Lots of anti abc trolls about today🙄

Islamic terrorism against Christians during Easter. As opposed to “some buildings got bombed”. You guys are disgusting and your bias is clearly showing.

Gee Whiz, it’s almost like this really doesn’t mean anything to the ABC unlike the Christchurch shooting which as it stands currently had a quarter of the death toll.

I like how you spent a total of 5 minutes of airtime on this and then moved on whereas with the Notre Dame you spent hours of blanketed coverage, often repeated when no new details had emerged

Why don't you report Suicide Bombers that targeted there attacks on Christians? You know, the same people that did 'some things' in the USA on 9/11. NEVER FORGET!

Abc coverage of this tragedy is really showing their bias after Christchurch the abc was declaring there is a right wing terrorist emergency and all people not from the far left were to blame while now seeing how they are reporting this coordinated attack with no blame directed

The bombings were aimed at Christians not just the buildings. On a religiously significant day. Your double standard of reporting is showing. hacks

will now explain how the qoran sanctions the murder of non muslims and will have an in depth analysis of Jihad...

When will the main stream media report the following connection to these events?

Sri Lanka bombings LIVE: 138 killed in Easter Catholic church explosions, 400 injuredSri Lanka's prime minister has called an emergency meeting in the wake of the suspected Easter Sunday terror attacks So who's organising capital city marches to show unity thoughts and prayers for those that were killed and injured in terrorist attack? Anyone? smh Au. P.M. should call a meeting in this Country after hearing the neglect by politicians aired by Bill Crews on ABC News Radio about 1pm this Easter Sunday? Is there really that many women and kids and others forced to live and die here Scott? In Cars everywhere Not the Lodge Ay? tyrelle123 Obviously there will be global condemnation of the ideology behind these atrocities, much akin to the wall to wall Christchurch attack on anyone right of Gandhi
