out, they speculate and play with why questions, teaching their audience (sadly too our children) to enjoy cynicism, not the growing sense of confidence and certainty that we want each other to develop by having a truly broad education.
Without metanoia and letting the street experience talk to them (which Sky at its best does ) they confirm their immature status as mere reactionaries. misplacedconconcreteness.blogspot.com
Why, as well educated an audience as the ABC has, do they name call?
Why are the pews crying out - do not listen or you will be misled.
Why does SKY report what it does and why does ABC report what it does ? I don't know and I don't care to spend each night wondering, except SKY seeks wide and ABC is narrow casting . I still watch a bit of both.
Increasingly the ABC 's choice of what goes to air is blatantly THEIR choice and it is not worth watching unless you have time to unpick the news from the commentary and value adding adjectives and pictures they use - oh so well and so subtly . The Devil is subtle and sly . best we all get to know him/her . I want Aussie children to be robust and realistic in their thinking, not just simple and cynical.
Study fanaticism1.blogspot.com . It's a common disease at certain times in the life of the powerful. We all need more humility in accepting that we don't know much - that way ABC audiences would have learnt heaps more in the last few decades.
As an effective resilience planning scientist I know the dumbing down is a disaster to which our ABC has played its part.
Time for humility and respect for all authors !! You mainly get fanatical when you are losing it and the internet is taking over - not a bad thing ?esp when the ABC waste so much time/money writing it own dramas.
