I don’t read The Australian. But I gather from Twitter that the odious Dutton has sooled (sicked the attack dogs) the AFP onto Bruce Pascoe to determine if he has indigenous heritage. Staggering. It has the acrid stench of the Third Reich’s 1935 Nuremberg Laws .

News Corp: “We Didn’t Delete The All-Staff Email Sent By A Disgruntled Employee. It Was Burnt By Arsonists” – The Shovel
News Corp employee lashes climate 'misinformation' in bushfire coverage with blistering email | Media | The Guardian
A senior News Corp employee has accused the company of “misinformation” and diverting attention from climate change during the bushfire crisis in an explosive all-staff email addressed to executive chairman Michael Miller.The email accuses News Corp papers, including the Australian, the Daily Telegraph and the Herald Sun of misrepresenting facts and spreading misinformation to focus on arson as the cause of the bushfires, rather than climate change.
The email was penned by a senior member of News Corp’s commercial arm in response to an all-staff email from Miller detailing the leave arrangements available to staff and announcing other bushfire-related initiatives.

“This does not offset the impact News Corp reporting has had over the last few weeks,” the employee wrote. “I have been severely impacted by the coverage of News Corp publications in relation to the fires, in particular the misinformation campaign that has tried to divert attention away from the real issue which is climate change to rather focus on arson (including misrepresenting facts).
Rupert Murdoch is a director of Genie Oil illegally exploring the Golan Heights of Syria for liquid gold so is it any surprise that he promotes his investment? (ODT)
Australia has rightly called for all parties to be restrained but has asked Iraq not to kick out Australian troops who are said to be training Iraqis to fight Daesh. Of course if you train other people’s troops you have no say in how they will use that training. We are there, as usual, because the Americans want us there, not because the Iraqis want us there. Having joined in an illegal invasion of Iraq to please the USA we are now stuck with the consequences of that ill-advised action. By leading with our chin publicly, we make it more likely that Australians will be targeted as part of any revenge attacks on the US. Direct criticism of the US action has been absent which would not be the case if a country like China or Russia had done the same thing.
