ABC not far enough Left

ABC News carbon-price coverage commences on 18 February:
The Federal Government has indicated that it will be months before a deal on carbon pricing is reached.
Today the ABC updates:
Prime Minister Julia Gillard says the Government's carbon price scheme will be rolled out from July 2012.
Research-averse PP boy Jeremy Sear nonetheless reckons the ABC is taking sides in publishing the opposition reaction. Hey, the government pays the bills so the ABC should promote the government line.

Update Lefty Sear will no be aghast at the ABC's latest:
Opposition Leader Tony Abbott has lashed out at the [carbon price] plan, which he says is a historic betrayal of the Australian people.

"Nothing is more fake than making a promise to the Australian people before an election and breaking it after the election," he said.

Business groups have a long list of questions following Ms Gillard's announcement and say there are huge gaps to be filled in.

They are concerned the Multi-Party Climate Change Committee has not set a 2020 target for emissions cuts.
Oh my God! People have questions!

Just to be clear here...

When the ABC exhibits nothing but left wing bias, it's neutral.

When the ABC reports neutrally, or reports an opinion by the opposition, it Fox News.

That's gotta be a first on any blog, anywhere, anytime: PP commenters actually think the ABC is the equivalent of Fox News.

What's the bet, the left will be far more concerned with the "lies" of EX Prime Ministers (one in particular) than the lies of the CURRENT Prime Minister?
