Foriegn Correspondent - again excellent stories both esp Jane Hutchison on the Zimbabwe situtaion through the eyes of an author . . Your professional reporting is a welcome weekly change from the arrogant authorship and interference too common across public broadcasting services.

Its easy to be critical but the ABC is still our favourite switch on and has had some beauties . Mind you Frost dramas are very competitive. - the americans in africa series (powerful look in the mirror culture stuff , the CBC doco "The Year of the Hunter" -outstanding TV . Liked the war series too . More please at that time slot. Foreign Correspondent is generally outstanding and not an option time for the video switch .

The glass house leaders are stale; indulging in predictable ways their own 30 year fanatisies on sex politics and religion ( views about as deep as they were when they were children) . The young girl on the program can read the script without half a brain - anti authority , big on sex . Dave is certainly an asset but i won't tell you why - time to give someone else a go .

All very well for the Treasurer to give the impreesion of Father Christmas . Are Sundays Insiders and the ABC commentators doing more than barking at his heels and drinking in his favourite recipes for growth . The exploitation machine is not obviuos to many of you who to trust that government is business. The confusion explains the complacency .

Compass special on FF .Considering most journos hardly know whats happening in churches I thought the producer and his team did a good job of reporting what they saw and heard. About time . after all there is more to Dibley than the reactionaries leftists playing some ineffective and discredited old political games.
