That Ch 9 show will be just another example of the modern media and so called "journalism"  .

The TV equivalent of radio shock-jocks. See Andrew Bolt  .

Sorry, in Australia, in our CONSTITUTION, we have a freedom to practice which ever religion we like. THAT is Australian.

If people don't like Islam, they can go find a country that only allows Christianity.
