News Corporation employs Right-Wing Broadcasters providing them with a platform ensuring the inequality of speech. Their Social Media Platforms not only advocate conservative, and extreme right-wing wing views. They monitor out most opposing opinions which they are entitled to do. However, they also simply lie when they say they provide an arena for fair and balanced discussion in a no-spin zone. They don't it's all spin.
Morrison and Putin are Media Pornographers cut from the same cloth.
Andrew Bolt actually posted today on his blog that Wokeness just
might win the culture war being fought against the bigger conservative Russian army. What he’s
unable to say however, is that Putin, in who he actually believes, is
on his side of righteousness in the current situation.
Putin like
Bolt is anti- LGBTQIs, anti-multiculturalism, anti- critical theory,
anti-feminist , a racist, a religious discriminator, anti- Climate Change, and an ultra-white orthodox
Christian Nationalist, a Trumpster who admires pay for comment Fox News and hates real journalists. Bolt is totally anti-Woke, and therefore so pro-Putin. In fact the LNP all are and dream of the day when they too had Putin's control over this country.
Wokeness is just the newest boogie man hiding under the bed
of every conservative commentator. But like all boogie men, if you shine
a light on them, you quickly find out there’s nothing there. All you’re
left with is a frightened child with an overactive imagination who’s
too scared to go to sleep.
I’ve made this point on The Week on Wednesday numerous times - people seem to still believe there is a vast civil service out there that government employs to solve problems in a crisis - there isn’t. The Liberals have spent years gutting it.
The cuts to the public service the Liberals make with such zeal are cuts to public services. Outsourcing to private enterprise means noone turns up unless there’s an opportunity to make a profit.
When announcing the industry levy, ASIC said it was to ‘recover the regulatory costs of the ASIC through annual levies and fees-for-service’.
Last financial year, ASIC collected $314.5m via the industry levy — almost three-quarters of its $437m total operating cost.
The Federal Government’s record-breaking $1.078bn profit from
ASIC came in the same year that ASIC’s two Federal Coalition-appointed
executives were forced to resign in a major expenses scandal.
Both ASIC chair James Shipton – a former senior executive with notorious global investment bank Goldman Sachs – and Daniel Crennan QC, a Melbourne barrister, were illegally paid almost $200,000 more than they were entitled to.
Treasurer Frydenberg announced a “review” into the scandal, but, as previously revealed,
he released a doctored version of the subsequent report, from which
three-quarters of its key findings had been secretly deleted.
Despite the severity of the situation – a cover-up of
corruption at the top of the corporate regulator involving the nation’s
Treasurer – not one other media outlet has reported the scandal to date.
In Australia you can add who? LNP, Murdoch, IPA, UAP, One Nation and QAnon

Racism is as true today in Australia as when Whites stepped off the boat
and imported it on invasion day. Yes, Woke is BLM and the fact that
Black lives Do Matter. Yes Woke is “cancel culture’ but not all but “change
culture” for women, for LGBTQI’s, for Climate action. It’s for the betterment of us all and
not the maintenance of privilege and power generationally handed down to a marginal few. Woke is proudly
multicultural, and the fact that our Institutions and the culture that
dominantes opinion and justifies our historic systemic patterns of behaviors no
longer reflects the common good in our reality is the reason for the drive, and need to
change.
Racism is not an opinion.
It is a fact.
This is true both in the United States and around the world.
Racism and white supremacy continue to structure American
society, largely by privileging some groups (those defined as “white”)
and disadvantaging others (especially those deemed “Black,” but other
nonwhites as well). These outcomes are the aggregate result of
individual, systemic and institutional discrimination and other forms of
racial animus. This has been a fixture of American life and society
since before the founding of the republic through to the post-civil
rights era and now the Age of Trump and a 21st-century form of fascism.
In practice, racism and white supremacy are a “changing same,”
constantly adapting over time to fit American society in support of the
maintenance and expansion of white privilege, white power and white
control.
Scott Morrison said instantly “Ukrainians were“refugees”
and would go straight to the top of the ladder” Not so Iraqis,
Aghanis, or Africans and definitely not those who arrived by boat. They
are “illegals”, first “asylum seekers” maybe but will never be settled here in
total contravention to the International Convention which we signed.
Even the ACL the Australian Christian Lobby took umbrage at Morrison’s
Racist and Orientalist stance suggesting Ukrainians Caucasians and Europeans are the
exception to those from the third world. But that’s Scott Morrison who picks up a ukelele and can’t play
and has always taken on jobs he simply hasn’t the DNA or capacity to do.
This double standard is all the more apparent in how
prominent journalists have discussed the war. CBS reporter Charlie
D’Agata apologized after describing Ukraine as “civilized” compared to
places like Iraq or Afghanistan, but he is far from alone. Others have
similarly expressed shock that a war could happen outside a “third world
nation” to people who “seem so like us.” In response to such examples,
the Arab and Middle Eastern Journalists Association released a statement
condemning “orientalist and racist” rhetoric and demanded that
newsrooms apply the same consideration to all victims of war.
Morrison's understanding of a Foreign Affair is meeting Piers Morgan and spending 45 minutes with him.
Morgan is Murdoch's new super star. Currently, Fox News is Putin's voice in America. Imagine what Senator Joe McCarthy would have done with that. Tucker Carlson is currently Russia's voice behind enemy lines along with Laura Ingraham etc. Trump even gave Fox the sole contract to be able to broadcast into all of America's bases globally and are now promoting Putin as the "good guy"and Biden as the bad. Imagine if Churchill did the same for Goebbels???
While Morrison Wags the Dog and throws Moggies on the Table.
If Putin hadn't started a war Morrison would have invented one.
Is Australia really powerless to do anything other than a posturing a call for "Unity" against Putin? Morrison as much as said "I'm suggesting the way ban Russia from sport" and "the world is listening to me". When it comes to Climate Change and a real existential threat he's been yelling " We stand with Russia and India fuck the planet save the economy". I suspect nobody is listening either way because Morrison is merely posturing.
Strangely enough a faster global transition to renewables and away from oil would have neutered Putin long ago. On that score Morrison has always been supporting Putin in resisting a rapid transition to renewables . Always the salesman Morrison is saying " We have gas for sale Germany and still not" we will accelerate to renewables". A band-aid solution at best and not really anything Putin can't deal with. Whose side is Morrison really on if not only his own?
"Federal treasurer Josh Frydenberg says the government will continue to
“turn the screws” on Russian President Vladimir Putin and others through
sanctions with Australian aid for Ukraine expected to stretch into the
millions."
One Man’s Legacy, Putin’s threat of a nuclear winter.
Kyiv: In a dramatic escalation of tensions over Russia’s
invasion of Ukraine, President Vladimir Putin has ordered Russian
nuclear forces put on high alert in response to what he called
“aggressive statements” by leading NATO powers. The directive came just
minutes before Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed a
delegation from Kyiv would meet Russian representatives on the
Belarusian border for peace talks, and as Russian troops drew closer to
the capital, Kyiv, a city of almost 3 million people.

Fake News
Ch9
with Chairman Peter Costello, like Murdoch Media, isn't past publishing
"factless" opinion pieces Australia wide. With absolutely no sources
listed what's to suggest any of this is true. It's certainly not News or
Journalism. Yes, Kevin Rudd has been active in attacking Murdoch and
the MSM for publishing articles just like this and the propagandist use
of our MSM by the LNP along with the trashing of the ABC Australia's
most trusted source of News. Mr Harris's lack of sources is more likely
to do ghosts than with protecting real people.There is a greater
chance however that there are currently members of the L-NP that would
love to see the return of Tony Abbott. Is this a distraction piece
preluding his attempt?
The two-time prime minister sent panic through the highest ranks of the party with his efforts.
Ukraine's heroes have shamed us. These real men have shown
us something that we in the West think we've lost, having had manhood
and patriotism beaten out of us. Their courage has foiled Putin's much
bigger army, and may have saved us from his next war – and China's. That
makes them, from their President down, our heroes, too. (Andrew Bolt)
Nationalism
generally has a negative connotation. It’s used for political
ideologies and movements that a more extreme and exclusionary love of
one’s country—at the expense of foreigners, immigrants, and even people
in a country who aren’t believed to belong in some way, often racial and
religious grounds.
Andrew Bolt is an Australian Nationalist here talking about Patriotism of which he really hasn't a clue. Ukrainians are defending their homes from the very invading forces Bolt's employers News Corp support. Strange he doesn't mention that or quit. If there were an equivalent example of patriotism then it's Indigenous Australians fighting the British invaders during the Frontier Wars for their love and historic connection to their land, Bolt certainly doesn't regard First Nations peoples as patriots does he? He literally sees them as 'un-Australian because of their cultural difference and the belief in his own superiority? That they should be admired has never been on Bolt's radar. Simply put he's an Assimilationist, an anti- Multiculturalist and as a Nationalist doesn't love Australia but railles against us and what we in reality are an Multicultural nation. He's definitely no a Patriot.
"Real men" there a women lining up to defend their homes. Young men and girls who if they confronted Andrew Bolt with arguments about climate change he'd call children. Brats who should know their place. All this nonsense coming from Andrew Bolt is fake because as a Nationalist he has a single minded vision of what Australia should be and a daily dose of complaints and whinging about what we aren't. And he's doing it here. There is no equivalency between what Ukrainian people are doing and what Andrew Bolt and Australian Nationalists like him really want and are demanding. Bolt is more like an invader a quisling. After all, he works for News Corp whose Fox News and head office are pro- Russian, Trumpists by Bolt's own definition the very opposite of patriots.
In recent days, as Putin has threatened a conflagration, top
conservatives and GOP officials have practically pinned “I’m-with-Vlad
buttons” onto their lapels. One example: Mike Pompeo, Trump’s final
secretary of state and before that his CIA director, had only praise for
the corrupt Russian autocrat, describing him as “talented” and “savvy.”
Donald Trump, speaking to a conservative podcaster on Tuesday, hailed
Putin’s moves in Ukraine as “genius.” Referring to Putin’s invasion of
eastern Ukraine, Trump said, “Putin declares a big portion of…of
Ukraine. Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful…I said,
‘How smart is that?’ And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper…Here’s a
guy who’s very savvy.” Later in the interview, Trump continued to gush:
“I knew Putin very well. I got along with him great. He liked me. I
liked him. I mean, you know, he’s a tough cookie, got a lot of the great
charm and a lot of pride. But the way he—and he loves his country, you
know? He loves his country.”
Morrison's response a ban on 25 Russians coming to Australia. Meanwhile Murdoch who is Australia's biggest private media distributor and L-NP propagandist is supporting Putin's Russian invasion of the Ukraine. Fox News'Ingrham was providing Donald Trump a media platform while the Ukraine was addressing the world about the Russian invasion. Tucker Carlson was central to the Murdochian love-fest for Putin spending millions apologising for Putin. Morrison has made no mention that his media master actually supports what he "claims" he doesn't. Not a peep from Morrison about Murdoch whose currently Russian State Media in America.
Morrison's response "a ban on 25 Russians" from coming to Australia, but nevertheless an opportunity for a photo-shoot with ruffled hair, an appropriate panicked appearance and urgent statement as if he was shirt-fronting Putin.
What is significant is that Murdoch's Fox News which is promoting Putin, providing space to Donald Trump to cheer Putin on rather than reporting what's actually happening and Scott Morrison is ignoring any action that might annoy his media master. Not a word of criticism coming from the Australian Government on what Australia's largest media owner is doing. Not a single complaint or sanction he's applying against 25 Russians who haven't the influence on us that Murdoch has.
ON FOX NEWS SUPPORTS PUTIN- MORRISON SPENDS LNP MONEY ADVERTISING WITH MURDOCH AND ACTS TOUGH BANNING 25 RUSSIANS
More than a year after he left office, Donald Trump continues
to be obsessed with his loss to President Joe Biden, pushing the lie
that the election was rigged against him. And on Wednesday night, the
former president’s delusions were on full display on Fox News, when he
traced Russian leader Vladimir Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine back
to the 2020 presidential election. Advertisement “He sees the weakness
and stupidity of this administration,” Trump said of the Russian
president. “As an American, I am angry and saddened. It happened because
of a rigged election.” Trump doesn’t seem all that sad. He couldn’t
help but express admiration for Putin in a speech Wednesday at
Mar-a-Lago, saying, “I mean, he’s taking over a country for $2 worth of
sanctions. I’d say that’s pretty smart.” Trump also said that “never in a
million years” would such an invasion have happened during his
presidency. He couldn’t help but boast of Putin, “I know him very well.”
His comments Wednesday are similar to ones he made in a radio interview
Tuesday, when he again called the Russian leader “smart.”
Putin raises prospect of global conflict Speaking to the World Economic Forum, Putin warned the coronavirus
pandemic and widening economic inequality had created parallels to the
1930s and said a failure to deal with those tensions helped spark World
War II.
Wendy
Morton, the British government’s Parliamentary Secretary for Foreign
Affairs, told Parliament there would be “no normalisation” of relations
while Russia destabilised Britain and Western allies.
US President Joe Biden raised concerns about the jailing of Navalny during the first phone call between both leaders on Tuesday.
Given
its inaction on the Assange case, Australia risks being remembered as a
complicit ally in the war on journalism launched by the Trump
Administration.
Race
baiters only hurt those they claim to help. Brendan O'Neill: "We are
now reaping the whirlwind of the politics of grievance. The tragic news
that many black Britons are cagey about the Covid vaccine is proof,
surely, of what happens when you tell a section of society over and over
again that they live in an institutionally racist country."
According to Andrew Bolt it Trumpism, fake facts, and a Murdochian media that supports bullshit is far better than revealing that a nation is divided by the sociological, demographic and epidemiological data. Be it America the US Australia or even the planet it's too dangerous to reveal institutional and systemic racism if it exists and is a reality. Because it threatens the power structure of any failing democracy.
To substantiate and tell the nation the truth which minorities generally already know by their experience will have a negative outcome for the system because it reveals a greater problem than just a virus.
To hide the truths like Trump did appears to be a better strategy as far as Bolt is concerned and is meant to show he's not racist. His "Race Baiters" are those who have collected the data and evidence, the scientific researchers who are the health hazard because revealing the truth is according to him worse. The fact is that Andrew Bolt's a racist who supports that the "many" Black Britons O'neill refers to are the majority who are incapable of dealing with reality. O'Neill's "many" are in fact a "few" and that's his racist attitude. (ODT)
At
least the old racists owned up to be what they were. The new racists
just pretend they aren't: "A Los Angeles school plans to host segregated
'dialogue sessions' in an attempt to foster 'inclusion' and fight
against racism." Yeah, and war is peace, right?
Queensland
broke its tourism industry with its absurd virus bans. Now it wants the
rest of us to pay: "Annastacia Palaszczuk called on the federal
government for a JobKeeper extension to prop up her ailing tourism
industry." That's the problem with our federation. The rest of us
compensate some states for their stupidity.
We are a diverse nation Victoria pays more tax that other states but unlike Andrew Bolt we don't sound like secessionists. But the Bolt is after all a Trumpist unless he's ruler of the Federation and the Union he simply doesn't want to be part of the nation. (ODT)
Good,
of course: "Anthony Albanese will move Mark Butler from the contentious
climate change and energy portfolio in a shadow cabinet reshuffle aimed
at soothing internal divisions destabilising his leadership." But
Albanese's mistake is not dumping the extremist Butler. It's been in
waiting so long that it now looks desperate.
Bolt knows what it's like in the LNP and wants us to somehow believe it's worse in the ALP. However it's not. The ALP isn't the LNP. (ODT)
Treasurer
Josh Frydenberg co-authors an article asking that the Holocaust be
never forgotten. That triggers the most amazing whattabout-ism - not to
mention hysteria, climate catastrophism and wild moral relativism - in
today's The Age. Read and weep for our future. And for that of Israel.
Rather than defend Israel Bolt simply turns to it's critics. It seems he has no arguments in it's defense. Israel is an Apartheid State. It is illegally occupying and colonizing other peoples lands. It's only vaccinating Jews in a pandemic. The parallels are so obvious Bolt won't even go there. (ODT)
Scott
Morrison wants to introduce a 'Superannuation Amnesty' which lets
bosses off the hook for penalties on ANY unpaid super since 1992 –
they'll even gain a tax advantage. Do you think super thieves should be
rewarded for breaking the law?
"Today's bombshell testimony proves without a shadow of a doubt that Donald Trump used military aid to pressure Ukraine into investigating a political rival," said Sean Eldridge, president of the group. "Republicans in Congress must do their jobs and uphold their oath to defend our Constitution by voting to impeach and remove Donald Trump." "No one—including the criminal in the White House—is above the law," he added.
Trump's not Black; he's more likely the lyncher than the person being lynched. Typical Trump turning to Fake History for his personal benefit and defense. (ODT)
Hogan Gidley told reporters on Tuesday that Trump wasn’t “comparing what’s happened to him with one of our darkest moments in American history.”
The deal transform the map of northeast Syria, leaving Turkey in sole control over one section in the middle of the border, while Turkey, Russia and the Syrian government will have hands in the rest.
The US pullout has proven chaotic. It ran into a new hitch when neighbouring Iraq said on Tuesday that American forces did not have permission to stay on its territory. The Iraqi announcement seemed to contradict US Defence Secretary Mark Esper, who a day earlier said the forces leaving Syria would deploy in Iraq to fight IS.
Erdogan is "a thief", Assad told troops during a visit to the north-western province of Idlib. "He stole the factories and the wheat and the oil in cooperation with Daesh [Islamic State] and now is stealing the land." "We are in the middle of a battle and the right thing to do is to rally efforts to lessen the damages from the invasion and to expel the invader sooner or later," Assad said.
He is known as a kill buyer, although he prefers the term horse trader. He buys horses no one wants and trucks them to a place that no horse wants to end up.
The horses he buys are nearly all retired racehorses or trotters, he tells The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald. He says he buys most of his gallopers direct from trainers, licensed participants in an industry which has spent the past four days claiming it has no idea so many thoroughbreds are sent to abattoirs.
"Most of them are some sort of racehorse. We don't buy people's riding horses or saddle horses." If what Loffel says is true, the industry’s claim that horses are being slaughtered beyond their sight is bunk; any trainer who sells a horse to Loffel knows exactly where it is going.
MEGHAN AND HARRY: NOT VICTIMS BUT WHINGERS
Media arseholes tend to unite to themselves for nothing more than ratings sake and attention. Here in Australia, the wannabe loudest arsehole has been Andrew Bolt. Andrew Bolt is, also Australia's head and leading whinger who has turned on Harry and Megan simply because he can and wants attention. However, he's a latecomer to the bovver feast an also-ran to put in the boot.
Remember how Bolt whinged ever so loudly when our law turned on him for not behaving appropriately. What did Bolt do? He bit his lower lip sulked, whinged and wailed like the spoilt brat he is, postured and threatened to quit the media. However, when nobody yelled "don't" to our disappointment, he didn't.
So what we have here is a Monarchist, a Media arsehole who rarely provides News or information directly supporting two dysfunctional institutions. By attacking Harry and Megan victims of both for speaking up by using the law. Rather than defending Harry and Megan's right, he's defending a corrupt media that feeds off a Cultural Dinosaur for profit. A press, whose editor's mindset is "if it bleeds it leads" and who in the case of Megan "make her bleed" to get the lead. Andrew Bolt, in all of this, is a simple camp follower, a lazy latecomer who has stolen the opportunity to stick his knife in and twist it. It's what he calls his job.
However, when he was charged and found guilty, he wailed like a spoilt brat and claimed victimhood. Then neither our law nor the media failed like they have Harry and Megan. They are currently gorging on the opportunity of profit by screwing two individuals who they have made bleed. Bolt is defending the Bovver boy actions of his team.
CANADA RE-ELECTS FIRST BLACK PRIME MINISTER, BUT TRUMP WINS BIGGER
Canada is a joke,
re-electing its first black/Indian/Sikh/First Nations prime minister - a culturally-cringing and weakened hypocrite.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump scores another foreign-policy success, this time in Syria.
But don't expect the media Left to admit it. My editorial from The Bolt Report.

The Real Bolt
Here is another example of whack-a-mole creating Creating a lead because he was wrong and dragging his whinge on ad museum. Why is it so important? Because Bolt was found to be, and is still wrong and now squirming.
IN 26 YEARS, THE ABC'S MEDIA WATCH HAS NEVER CORRECTED THE BIG CLIMATE LIE
The ABC's Media Watch in 26 years has never corrected what even a global warming scientist admits is a popular newspaper falsehood - that global warming causes droughts. Instead, it now does a cover up, only to be exposed by a PowerPoint slide. From The Bolt Report.
3h ago
For how many years did we hear Climate expert Andrew Bolt declare the 'Planet is Cooling". Has he ever apologised and heard to say he was "wrong"? He's wrong now as well, We saw how this media thug used Andy Pitman then threw him aside simply to attack Paul Barry and the ABC, why? For revealing how Bolt used Pitman for his own benefit and not the underlying truth that global warming does have an indirect connection to the "intensity of droughts" which Bolt denies. Just as he did when he insisted the Planet was cooling.
TURKEY MAKES PEACE DEAL ON SYRIA. TRUMP'S 'MISTAKE' ISN'T
True, Russia emerges as the king-maker, but Donald Trump's pullout is not the bloody mistake we were told: "Russia and Turkey agreed on Tuesday...to ensure Kurdish forces withdraw from areas close to Syria's border with Turkey and to launch joint patrols ... just hours ahead of a deadline for Turkey to restart its assault on Syrian Kurdish forces."
3h ago America pulled out of Vietnam to win the war for peace. Trump pulled out of Syria to win the war for peace. Now Iraq wants the Americans gone for Peace as does Afghanistan. Amazing how America such a peacemaker moving in and out other sovereign territories generally disadvantaging those they co-opted as allies when they first moved in then deserting them.
Here is the reason Andrew Bolt is little more than a media ape. Any peace on the Syrian border hasn't been Trump's success; it's been entirely Putin's because of Trump's failure. Trump started a war to defeat ISIS and get rid of Assad. He achieved neither.
He has handed the Middle East to Syria, Russia, Iran and Iraq and lost control of the oil and has had to increase troops in Saudi Arabia. In the meantime, he's supported a bloodbath in Yemen.
Israel is now in a less comfortable position as Trump has actually helped unite the Shia in the area. At the same time showing the world how America treats its allies and can't be trusted. The biggest losers have been Israel, the Kurds, and the US reputation as peacemakers. In the meantime, Yemen is a humanitarian disaster in the hands of the US and Saudi's.
An important piece from Douglas Murray: "The hit job on Sir Roger [Scuton] can be seen as a classic of the genre: he was sacked within five hours of the Twitter storm breaking. His fate offers a perfect case study in the art of modern character assassination. Except that in this instance, it unravelled." Note the cowardice of the May Government.
Their instincts are right. Our world is replete with complex matters that need discussing. We need philosophers, thinkers and even politicians of courage to help us find our way through this. We live in the age of character assassination. What we now desperately need is a counter-revolution based on the importance of individuals over mobs, the primacy of truth over offence, and the necessity of free-thought over this bland, dumb and ill-conceived uniformity.
Let us compare Bolt to what's being said here:
1) Ours is a complex and diverse nation, and we need the diversity of thought and ideas to find our way through it. Andrew Bolt, however, works for an organisation that eschews the variety of thinking not just in Australia but the English speaking world. He actually attacks Scientists Academics and the very institutions we have that encourage the difference of opinion. No safe schools or Institutions for Andrew Bolt.
2) We live in the age of character assassination. Yes, we do, and News Corp enables Andrew Bolt to do just that. He, along with his ilk, drove Yassmin Abdel-Magied out of the country a 28-year-old with more to offer Australia skill wise than Andrew Bolt ever has. She is far better educated than Bolt. An engineer, author Yassmin was more productive in her short years than Andrew Bolt has been over his entire 60 years, and she was a role model for young women today. Bolt along with his other media mates tore her down because she was, a woman, a Muslim, an African migrant who spoke up loudly. She spoke of a different truth often covered up and not allowed. She actually represented the real Australia unwanted by Bolsters.
3) Bolt talks of the importance of individuals but in fact denies their existence with his anti-multicultural stance with his insistence on Assimilation that breeds little more than a uniformity of thought the very opposite of multiculturalism. Schools need to be training grounds of single-minded thinking formatted like The Bolt Report unlike Q&A and The Drum speaking the language and ideas of a minority rather than providing a platform for the diverse and complex majority of individual Australians. Bolt prefers, no demands, a great colonial glorious myth to be made of our history rather than the truth and reality of an inglorious past. Because that truth just might be a driving force for change. He really does reveal his stupidity when he maintains he's and indigenous Australian more than Adam Goodes or Stan Grant.
4) Has anybody realised Bolt doesn't debate he preaches? He hides behind closed doors and doesn't invite debate the very opposite of the above statement. Andrew Bolt pretends he's an individual when he's very opposite the voice of a class to which he, in fact, doesn't belong just their well-paid lackey. A millionaire maybe but a tool nevertheless of billionaires who will be discarded for another tool for the job. Bolt is hoping no doubt that will be one of his sons. Nepotism isn't a world where you will find individuals and free thinkers is it? If Bolt really supported individual thinkers, he'd have helped Yassmin wouldn't he over say, George Pell? He'd be pleased to hear Waleed Aly's voice of reason rather than his emotional and irrational obsession to destroy him. 5) As for Roger Scruton and Douglas Murray' defence Twitter didn't sack Scruton the divided government did and which in the UK appears to be as divided as ours is here. However, the power of the modern outrage in Australia isn't to be found on Twitter. It's to be found in the pages of the Murdoch Media Sky News behemoth. The corporatisation of our news, information and opinions in the hands of so few players all fighting for the wealth profit and power in the hands of only 1% of Australians. Coupled with the single-minded effort to diminish the voice of the ABC our public broadcaster who today has been left operating of the same budget it had in 1984 cut by the LNP by $395 million in the past 5 years. In the course of events conservatives are very rarely the victims of a mob other than their own.
Sri Lanka is a country with no real history of Muslim-Christian tension. It is a country that has seen enormous bloodshed, but throughout its 25-year civil war, neither of these groups were the protagonists. As the violence flowed thickly between the Sinhalese Buddhist majority and the mostly Hindu Tamil minority, Muslims and Christians occupied a remarkably apolitical place. It’s for this reason that the claims of Islamic State involvement are so believable. For all the limits to what we know about this attack, the element of foreign interference is the single idea that does make sense. Waleed Aly
Did Andrew Bolt steal and plagiarise his editorial when he attacked the Greens Leader Robert di Natale after SriLanka? How stupid and petty is this and his effort to make political points? Christians or Muslims don't talk about themselves in 3rd person terms. Muslims offered their condolences to Christians publicly in Sri Lanka. Christians just offered their condolences publicly in Christchurch. But right-wing morons like Bolt want to create a divide where in Sri Lanka there was none until media like Sky News broadcast live the shooting in Christchurch to the world for 17 minutes before they were cut off. Now that's the way to stir things up are they the doppelganger of ISIS media trying to just that, to stir things up?
Is Andrew Bolt their Australian voice? The voice of the extreme right-wing amplifying a division that wasn't really there? Is he a recruiter of violence not just Christian or Muslim he really doesn't seem to care as long as there is violence and extreme division somewhere between these two religions he will tell you about it. He's even been known to broadcast a call to fight and when authorities deny the issue is a religious one Bolt will insist the authorities are conspiratorial liars hiding the fact. When will he be charged? (ODT)
Following Sri Lanka’s Easter tragedy, high-ranking Democrats engaged in a game of semantics gymnastics, dancing around the name of ‘Christians’. Republicans took it as proof of democratic enmity to Christianity.
What was News Corp's influence in the change? Was there a Sky after Dark,2GB, Andrew Bolt effect? They all preached Islamophobia HARD!!
TURNBULL WOULD HAVE BEEN TOAST. MORRISON GIVES HOPE
The first two weeks of the election campaign were just a rehearsal, given the interruptions of Easter and Anzac Day and the fact that voters weren't yet much engaged. But one thing is already clear: Scott Morrison is dragging the Liberals back into contention with an energy Malcolm Turnbull never had, and fighting on issues Turnbull couldn't.
Unable to find anything to specifically support the Liberals News Corp has to turn to bagging out someone who no longer has skin in the game. Malcolm Turnbull ordinary Australian citizen entitled to his opinion like any other. Is this the only means by which to make Ad-man Scott Morrison seem polished?
The Party Morrison now calls United is made of names like Corman, Hunt, Dutton, Taylor a bunch ready to attack each other at the drop of a hat.
