Part 6/9:
The underlying issue, critics claim, is that the ABC’s culture is dominated by a "groupthink" aligned with progressive ideology, leading to a form of bias that is resistant to challenge.

The idea is that the ABC’s structure and culture lean toward supporting big government, collectivist policies, and progressive social views, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
