This has been doing the rounds in the email today.

Nothing in the news yet but this went out live here in Aus this morning during the rates review and finance news.

The guy opens 3 pictures, has a quick look around before realising he is on TV and shutting it down. I should imagine he is sat at home now wondering what he should tell his missus when she gets home!

Surely they couldn't ban porn! That would be unthinkable.

I did read about that. Is it really happening? Are there going to be workarounds? Who elects these tts anyways?

For years as I was growing up there, our parents used to whinge about how long it would be before Australia became part of China thanks to immigration levels at the time. Now it seems their own government is turning it into China for them.

If you think Im being picky, look up anti-association laws.

Call me cynical, but I reckon it was a ploy to get more viewers for that channel's news program.

He's not switching between porn and charts, as the YouTube vid says, he's looking at attachments to an e-mail in Outlook.

'Porn' suggests something much worse than a nude girl.

yes He does a slight half look to his right (big screen showing live TV perhaps) before starting it.

The Youtube vid suggests that he may have been fired.

I think it would be a good suggestion to petition the news company.

FFS, it looked like a bit of 80's erotica to me rather than some squirting spam butterfly, girl on girl action.

Our parent whinging or the immigration ploicy at the time?

Asians bring a hard work ethic, are very high academic achievers and often have money to bring with them. Aswell as young Asians who come to study in Australia who can pay their fees up front, meaning they are obviously VERY welcome in Australian universities (students who can afford to fly their favourite vehicle tuner over from Japan to tune their Skylines, for instance) Not to mention fulfilling criteria on hardship and asylum seeking. But there was a boom of Asians (Vietnemese particularly) in Perth in the 80s, which lead to some dissent.

It was a big part of growing up in WA. Standard jokes: How do you know if you were robbed asians? Your cats gone and your homework is done, "We grew here, you flew here" etc etc

Its easy to view Australians as racist. But Australia's core value is fairness above all else. In these modern times, minority groups or certain ethnic peoples have claims to various benefits or privelidges through the Australian governemnt, that they dont have to work for. This is seen as "unfair" and hence its easy for a whole group of people to be resented by white Australians who do work. How quickly they forget some of the laughable jobs they get paid silly money to do, as negotiated by their "fair go" unions.

The issue of race in Australia is a subject no forum has the bandwidth for.


Nowadays, I would say the Asian and white Australian communities are very well integrated. Interracial relationships are seen as the norm for instance and "getting a chinky" is as much a part of Australian food culture as curry is here.

Classic. A quote from Macquarie in the Metro this morning suggests that the guy is facing a disciplinary. They are great pics... smile
