Here we go again ... precisely.

You have extreme difficulty when it comes to weighing evidence. Your post is laden with ifs, suspicions and beliefs but you show no understanding of how broadcast regulations work, how legal precedent works or even how government and parliament works, especially in relation to the above.

Your beliefs are your own, and you're welcome and entitled to them. But in terms of taking this discussion forwards ... well, you simply aren't.
