The Daily ABC Show

COMMENT: Just noticed that The Daily Show with Jon Stewart is shortly to appear on ABC2. The program blurb reads...
"Join Jon Stewart and a team of correspondents as they bring you the news like you've never seen it before - unburdened by objectivity, journalistic integrity or even accuracy."

No Objectivity! No Journalistic integrity! No Accuracy! Sounds like a certain news service I know.

Aim of ABC NEWS WATCH

In a diversifying media landscape news editors face an increasingly difficult challenge reviewing the work of reporters under their supervision. Inevitably some mistakes, errors and substandard articles slip past their critical eyes.

The simple aim of ABC NEWS WATCH is to publicise the errors, omissions, and substandard reports produced by the News service and related entities of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). In doing so we hope to provide an independent check or audit on ABC news articles and in doing so improve the standard of ABC news reporting. After all it's our ABC.

We acknowledge and pay respect to the actions, sacrifice, wisdom, traditions, mistakes and curiosity of our ancestors. Their collective efforts over centuries helped evolve our western civilisation, giving birth to the liberal society that makes this website possible.
