News Corporation employs Right-Wing Broadcasters providing them with a platform ensuring the inequality of speech. Their Social Media Platforms not only advocate conservative, and extreme right-wing wing views. They monitor out most opposing opinions which they are entitled to do. However, they also simply lie when they say they provide an arena for fair and balanced discussion in a no-spin zone. They don't it's all spin.

Andrew Bolt's Blog,10/9/15; Getting facts Right; Bolt is the ultra scaremonger liar; Bolt's repetitive irrational logic at work; We need to be more sepratist and anti EU; Misguided truth to blame some only; Germany surrenders to poverty which is god's gift;
Links Managing editor Daily Telegraph Guess what Climate denier.
"These days your donations are also funding Oxfam’s assault on the
Australian coal and fossil-fuel sectors, a sure-fire route to reduced
living standards both in Australia and its key trading partners, such as
India."
At no time had we heard from India or PM Modi begging Australia for coal. We have heard on the other hand India's intention is to stop importing coal. The only denials coming from PM Abbott and the Fossil Fuel Industries of Australia.
Apparently Tony Thomas has something against Oxfam. However he seems oblivious to the fact that Syria's worst drought 2006 -2011 changed the demographic of farming in the country entirely relocating whole farming populations off the land and driving them into city areas. Syria lost 60% of it's capacity to produce food. When peaceful protests started in Daraa against the government which provided no assistance they were dealt with so harshly it became the trigger for the civil war which we ignored until now. It's origins a climatic crisis and the displacement of people. Climate refugees that Tony Thomas has chosen to simply ignore.
Like Bolt Thomas takes figures based on the accelerated rate of warming at that time. A considerable amount has been achieved to reduce that rate. Consequently Bolt and Thomas refuse to take in the dynamic nature of global science and expect some sort magic to come true. They complain because predictions made some 20 years ago havent eventuated. For them science of yesteryear needs to be the predictor of today without any variables in between time. Their expectations simply show they have a feeble notion of what science in fact is. How often has science raised funds for research and failed? For these two News Corp whiz kids all it means is science is a second rate source of knowledge more a false religion than the best methodology we have to understand the world around us.
Yes Oxfam recieved $$ and yes they outsource fundraising. Is Thomas suggesting they are fraudsters among charities and really just enrich themselves. How is it the information Thomas collected to slag them off was so readily available and published?
Bolt is so disappointed with Tony Abbott his most Charismatic leader who we have never met. The leader that shows him up for who he really is. A Murdoch puppet trying to do the impossible polish a turd.If only Baird could lead the LNP Bolt could lay back and read his art catalogs and dream.
Bolt loves accusations by innuendo & threat in order to create fear. Europe is being "overrun" and "invasion" is occurring by "illegals".
What Bolt doesn't do is report that if Germany takes 800,000 refugees it would be 1% of the German population and many rural German towns like Australian ones are ready to welcome them. Sweden already does that 1%. The population of Iceland are volunteering to take 3.3%. However Tony Abbott for domestic political reasons maintains we are "the most generous country in the world". Just as he tell us we are the most active in its RET targets. The Canning by election is near so these unashamed lies are his tools of trade.
Having been internationally regarded as a pariah against Muslim asylum seekers Abbott will tell Canning we are the best and we will be assured to be kept safe by being the only country in the world to override any decisions the UN makes and it won't be about who are the most needy. Of course he won't be able to tell us who why or how ASIO staff sent will make those decisions for us.
Given that the Australian electorate has been told for the past 2 years how dangerous Australian Muslims are and that the poll taken by the LNP shows Canning is now definitely anti Muslim even though never having met any, Abbott will let it be known we will reject Muslims wherever we can and take Christians wherever possible. We certainly will keep bombing them and creating 12000 more than to replace the ones we have been forced to take.
Labor and Unions are in bed together according to Andrew Bolt. But he then can't seem to explain why there are strikes if they are so close. Bolt takes the ambit claims to press his point. However the fact is far simpler and not so complicated. But you will never hear it from Bolt. Even Rupert Murdoch isn't in favor of this situation because he realizes it in itself is poor economic management.Australia’s rich are getting richer. Everyone else is stagnating
" The debate of inequality generally rests on whether it is OK for
inequality to increase so long as everyone’s incomes rise. The “rising
tide lifts all boats” argument worked well during the boom, but not any
more." Greg Jericho
Tony Abbott is re branding it to The Export Agreement I wonder why. Free Trade isn't quite what it is and Andrew Bolt makes no attempt to explain what has actually been said. What we have here is an intended "failure to communicate".
1 The ALP is not against ChAFTA it is for it. However it wants to know why 10+ occupations no longer require to be skill tested. Bolt certainly doesn't offer an answer. 457 visas have been abused by Australian Corporations why wont they be by transnationals. 7/11 a case in point
2 Mega dairies in Victoria are about to employ Chinese dairies. Don't Australians know how to milk cows?
3 The ALP wants these questions answered in the public domain. It's a reasonablerequest given unemployment at 6.3% is on the rise.
The most trusted media in the country and Bolt is asking why our PM is on it? Look what News Corp has done for Donald Trump Mr Abbott we to can do it for you. You are ours and we are yours don't stray.
We'd never ask these irrelevant questions we'd only provide opportunity for you to be listened to" "Let’s quickly run through some other issues, Prime Minister,
starting with the economy. When Labor left office, unemployment was 5.8
per cent; it’s now 6.3 per cent. Growth was 2.5 per cent; it’s now two
per cent. The Australian dollar was 92 cents; it’s now around 70 cents.
The budget deficit was $30 billion when you took office and now it’s $48
billion. How do you explain to the Australian people that you were
elected promising, in your words, to fix the budget emergency, yet in
fact, Australia’s economic position has worsened under your leadership?…Leigh Sales
" First item of business for the Abbott Government if re-elected is to
reform an ABC too big and too partisan for a healthy democracy. The
reform I have in mind is best carried out with an axe."
This has little to do about journalism it's to do about business and Rupert Murdoch wanting the best parts of our independent organization news and information. Screw the cultural stuff. That's too expensive. It's about privatization. How is it that Andrew Bolt really makes no issue of the fact that the largest investor in in News Corp is Muslim? Apparently business transcends all the problems Bolt advocates Islam creates. Is there something hypocritical here?? Objective reporting: we need it more than ever
Maybe Bolt is suggesting we deport the indigenous population of Australia he would dearly love to see Lakemba and Dandenong disappear. Unemployment at 40% maybe part of the problem. I'm sure there are places like Sheparton and Bendigo where communities are fare more integrated . But then Bolt doesn't search those out dies he. He pays global attention to exceptional areas areas that prove Islam is 'guilty' but then that's Bolt's misguided notion of rational thinking.
Bolt is simply referencing the right wing of political thought as he does here. That
" “Various elitist political groups - hidden behind the facade of
scientists, academics or quasi moral authorities - are presented as a
norm of the public opinion,” Klaus wrote."
Except Bolt in no way calls these groups elite in Australia merely the voice of the tribal left who need to be removed from their positions of influence. In other words policed hounded out and sacked. Some thing Bolt can't be seen to overemphasize in democracy. Religion has little to do with Bolt's motives he has an obsessive need for for not even law and order but control. It shows entirely in his reaction by the British people wanting Bibi arrested as a war criminal. Little to do with Religion all to do with politics and the use of religion to justify actions. What Bolt fails to mention is the crowd present isn't predominantly Muslim but British and British born.
"Today, outside the gates of the Prime Minister’s residence at 10
Downing Street, the flags of terrorist groups Hezbollah and Hamas were
flying proudly beside those of Britain’s labour unions and the Socialist
Workers Party. The pro-Palestinian and pro-terrorist rally called in
protest of the presence of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
turned violent, with cars coming under attack and several arrests made."
Syrian's cry and thank god Andrew Bolt and News Corp suggests it's reason to turn our backs
Once you find reasons to be selective once you create the basis to find reasons to become increasingly selective. It's the grounds on which all dignity is lost and lies are fine. "I'll put it in a little bit if it hurts I'll take it out" Some of my bets friends are Jews" all stem from Bolt logic. "I'm better than you and I'll list the reasons."The government in all it's wisdom having generated a them and us rhetoric in this country is funding $18 mill for security of Islamic and Jewish schools say it as it is Andrew Bolt. It wasn't required until Islamophobic rhetoric by LNP came to the fore for nothing other than Tony Abbott's ratings.
Bolt simply can't think globally or about the planet only selectively. As an elitist that's just far too democratic. No matter what global science discovers Bolt will scurry around for exceptions reasons to deny it. He 's doing that scurrying in Australia to prove Islam is evil. He does it to try to convince us that Aboriginal Culture has no value, that heterosexual marriage is the god sent unit for raising kids and no alternatives can. His application of facts to prove his ideological arguments is the basis for irrational, racist and the biased thinking of any extremist. The reverse of any thing Democratic, pluralist,rational, humanist or even agnostic thought. It only supports the ideas of a chosen few in power above the rest.This Is What Climate Change Deniers Sound Like To Normal People
So from Australia's most prominent and self declared anti- tribalist, and anti - Racist comes the question why can't we be more tribal and racist like Israel. More selective less pluralist in our choice of state fascism?
"Tony Abbott says Australia will take in Syrian refugees from “persecuted minorities” - code for Christians especially:"
" But Abbott does not dare say so to a media hostile to helping Christians first:"
The Kurds of course our allies in this battle are about to be shafted. It's exactly why Australia is sending personnel to" assist" the UN rather to ensure the UN selects Christians but is doing it in their tried and true "operational way" in secret . The UN is too secular an organization and can't be trusted with these decisions imagine if need came first. We are not going to hear the end of this. It will rebound and become an issue of domestic politics and we will see it in Canning. Where the polls count before right.
"But by next year the country could be led by Bill Shorten’s Labor, and Christians will lose a protector - if his words mean anything:"
Bolt has outed himself as a totally and ultra tribalist his otherwise term to say he's not racist . Does our constitution need changing like Israels to indicate we are a Christian State? Germany wanted to declare itself an Aryan state once.
Bolt has even more reason we need to pay closer attention to the underclass in Australia. We had better check if they were Muslim first the root cause of criminality in Australia. There is now a war on some" inanimate objects." nominated drugs but not on alcohol or prescription pills. There is less attention paid to the mental health of our society in which effects all classes. However not everyone is treated the same. Bolt is blaming "ice" for this stabbing a case of domestic violence in a Muslim or indigenous family he'd be blaming the culture first.
Ice is a terrible drug as are prescription pain killers and worst of all alcohol. Billions of dollars are produced for commercial gain by criminals who cut across all classes. "Junkie parade Lalor" hasn't the funds to consume all the drugs nor has the working class of Australia. Drugs are consumed across all classes. Not everyone who takes them becomes addicted in fact a minority do. It is however associated in some cases as a trigger for those predisposed to mental ill health. The wealthy have the means to tackle the problems privately and do which is the main difference whether drugs are involved or not.
Why isn't there a war on Alcohol it is the biggest trigger for psychotic violence more so than "ice". It too is not just consumed in "junkie parade Lalor". It's also found but hidden in Malvern and Toorak where the $$$ are and the lager profits are to be made. Psychosis is truly secular and classless but not gender less when it comes to domestic or physical violence.
Bolt reveals his hypocrisy on a daily basis. There was a time he spent his energy denying any sort of Tribalism. Only people counted according to Andrew Bolt colourless people undivided and treated equally. He was in his own mind the media's even Australia's leading humanist. He was merely pointing out the tribalism of others. The indigenous , the left, Muslims of Australia they were the ungenerous bigots and reverse racists. Bolt knows who the tribalists and racists are and they stand on the opposite side to his fence. Andrew Bolt was simply trie to welcome a select few to his monocultured image of Australian society. He merely reveals the incompatibilities of multiculturalism and is not trying to impose divisions.
Food stamps and government aid in restricted form which Tony Abbott has started applying to indigenous Australians and Morrison is considering as a general form of welfare was welcomed. Now he is suddenly criticizing it. Praised by him a few weeks ago it is now declared a negative in Germany.
"Which only helps to create a permanent underclass."
"Germany is crippled by it's war guilt"
" Cyprus would prefer Christians"
" Bulgaria, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Estonia and possibly
Poland. All have claimed their policies are not discriminatory but
rather an effort to maintain cultural cohesion."
Bolt draws all his information from the right wing political classes Iceland capped the intake to 50 until 10,000 of 330,000 Icelanders spoke up now they are taking 11,000 putting them up in their own homes and paying for them to get there. Furthermore Iceland like Abbott is not publicly declaring itself the most generous government on the planet. But then they aren't involved in Canning's by-election are they.
Bolt seems to be struggling with the Christian concept of the good Samaritan and do unto others as you would have them do unto you. When people are charitable he can't com to grips with it. For him it's just guilt. He's even chocking on the notion of conversion. ISIS accepts converts. Hitler didn't nor it seems does Bolt. So has Bolt now reduced Islam to the concept of race and not just faith? His humanist philosophy hasn't vanished it was never there nor it seems his Christian one.
" Muslim
migrants are converting to Christianity in their droves in the hope it
will greatly improve their chances of winning asylum in Germany."
Even these mutants will need to be weeded out according to Bolt and Abbott is sending ASIO over to ensure that there's no confusion.Aid groups 'amazed by generosity' as Tasmanians volunteer to help settle Syrian refugees
