Malcolm Turnbull says Sky News voice channel would be 'anger-tainment'

The former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull says he has serious concerns about Sky Newsā€™ plans to launch a new channel dedicated to covering the Indigenous voice to parliament referendum 24 hours, seven days a week.
Turnbull has told ABC Radio he believes Sky News and Fox News in the US have the goal to ā€œrile people upā€:

It is not a referendum about the Voice, which is a mere mechanism.

It is a referendum about agreeing that first nations people have important things to say to the nation about how they should be treated.

Our communities are run by bureaucrats who control Indigenous lives. Thatā€™s why Iā€™m asking you to give us our voice theguardian.com/australia-news
This is the fundamental argument for . Effective policy decisions are made with people, not to them

Sky News is opening a channel dedicated specifically to the voice, so more awful takes on that topic.

Sky will be offering this for free to the regions via free to air TV, poisoning the discussion in regional Australia and furthering a divide between regional Australia and the coasts.

I absolutely respect the argument of treaty now and not recognising the referendum in favour of sovereignty; Sky News and their gang are pushing an absolute lie that this creates a higher class of Australian citizen, and I'll never respect that.

The is speaking with forked tongue; they criticise commercial donations for the 'yes' campaign, yet never criticise donations from mining organisations. I will be buying more from and while ever they support .

Getting a point of view from Tony Abbott on reminds us all how bad he and his crowd were in government. He is still an apologist for colonial crimes and for generations of disadvantage at the hands of governments just like the one he led.
Make no mistake, the is keen to protect those who have benefited from the denial of First Peoples' rights. The 's stance against is mostly about being contrarian for the sake of simply being the opposition and I reckon it will backfire. They deserve to be out of government for a very long term. I will now spend even more at knowing they support a just cause.

@GrumpyPenguin @DropBear @peterrelph @Jakra the problem has been that with every change of political leadership (and there have been many) bodies are disbanded, new bureaucracies are created topdown & the wheel is reinvented.
Because (until the last LNP lot)it flew under the radar, maybe the best example of the long term consequences Indigenous self determination was the Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Arts Board of the old Australia Council. In 1973 it was the first all-Indigenous national arts body. Unlike the other Oz Co boards they refused to give individual artist grants, but bought new art that people made. When no one in Australia wanted to see it, they took the art (including Papunya) on international tours. And that is why the multi-million dollar Aboriginal art market has an international focus. They funded the workshops that turned into Bangara, which they also supported. And so much more. Self determination works

Not surprised that the grub who walked out of the apology to the Stolen Generations is opposing The Voice. However Iā€™m shocked that heā€™s now apparently getting away with his ā€œreasonableā€ call for a referendum on recognition in the Constitution, which heā€™s only pushed now referendum bill was passed (which he supported). Deliberately muddying the waters and too cute by half
