Just watched the Insiders on the ABC.
There was a nano-second graphic depicting Australia wide energy prices with WA on $25 and SA on $79 dollars and other states at various multiples of the WA price, quite a shocking data set if anybody was allowed time to even read it!
I have known for a while that the eastern states businesses and media make extensive efforts to hide the WA/eastern states price disparity from the people in the east, but this subliminal data flick takes it to a whole new level.
This was soon followed by another bullshit graphic depicting how immigration shot up after COVID.
As immigration stopped virtually during COVID this is a completely misrepresentation and manipulative us of immigration data.
The decline of the ABC as a credible news source is complete!
Leni Riefenstahl will be pleased it has now become just another Murdoch clone.
Immigration did shoot up after COVID……
Just because it stopped for those years doesn’t mean that you get to “carry forward” those missing years numbers to add when the borders open up again lol. Net overseas migration is still significantly higher than pre-COVID.
