Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly has helped set the bar for the
normalization and dissemination of right-wing hatred, offering
incendiary commentary about sexual harassment and assault, gender, race
and ethnicity, low-income people, the LGBTQ community, Muslims and
refugees, immigrants, and reproductive rights. Now that O'Reilly has
been forced to step down from The O'Reilly Factor after an advertiser
revolt over revelations that Fox News’ parent company, 21st Century Fox,
paid $13 million in settlements to women who came forward with reports
that O’Reilly was a sexual predator, Media Matters takes a look back at
some of the lowlights of his career, including his history of inaccurate
and embellished reporting.

Will this have consequences for News Corp Australia and Sky News. Andrew Bolt modeled himself on Fox News personalities
COULTER BANNED FROM UNIVERSITY AFTER LEFT THREATENS VIOLENCE
Extraordinary and sinister. Violent
Leftists now determine who may speak at American universities: "After
riots and violent protests in and around their campus..., officials at
the University of California at Berkeley said the school is canceling a
planned speech by conservative firebrand Ann Coulter because of safety
concerns."
Not peep from Andrew Bolt on this and why Berkley banned speakers not just Coulter.
Freud Cocaine
This is a PaywallTrash to attract you to subscribe to the Australian But this reveals a lot about
Bolt he prefers a fantasist and a liar over and above a truth teller as a
leader who can advise. Bolt is the minder to a belly dancer the real
cool legend in is own lunch time that tried to impress us with his opera
art and antiques. He tried to impress us all with a Baron Von Munchhausen fantastic lie and the things he owns to convince us he's an adviser and leader to be listened to. Listened to over and above Senator Scott Ludlam who could only offer us the truth of his life's experiences and other genuine qualities
on his CV. Unlike Bolt Scott doesn't have a false claim like Bolt
educated at Adelaide University. Scott didn't lie about his drug taking
but Bolt lied when he was sprung by his ex fiance he called her out for
bullshit until she came up whith undeniable proof. Bolt's walking on
eggshells when it comes to attacking the man. He flopped when he did it
to Adam Goodes and Waleed Aly. It's look of a very ugly Australian who promotes himself a holder of true Aussie values

VALUES ARE WHAT WE FIGHT FOR ALWAYS - NOT JUST IN A CAMPAIGN
Good on Malcolm Turnbull for saying he will
fight for Australian values. But this shouldn't just be for a new
campaign. Where was Turnbull in all the recent battles? Get stuck into
the debates, or this risks seeming a stunt.
Values are best discussed when defined something Bolt never does other than saying "I'm Indigenous" "I'm not a Christian" "I'm a victim" What are Australian values in a Multicultural country. If he can't define them other than by pointing to people to others why doesn't he allow others to do the same. He defines them speaks about and for them harrangs us about them like an old fish wife who is entirely dissatisfied with Australia. Now he hand balls the undefined job to Turnbull knowing fully well he can't either it's a poison challis only because it doesn't exist and it simply brings Australia down rather than up What are Australian values? | NITV
IMPRESSIVE: A STUDENT DEFENDS DEBATE
On the one side is the Sydney University
Student Union, banning a film made by a woman and produced by a woman
and screened by a woman, claiming that it harms women. On the other side
is Renee Gorman, the student who was trying to screen The Red Pill. Which impresses you most? Watch my interview with Renee.
It seems Bolt has run out os topics so much so he's shown this interview 3 times why? At the core is his pet propaganda 'free speech'. Bolt doesn't debate never has and never will. He is never seen on a platform where the space time and format is equal to all parties and the questions being asked have a representatives to argue against Andrew Bolt without their hands tied. Bolt chooses "his set". The majority of his time is taken up attacking the men or women with whom he disagrees either personally or by him telling us their point of view. He's neither the Drum, Q&A or the Insiders on the ABC. He is Fox News USA.
He presents false facts, under whelming facts, skewed statistics and even quotes from yesteryear to prove his points rather than gain an understanding which isn't his goal. It's watching Bolt trying to squeeze marshmallows into a money box. Most of his time is trying to promote or defend ultra conservative values not middle of the road conservative ones but Australia's own extreme right ones and overseas guests of even greater extreme and notoriety are his guests Milo an example. Bolt is always 'right' in the moment and even 'right' when wrong. If wrong he never apologizes but just moves on public apologies spell death in a 24/7 media cycle and moving on is to forget. So when Milo got ostricized by the right Bolt just left his favorite boy behind as if he were road kill. Even Bolt's dearest 'free speech' arguments weren't used to defend Milo. If Bolt is forced to legally apologize it's only offered in writing and deals are done in secret. Basically Bolt is the media's sewer rat.
'Free speech' is Bolt's favorite topic he defends it when he has something to say and pretends he can't even when he can that's how twisted he is. 'Free lies', 'false facts', 'vilification', 'rudeness' are all allowed and are tools of the trade along with redefining terms, flipping in order to reduce arguments to nonsense if possible like 'I'm an Indigenous Australian". The goal to make a noise with access to the power of a global corporate resource News Corp. A space and platform that loses money from Bolt's activities but nevertheless sells influence and does it globally.
So in Bolt's definition of 'free speech' individual and private opinion shouldn't be restricted by government or law as is the case of our RDA. Yet that's not the only area it is legally accountable. The work place is another environment where restrictions exist. MPs are exempted and protected from slander when sitting in Parliament. In the case of Red Hill the Student Union at Sydney Uni can be deemed private as it's a totally voluntary organization one the conservatives wanted. Dendy Cinemas are private as are all the other organizations not wishing to show Red Hill. There are no restrictions on Andrew Bolt showing it but he's not is he? He could as a special event on The Bolt Report but he won't. Everybody it seems is in the arena of 'freedom' non government and according to Bolt can do what they will. It seems that the product being sold however 'reverse sexism' and the attempt to redefine our history and social reality of a male 'rape culture and domestic violence is not one believable. Men simply aren't victims.
Redhill is out there for public consumption and it's allowed to be out there there are no laws preventing it to be out there but it's statistically irrelevant a fairy tale, a distortion of what life is and like the The Bolt Report without News Corp can only find a limited audience. Like Mark Latham without the patronage Andrew Bolt gets from Rupert it's dead in the water. At some time or place in history it may get a hearing in some social science class about how a misconstrued view of the social construction of our reality found difficulty in getting traction even when it had the support of Andrew Bolt and News Corp who could but wouldn't show it. There is no debate here just promotion disguised as whinging..
