On 14 July 1975, Lateline aired an “interview” with four men and a teenage boy.
For nearly an hour, they admitted to:
• Grooming children with gifts
• Targeting broken families
• Lurking near schools for victims
• Abusing toddlers
And they laughed about it.
The host himself, Richard Neville, openly admitted to being a pederast.
Instead of exposing predators, he gave them a platform — joking and laughing alongside men who described how they groomed and abused boys.
This was broadcast on national radio.
One man bragged about keeping up to 12 boys “on rotation.”
Another said 12-year-olds could give “rational consent” to sex with men decades older.
ABC chairman Richard Downing, defended it publicly:
“In general, men will sleep with young boys… the community ought to know.”

“In general, men will sleep with young boys… the community ought to know.”
And now, 40 years later, we have all these very odd sexed up men dressed as women reading books to vulnerable young children in libraries.
How things have changed…
