Not too sure if posted but the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation), one of Australia's crown owned and biggest news networks did a story on GamerGate during the 7.30 report

It was already posted and discussed a few [url=http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1421478&p=46470117&viewfull=1#post46470117]pages back[/url]
It was very biased as it did not even consider the pro-GG side and let itself be another outlet for Briana Wu's victimhood.
watched the entire abc thing and they didn't speak to one person on the opposition (as expected), mind you hex seemed to take a very neutral approach to this which isn't surprising but I'm surprised they didn't even interview bajo

[quote]BEN O'BRIEN, HOST, BIG HEAD MODE: Diversity has come to games and it's sort of the last cry of the people who don't want that change to come, hoping they can top it, but, like, it's already here. You know, you look around here and you can already see all the different games made by all kinds of different people. In the long run, Gamergate's going to go away and women are going to stay around, so it's easy to see who's going to win.[/quote]
[quote]DISCLOSURE: Ben O'Brien also works casually at the ABC.[/quote]
So he got his heavyhanded opinion as a quote and an article at the same time.
if you lot want to I can go find the contact details to the ABC, the ABC deals with journalistic complaints seriously and something could come out of it, the report was heavily in favour of the anti side.
ABC is supposed to take a non-bias approach, not a heavily anti influence cry baby report approach

If they are getting a considerable number of complaints sent to them in regards to how bias the report was, they might actually look into doing another report with a more neutral viewpoint on it. Either that or release an apology for how biased they were with their reporting.
I think they would aim for a neutral report or probably tell GoodGame to keep reporting on it and have the 7.30 report focus on "real" issues
But knowing the ABC, probably both would happen
I just don't know why they couldn't contact totalbiscuit or fucking boogie2988
Here is the report form for anyone wishing to submit a complaint to the ABC
[url]http://www.abc.net.au/contact/contactabc.htm[/url]
To complain about the report in question, put these in the first 4 forms/options.

7:30 Report
12/11/14 or 12th of November, 2014

I've just send in a strongly worded, but polite letter through their contact forums. I tried to dispel that notion they had that we're all angry white males. Provided the twitter links to basedmom and told them i'm sure totalbiscuit would love to appear on their show if he was asked. Although i probably shouldn't said that.
It's been received, now we wait!

Done.
Sent a complaint off to the ABC in regards to the Gamergate report.
Hopefully they make a mention of all the complaints on tonights 730 Report or at least respond to the people making the complaints.

This explains so goddamn much.
Okay on the path of ABC we forgot to mention one of the best ABC programs that can really help us with this
Media Watch
Send a tip off to them about the 7:30 report along with evidence and what not about how they got the report wrong. Media Watch do intensive reporting to try and raise if any report regardless of network or publication was in the wrong or got it wrong
It's our best bet for more recognition, tip offs can be sent here

I love how Brianna Wu, etc, leave their homes because of Internet death threats, saying they don't feel safe, and anybody who questions it is immediately branded a misogynist, but when Milo receives a fucking [I]syringe[/I] in the post people just brush it off as 'Eh he was probably faking it' with no real reasoning behind that.

Again, sorry for bringing up more not directly video game related things (even though this does have some relevancy). This is a video by a self-proclaimed anti-feminist woman by the name of Karen Straughan. In the video she talks about Anita Sarkesian, Academics, Social Justice, misogyny-blaming and just in general the problems with feminism today. Watch the previous video I posted, if you haven't already as it kind of connects.

These videos may not have anything to do with Gamergate, but they both made me fully understand the kind of people that oppose Gamergate, and it's something I'd not actually understood before. I'm really interested in this kind of stuff now and would like to know more about these people and why they're so political where politics doesn't need to be involved.

I knew these people were toxic, but I never really understood that they're so toxic that they have even toxic'd the word toxic. Thanks for sharing these videos.
