ABC, the national broadcaster, is taking action against the right-wing One Nation party for using the popular character Bluey in a cartoon that shows the character ramming politicians with a car. This is considered a breach of intellectual property rights. The ABC will send a cease and desist letter to One Nation, which could lead to further action. The use of Bluey in this cartoon is seen as shocking and disrespectful, and the ABC is taking steps to protect its intellectual property.
