ABC Host Raf Epstein Smears Thousands of Victorians — No Response to Complaints ... (Link to full article and reel)

On 8 September, I lodged a formal complaint after ABC host Raf Epstein dismissed a lawful petition to cancel the Daniel Andrews statue, signed by thousands of Victorians, as “conspiracy theorist rhetoric.”

Epstein made the smear on 3rd September during his taxpayer-funded ABC radio program.  The petition was proper Parliamentary procedure: verified, tabled, and debated in Victoria’s Legislative Council.

Epstein owes petitioners an on-air apology. Until he does, his comments remain a smear against thousands of Victorians, the Parliament, the democratic process, and the right to petition government.

The only fair outcome is for Mr Epstein to step aside until this matter is resolved, with an unreserved on-air apology to every Victorian who exercised their democratic right to sign the petition.

Stay tuned for updates ...
