Andrew Bolt's Blog, 1/8/15; Rules don't count if your white and Bronwyn Bishop however they do if your a student or unionist; The ABC gives Climate sceptics their representational time if not more given there is 97% consensus among scientists;Waleed Aly Makes Bolt look second rate yet again;
As far as Bolt is concerned History didn't begin until September 1959. Furthermore History is what Andrew Bolt wants it to be and not a shared construction of various perspectives. History is always the tale of those in authority and not that of lesser men. It's why Bolt is so insistent that his conviction for vilification be written out of the court records. Bolt accepts revision of history but only from the top down. What needs to be written out is any concept of systemic racism in this country. What's more it needs to be supported culturally because it needs to be ingrained in the minds of our children.
Bolt actually believes in the integrity of authority and the written history would have openly reflected the slavery and power wielded by those in power at the time. However it wasn't written in those terms. In other words Bolt believes the injustice done to him in our courts needs revision. however denies any such acts were done to Aborigines. Whatever incidents occurred were due to the Aborigines themselves. Aborigines were paid slave wages on cattle stations and their wages withheld or stolen never happened. Children stolen never happened. Everything done to and for Aborigines was done out of the kindness of Christian morals welfare and for a reason . If an Aborigine says otherwise they are lying and/or being racists.
Link Accusations of smearing really are a matter of the pot calling the kettle black. Bolt should reexamine what it was Adam Goodes actually said to the media and not what Bolt pretends he said so he feels justified in running his racist argument. Nobody regarded as professional in media other than some within News Corp support anything he has to say. So to that extent Bolt is a media loser.
However Walled Aly simply shows Bolt distorts anything and everything Adam in fact said to the media. That's what makes him a racist he attributes whatever he wants to Adam Goodes all false to run reverse racist clap trap. Shaming Australia in doing so. Had he been working for the Packers Bolt would have been long gone.
Link Andrew Bolt, Link Andrew Bolt Link Andrew Bolt. But where is Tony Abbott? Too busy defending Bronny?
Reasoned thinking is drawn from informed science and when 97% of scientists researching global climate change agree on the existence of warming representational attention needs to be given it. No peer- reviewed data has indicated the opposite so giving undue attention to the 3% who offer little more than polemic is a waste of time. The 3% are mentioned and they are given more than the media balance due to them. Andrew Bolt seems to believe they deserve 50% of the media stage rather than their representational amount. Bolt's call for balance is totally fatuous given he hides the reality of scientific 97% consensus whenever he can.
"That capture of Media Watch by global warming believers continues. Consider the current host, Paul Barry."
The hiding of information by Bolt is so extensive that he refuses to admit the latest findings by NOAA which he treats in the same fashion as the ABC as some biased psuedo scientific organization and not the world respected organization it is. Bolt continues to echo a 18 year hiatus in warming exists. It has been shown to be wrong for the past 25 years. Bolt unfortunately has a static relationship with the concept of scientific method and ignores the latest findings because they don't suit him..
"A quick check of Barry’s Twitter feed shows he shares the climate
alarmist and renewable-at-any-cost stance of his predecessor (along with
a healthy dose of Murdochophobia)."
The Murdochian obsession with the 3 % ers of climate science are given balanced attention by all media with the exception of News Corp that purely takes an advocacy role for the fossil fuel industry. Balance in this case is the 3%+ attention given the sceptics by the ABC. In fact they get more than 3% attention so one might consider them over represented. Any more attention one might believe the ABC was promoting the sceptics.
Link NewsCorp's Australian D Shanahan. But where is Abbott defending Bishop
The only thing Tony Abbott has done in the past 5 weeks is to defend Bronwyn Bishop which has yet again upset the party faithful and his image as leader. Expense cuts are obviously no longer a priority for Abbott and it will be Tax cuts from here on in. However given 52% of taxes are paid by the top 10% that can only mean cuts for the rich.
Link News Corp paywall. But where is Tony Abbott?
Here is right wing justice & logic. Peter Slipper was found innocent so it follows Bronwyn Bishop is as well. It also follows if your second in line in a gang bang rape case and first got off you also can't be found guilty. As long as there is a precedent and others got away with it all is ok.
"The helicopter reference is just snark. The fact is that they charged the public to go to a party fundraiser."
Link the ABC But where is Tony Abbott?
Who are you to charge? Pick anyone in the crowd and charge them as long as they are under 25? Pull a union out of a hat and charge them? Bolt takes as gospel that a banner is all that's required as proof of guilt and of course some broken glass. If Bronwyn Bishop is called innocent said to be innocent then so are these students. The glass door reference is just a "snark"
Given we can't trust anything News Corp prints we can't take them as the leading authority on who to blame? We are lucky if News Corp provides us with 8% truth in any edition. Bolt justice it would seem is not equal to all. Christopher Pyne might be the suitable person to bill to for turning up and provoking a melee. He knew before hand he wasn't welcome. With that knowledge the police who tried to prevent citizens entering a public space should have suggested Pyne stay away.
If Bronwyn Bishop is innocent and allowed to break rules, commit fraud and do what she likes simply because others have done the same before her. How is it this doesn't apply students or unionists. The revolving glass door is just a "snark"
"The helicopter reference is just snark. The fact is that they charged the public to go to a party fundraiser."
