The Australian public has won a democratic victory over the political and media machine by forcing the leaders debate to be televised 1 hour earlier due to the popularity of the Masterchef final.
As Julia Gillard said without any sense of irony on the ABC 7.30 Report, 21 July:
“Australia is a great country you get to watch what you want on TV....’’
Fiona Patten commented:
“Your hypocrisy is duly noted Julia. Your party is the censorship party. Only the ASP has the ‘’recipe” for a straightforward classification system across film, TV and internet.”
