Auntie Gets Cheeky

The ABC must be feeling confident. Or confident enough to get cheeky in any case. Last night the ABC trotted out its goods in a funding pitch at Parliament House, at which Communications Minister Stephen Conroy made an encouraging speech.

Among the showings was a clip from the Hollowmen, that anticipated how the funding bid might be decided. Good for a chuckle. Go here. The preview is number two on the slideshow display.

UPDATE: ALso available on YouTube here.

    And then they followed it up with the most pitiful interview with Mark Scott in AM on Thursday morning. Just so soft, it was pure advertorial. See http://www.abc.net.au/am/content/2008/s2513808.htm

    Too right Marc. The guy is soft AND a sleaze. What’s he doing in that job?
