@anniedundun I agree to a point but I'd prefer the ABC and government policy re. culture was just focused on funding more good stuff, come what may. If they were always chasing hits that sell a million toys I'm not sure that would be ideal, even if the funds are great.

@egadheg It just sucks that it isn’t within the culture of the ABC or government to take a chance on good aussie content.

@anniedundun I haven't heard that. They were in a 3-party negotiation with the BBC and they got the AU broadcast rights. I think everyone looks at this with the benefit of knowing what a mega hit it is, they'd be rightly smashed if they tried to own all merch rights just in case.

@egadheg The ABC didn’t even enter the negotiations. I think it’s worth discussing why that is poor form.

@gearside The ABC would have lost to the global player with much deeper pockets and established distribution within the USA and Europe

@declanf I also saw Brian Munich and Friends that same run and always remember the Sting song when Giant Steps comes on the radio. I was lucky enough to get thrown a t-shirt that said "Brian Munich and Friends only listen to Magic 693". Was a great show.

I suppose we shouldn't be surprised he can't hold two thoughts simultaneously.

@thebigjohnnyd I didn't know she'd shared it during the strike, that's scabbing

@rohan_connolly Well there is reporting that she did and she shared the articles on her social media during the strike, which in itself is scabbing

Leigh Sales crossing the picket line after months of not writing any articles with a piece on the Kyle and Jackie O show is someone who's scabbing purely for the love of the game

@thebigjohnnyd I noticed it and thought there's a fair chance she filed it before 11am Wednesday and no-one had time to cut its incredible length down. The scab editors likely just ran it without any editing

Iran has 10 days to acquiesce, and they'd better do that within 15 days or the 30 day deadline will expire, leaving them only 60 days to respond.

I have long been a believer in the social media apps bugging our conversations (don't @ me non-believers) but after a week travelling Instagram seems to now be able to read my mind.

Hey @abcnews, there is no need for use the weazel words “appearing to show” for videos that *clearly* show police punching protesters. Hidimg behind such qualifiers is not balance, it’s cowardice

Just read that Jon Kudelka died, and even though this place doesn't deserve its status as the best place for me to remember him, it's inherited that honour. He was a great person who I never met, who was among our best cartoonists and posters. I will reread the tea towel tonight.

Brilliant from Marina Hyde as always — just angrier today. Every word hits the nail on the head with the force of ten sledgehammers. What a wonderful writer she is. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

I refuse to believe there is anything Sam Groth's new employer needs him to do which can't wait till November.
