Andrew Bolt's Blog,3/11/15; Bolt is a Murdoch ninja by nature; Wow how tolerant is Bolt if the dinner is not on the table on time?; NASA and NOAA are irresponsible; Why does Q&A rate and I don't; You can trust a Russian on this; Israeli spin overlooked; Education and selling finance; Migrants become bikie gangs;
This will become a movie script about a chauvinistic industry that tried the boot her off the horse. If the horse had of been owned by Andrew Bolt and Tim Blair Michelle would not have been riding it, Steve would not have been the strapper and history would not have been made.
Assassination by implication is Bolt's tool of trade he's neither a journalist or columnist. He's a persuader a PR spin doctor who on a regular basis is loose and carefree with facts. The hypocrisy is he recognizes it in others and then feigns moral shock an horror at what he does daily. Currently he's without a team and is basically using innuendo to attack anybody and everyone who is overly progressive and wants to see this country regain the respect it had internationally in the years prior to Abbott being PM. Joe Aston of the AFR is a colleague it goes to show how News Corp has also celebrated since Abbott's departure creating a civil war between the real journalists and the opinion ninjas who have lost their power and standing in the organization. The breaking information is no longer reaching them first. Asto apologizes for errors something Bolt rarely does.
Transport stoppages are far more regular tahn power outages, does Bolt scream blue murder? The CFA starts bushfires on a regular basis do we scrap them? Does Bolt rail against the inability of these utilities to deliver a predictable fault proof service? We had water restrictions in Victoria for years and the state almost ran out of water. It was an imminent threat we now have back ups in place. It's Bolt who screams about spending on infrastructure and taxes. He hates putting his hand in his pocket for any collective reason.
It's Bolt whose railing about Turnbull's plan to borrow and spend on infrastructure. But it's also Bolt who takes a particular single event to generalize and declare that the mass murder of coal is why SA had a power outage. The fact that power outages transport shut downs water shortages etc are exceptions and not the rule proves our systems are in fact working. They were never designed to be foolproof. Bolt simply is raising an alarm for self interests sake.
Bolt simply can't distinguish between the global nature of events such as the fact that the oceans are rising. 1) because glaciers are melting and 2) because the oceans are warming and particular events of what's occurring in the Pacific. The events aren't as uniform. The melting glaciers of Greenland aren't next to the pacific islands for one. Bolt logic actually looks for the particulars to disprove the general theory developed from a huge range of evidence.
Bolt's logic is the antithesis of scientific method. In order to substantiate his claim the oceans aren't rising he needs to disparage the leading climate science organizations in the world which is far more difficult. NASA and NOAA are obviously neither corrupt nor lack the skills to do the oceanographic research they have been doing. The IPCC the organization that collates all the peer reviewed studies is not incompetent. But because Bolt isn't looking for truth but simply to confuse the science is of no real interest to him. It's merely to insure economic interest of the traditional few are not disturbed. It's why he says clean air comes at a cost
Bolt just hates the fact that Q&A has a greater rating than he does. That it has far more to offer it's audience than Bolt who last Sunday embarrassed himself with his patent snobbery. Declaring how it's improbable a chef and an ex crim could have anything of value to say he laughed at his own genius for disparagement, embarrassing his panel guests
It's amazing Andrew Bolt rarely believes what the Russians say but it's in his interest to push the Islamist line. He always is onside with any anti-Islamist line. It doesn't matter if the investigations are ongoing or not.
"palestinian stabs and 80 year old Jew" not stabs an Israeli. Bolt prefers the Islamist slant to the incident rather than the political one. The fact that in recent times there have been 168 Israeli deaths to 3,800 Palestinian ones doesn't seem to be of any concern to Andrew Bolt so it's more convenient not to mention it. The lynching of an Ethiopian is water off a ducks back to him. These were are little more than inconvenient truths.
The media is the problem accordin to Bolt and are biased against Israel. It has little to do with the fact that it's far harder to manipulate and control the narrative because of the internet and social media. Even Mossad can't control the story anymore. So they co-opt as many journalists and media organizations like News Corp & Bolt around the world to confuse the issue because they certainly can't control it. However even the Jews of the world all 15 mill of which only 6-7 mill live in Israel are no longer united.
"The media, usually so fast to denounce any perceived Israeli
“provocation” is remarkably silent on the role of the Palestinian
authority in inciting and legitimising the terrorism:"
It's why when Bolt repeats this anti-media line he's no longer part of a Western majority. He can't be seen as believable if he supports Bibi's propaganda that it was the Palestinians that told Hitler to burn Jews . Bullshit is what bullshit is.
The equality of education was the promise not the equality of debt. Bolt blames the Liberal Arts. I'm sorry Lawyers can't get jobs. Jobs for graduates across the board are limited the promise never matched reality. The business of education fundamentally became the business of debt. Debt becomes the business of entrapment of skilled workers on low wages. It's the way it has always been Capitalism needs and thrives on a pool of unemployed more so today than ever. The old adage it's who you know rather than what you know that will guarantee you a career path not your education.
Why is it a prominent law firm was selling articled clerk positions for $27,000? They saw an oppotunity in the market to sell jobs. Bolt somehow suggests graduates don't want to work or break the $50,000 cap because they don't want to repay their debt. What a load of crap. It's old line that that the unemployed are bludgers and really don't want to work. If you can make those that are disadvantaged more desperate the pressure on wages becomes downward. So you can get graduates who indebted themselves paid for their education cheaply at no cost to business. I remember a time when businesses paid for the education of their staff.
Where are the jobs for aspiring journalists? Where are the cadetships that trained beginners at the business's expense? They have disappeared and todays trainee is indebted but with no guarantee of work. It's not that journalism is not in demand but there's an over supply.
Today people with degrees are becoming mature age apprentices plumbers, carpenters, and electricians. They are running coffee houses, bars and small businesses. They are driving taxis and are the Uber drivers of today. They are not the irresponsible bludgers Andrew Bolt says they are. They are the fodder whose penalty rates are about to be cut. The sales staff who have never been offered wages sufficient to pay the debts they were sold on false promises. They are the ideal work force ready to be entrapped on low wages because of their debt.
What is that Culture Andrew Bolt? Crime Bikies and what nationalities involved? Are you suggesting the gang culture and Bikie culture is wide spread amongst the Lebanese community? Or have you discovered it's just a few bad eggs as there is in every community? That it is a part of the Australian way of life. What is it you are inferring Andrew Bolt? Holland was the biggest exporter of ecstasy around the world you never blamed Dutch Culture. The manufacture and market changed changing those involved . Melbourne recently became the murder capital of Australia. It wasn't Middle Eastern it was Australians murdering Australians. Second generation ethnic background maybe but that's 50% of the country. Are you suggesting one culture has shaped crime in Australia it appears so. Everything you suggest is innuendo what does Middle Eastern mean? Your opinions stem from a dark and bigotted place..
Organized crime in the 20s 30s and 40s was Irish Catholic. It was Australian prostitution,gambling and docklands were run by Australian gangs and it was organized. The Italians arrived and and it became significantly more organized and rumoured to be the mafia wogs and drugs became a central factor. The biggest rip offs were still in white collar crime insider trading land deals and tax avoidance practiced by those at the top. Good old capitalist culture and it's un-policed ripoffs. The police the taxation department and the politicians were crooks.
Bolt logic would have had us deport the Irish Catholics, Italians, the middle Europeans the Vietnamese and now the Lebanese from Australia. No mention ever made into the organized land grabs as we still see today at Fisherman's Bend. Where Liberal connected party members and donors are making millions through insider trading and prior information into re- zoning these according to Andrew Bolt are white and good crimes. Crimes born out of wealth and committed with a pen. However take 2 -3 Lebanese families and a whole ethnic group becomes tarnished by the bigots and Bolts of this world. They are self righteous prigs that simply scratch the surface of our reality.
