From SBS:

Social media users have reacted with disbelief after Christoper Pyne started a petition to save the ABC in his home town.

Federal minister Christopher Pyne took to Twitter to beg the ABC not to shut down its South Australian TV production unit.

“The board must reassure South Australians that the local TV production house of the ABC will remain in South Australia,” Mr Pyne’s petition says.

Earth to Chris, we can see you!
