Guest Speakers: Senator Alex Antic - Federal Senator for South Australia, Liberal Party & Sinclair Davidson - Professor of Institutional Economics RMIT University.                                                      When our family, freedom and faith beliefs as Christians are under attack by the publicly funded ABC, we need to voice our concerns in the public arena. The ABC has a special duty to report news and topical issues accurately in a fair-minded, balanced manner. Instead, the ABC has become a vehicle for promoting anti-Christian causes that raise a strong suspicion of a moralistic witch-hunt mentality. Should it be privatised to better reflect true community views?Hear from SA Senator, Senator Alex Antic, and Sinclair Davidson, Professor of Institutional Economics RMIT University.
