The Leigh Sales interview with Michael Kroger and Paul Howes on 20/8/2010 lacked balance in one very serious aspect.
We heard the Labor point of view (Howes) and the Coalition's (Kroger), but both of them attacked the Greens about them potentially holding the balance of power in both the House of Representatives and the Senate.
We did not get to hear the Greens point of view on this. Such unbalanced coverage is likely to impact the Greens vote during this election, particularly among those voters who have not yet made up their mind (up to 1 in 10 apparently).
A spokesperson from the Greens should have been represented in this discussion for fairness and balance. This segment was not accurate, impartial or objective in its coverage of the Greens.
I wish to lodge this as a formal complaint.
