ASIO issues ‘timely reminder of the threats our nation faces’ | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Peta Credlin says ASIO Director-General Mike Burgess’ “Annual Threat Assessment” was a “timely reminder of the threats our nation faces”.\n\nMs Credlin said living in a “genial country like Australia” it is “easy to think that we have no real enemies,” however “there's Islamist fanaticism” that “wants to kill all those who don't share their view of God”.\n\n“For two decades now, our security agencies have been monitoring the fanatics in our midst,” Mr Credlin said, and these agencies have been “very effective in preventing the kinds of mass terrorism that countries like Britain, Spain and India have been subjected to”.\n\n“We need to recognise that not everyone is as benevolent as we might be, and that not all governments have the goodwill towards others, that ours does,” she said.\n\n“We need to keep resourcing our security agencies. \n\n“We need to ensure that the online world does not remain the virtually ungoverned space that it currently is.”\n\nImage: News Corp Australia\n\n

BBC being 'out of touch' sounds 'terribly familiar' | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says the issues plaguing the BBC, such as it being “out of touch with mainstream concerns,” mirror similar issues facing Australia’s ABC.\n\nThe public British broadcaster is facing a proposal to scrap the compulsory licence fee which has funded it for decades, and instead replace it with an “opt-in subscription model”.\n\nA survey conducted last week in the UK found more than half of the respondents agreed with the abolition of the licensing fee, while 50 per cent believed it did not represent value for money.\n\nMr Kenny said there are plenty accusations of the BBC “losing touch with the mainstream as it obsesses with minority activism,” like its recent feature of a poem about the ‘struggles of getting a haircut as a non-binary person’.\n\nThe same qualities which represent the main gripes with the BBC, such as focusing on “its own niche issues” and “lacking a diversity of ideas,” sound “terribly familiar” to the arguments against the ABC.\n\nImage: Getty\n yes puppets have same masters & it ain't the taxpayers macsween_prue Chris Kenny is out of touch with not just concerns but reality. Tell him to stick to his audience of one Hey Chris How is bashing other news orgs working out for News Corp? Perhaps you might try doing some ACTUAL JOURNALISM

Mr Kenny said. \n\nImage: Getty \n Chris Kenny saying someone is uninformed. Rupert come on old man. That's so funny 😂. Why then, does kenny get 10% of their ratings and his market share is dwindling?
