Andrew Bolt's Blog,11/11/18; Will the real Andrew Bolt please stand up; Yet another unmeritorious opportunist who works for Rupert Murdoch's News Corp;;



Anne’s alive … unlike some

 " she wrote an error-ridden essay suggesting the reason I wasn't Leftist, too, was that I was corrupt - hungry for the cash and fame from being a conservative. Idiot." Bolt


Did Bevis Blair post this on Butthead Bolt's behalf?

 Anne Summers, after all, was the journalist that corrected Andrew Bolt's Walter Mittyesque, Baron Von Munchausen tall tale self- biography where Bolt once described himself as a "minder to a belly dancer", single, never engaged or being kept when unemployed by his then fiance. Bolt's fantasy bubble was popped by Summers and when confronted by the truth he crumpled like a cheap suit and publicly apologised.
It seems Anne Summers will never be forgotten and Bolt will hound her with the help of others whenever to the grave.

" including the revelation that he had once been “a minder for a belly-dancer”. If this titbit was designed to make Bolt seem more exotic and interesting to his fans, it infuriated the woman who was once engaged to Bolt and who lived with him for the best part of six years.

I met the former belly dancer at Mr Tulk, the buzzy cafe inside the State Library of Victoria. Sophia Wilson, as I will call her (she does not want her name used), an attractive, articulate dark-haired woman now in her early fifties, works as a business consultant and executive coach. She was enraged that Bolt had characterised her only by the part-time dancing job that helped finance her study to become a teacher. “Belly dancing has a connotation of salaciousness but it is a traditional dance,” Wilson told me as we sipped herbal teas. “As if I needed a minder!”
“It suggests a stereotypical image of Middle Eastern men trying to paw me. It’s inaccurate and frankly ridiculous,” she said. She was also deeply offended that Bolt had used her to add some spice to his public image when she had supported him through the 1980 journalists’ strike and his mother’s protracted terminal illness. “Whilst Andrew might have a high IQ, his EQ [emotional intelligence] is obviously underdeveloped, he appears to be blind to the impact that his actions have on others and then takes it personally when they respond. It is as though his public persona has become enmeshed with his personal identity, which is quite sad.” She got in touch with Bolt, who immediately and profusely apologised." Anne Summers

Mr. President, with all due respect, you are wrong'
