With former Lateline host Maxine McKew and former weatherman Mike Bailey both leaving the ABC to run in Labor party seats against the government, the Chaser took it upon themselves to see who else they could recruit from the national broadcaster to run for government.

Starring Kerry O’Brien, Monica Attard, the cast of Play School, Antony Green, Myf Warhurst, Adam Spencer and Tony Jones, its a cavalcade of that left wing, liberal media destroying our country. Download the whole episode here.

Does this happen in other countries? Or is it an Australian specific thing. Is the looming threat of a popular show on a public broadcaster switching to a commercial network something that happens outside of Australia?

There’s been talk, albeit from A Current Affair that The Chaser’s War on Everything was being targeted by commercial networks to make the switch from the ABC. This video shows how The Chaser envisage their show might look on the Nine Network..

Hopefully its a pretty clear sign they have no intention to leave the ABC.

If you’re watching this show, we know your probably a typical latte sipping, ‘i love public broadcasting’ sort of person

No current affairs this week, but the Chaser’s War on Everything did delve into the seedy world of cable television to take a look at what $100 a month gets you from Foxtel. And although I am a ‘i love public broadcasting’ sort of person, I do pay $100 a month for cable, and can’t imagine television without it.

On a side note, a 15 year old has been forging infringement notices from the ABC and successfully getting clips of the Chaser’s War removed from YouTube. The SMH reports that the ABC has since had the videos reinstated and that they want “to get our content out there on as many platforms as possible, run by as many different operators as possible”. So, is the ABC saying I should post more Chaser videos here?

Read the email I got from YouTube below.
