Politician alleges Sarah Ferguson, renowned figure from ABC, displays bias in their interaction
In the realm of Australian politics, the buzz has escalated after Sarah Ferguson, host of popular TV show 7.30, was accused of displaying a tinge of bias. Following an interview with Tim Wilson,Goldstein's freshly-elected Liberal Party member, Ferguson remarked, "We'll have to continue this conversation, it's a complex topic but I'm glad to have you back."
This cordial remark has ignited controversy, with critics promptly labeling Ferguson an LNP mouthpiece. Keith Sutherland, a recipient of an Order of Australia medal in 2021, was among those outraged, voicing his disapproval vehemently.
"The bias shown by our once great ABC Australia is absolutely disgusting," Sutherland exclaimed. "It's high time for Anthony Albanese to instigate some changes at the top and board."

Geoff Kitney, a former press gallery journalist, chimed in, adding fuel to the fire: "What an extraordinary thing for a senior ABC political journalist to say!" The controversy has inspired calls for Ferguson's dismissal, with one disgruntled Australian demanding, "It was appalling, she should be sacked." Another facetiously remarked, "Aha! Slip. She meant 'Glad to have your back.'"
Helen Allen posed an intriguing question, hinting at a double standard: "Wonder if Sarah Ferguson would be so quick out of the blocks to have Nicolette Boele on."
Last week, Boele emerged as the victor in the ultra-close Sydney seat of Bradfield, defeating the Liberal Party's Gisele Kapterian after a recount. Noteworthy, Ferguson went on to have Boele on the show just hours later.
"Tonight is your night, Nicolette Boele, congratulations - lots to talk about in the future but for now, thank you very much for coming in," Ferguson complimented the Teal candidate upon her triumph.
In response to our attempts to reach out for Ferguson's comment, Daily Mail Australia remains tight-lipped on the matter.
