ANDREW BOLT|Old Dog Thoughts |
News Corporation employs Andrew Bolt and provides him with a platform ensuring the inequality of speech. Bolt's Blog not only advocates conservative, right wing and Tea Party views it moderates out most opposing opinions which he is entitled to do. However Andrew Bolt simply lies when he says he provides an arena for fair and balanced discussion in a no spin zone. He doesn't it's all spin.

Fighting Fake News with REAL; 11/2/22; Religious Government; Jenny is still running the country;
OK, so this is getting serious. Save Our ScoMo is officially
in full swing. Over at News Corp HQ, gun investigations editor Sharri
Markson pulled out an exclusive for the ages today (the ages being the
operative word). It also ranks as one of the most dishonest pieces of
journalism you will ever see.
A 2022 “reds under the bed” campaign based on comments made
31 years ago and deceptively presented as new in your national
broadsheet.
The Australian‘s 31-year-old “exclusive” was,
naturally, backed up with quotes from Treasurer Josh Frydenberg who it
appears is more than happy to play along.
Meanwhile, over at Nine, the Morrison spin machine is in top gear with an “at home with the Morrisons” piece on 60 Minutes
coming up. “After [one of] his toughest weeks in the top job, the prime
minister fights back with his secret weapon,” says the promo. “Sunday
on 60 Minutes: can Jenny Morrison save her husband’s career?”
When in strife, call the wife. That, it would appear, is the
Morrison maxim. Jenny Morrison was a hit on the campaign trail last time
around. And this time Jenny is an even more potent weapon: Albanese, of
course, is a man sans wife and school-aged kids.
He asked Jenny for an explanation and now Jenny is on 60 Minutes to tell us the dog ate his homework. But he has in the meantime declared Koalas are endangered.
It has been more than 3000 days since the Coalition
government first took power. And in the dying days of the 46th
Parliament this week, we saw a government that had not so much gotten
lost along the way, but no longer seemed like it ever had a reason for
being in the first place. Scott Morrison has been promising to achieve
two concrete policy objectives since he attained the Prime Ministership
more than three years ago. The first was a law clarifying the boundaries
between religious and personal freedoms in Australia and the second was
to create a federal agency to crack down on government corruption. But
at the death of his first full term as Prime Minister, Mr Morrison was
able to combine two signature policy proposals into a singular blunder
and end the week farther behind than he began.
