Government at Work - Australia, Bitten by a Flithy Dog
Don't laugh. This COULD be coming to America...
L. Brent Bozell III reports at CNSnews.com:
"Subsidizing sleaze apparently is not shocking to Australia. Siobhan Duck of Melbourne’s Herald Sun reports “A television comedy about a bong-smoking dog that has sex with a cat and a teddy bear has received $1.5 million of federal and state taxpayers’ money.”
Wouldn’t you be so proud if you were a taxpayer Down Under? The federal agency Screen Australia contributed $400,000 to the first season and $580,000 to the second. The state agency Film Victoria contributed $210,000 for the first set of shows and $294,048 towards the second."
