Fighting Fake News with REAL,1/12/19 Murdochian Trash pollutes Australia; Media Pollution is in your face; The Inglorious truth of British History revealed in India the West Indies, Africa etc but Australia according to some idiots was an Exception;

 The Australian must be held to account - » The Australian Independent Media Network

During the week, the increasingly ridiculous Murdoch rag, The Australian, published yet another article by the Coalition’s tame climate change denier, Ian Plimer.

Alexis Berg, Associate Research Scholar, Princeton University: “Just like previous pieces by the same author, this piece is an unorganised collection of the same old misleading “arguments” from climate change deniers that have been addressed thousands of times before.  It is frankly appalling that any newspaper that would like to retain some credibility would continue to publish such pieces.”
It’s time The UnAustralian was held to account for their deliberate and destructive campaign to mislead the Australian people about this existential threat.
If we want to talk about “ensuring integrity”, then the Murdoch media would be a great place to start.

Almost 25,000 knife-related crimes committed in Queensland last financial year

  1. A dramatic rise in young people carrying knives prompts a Logan detective to start a campaign warning of the risks, with new statewide figures showing a 40 per cent increase in knife-related crimes.

    'He's no hero': Man who helped stop London Bridge terrorist a murderer.


James Ford, who was convicted of the murder of 15 year old Amanda Champion, and was one of the individuals, while on day release, who tackled Usman Khan on London Bridge.

"He is not a hero. He is a murderer out on day release, which us as a family didn't know anything about. He murdered a disabled girl. He is not a hero, absolutely not," Amanda's aunt, Angela Cox, told the Daily Mail on Friday. "I don't care what he's done today, he's a murderer," she said.
"Yes, he did something nice, but that doesn't make up for what he has done. He's not a hero, and he never will be," Cox told BBC News on Saturday.
We heard this attitude expressed so often by media commentators like Andrew Bolt, yet when he was convicted of Racial vilification himself, he claims the law got it wrong. Is it any wonder these attitudes, in fact, encourage recidivism and serving time for a crime is enabled by beliefs fostered like this in the community. The media, in this case, like Bolt amplify that people who have committed a crime should never be forgiven even if they served the prescribed time.
However, not so in Norway and other Scandanavian countries where the recidivism rate is much lower and rehabilitation the focus. One needs to ask why a murderer can't be a hero? Why has the media created this headline rather than what Ford did to prevent a terrorist from doing further harm? Afterall he did something "more than nice".

THIS 'TELLING' EVIDENCE AGAINST ME DOESN'T HELP PASCOE AT ALL

The Saturday Paper's Rick Morton is ignorant and deceptive in defending Bruce Pascoe: "Tellingly, after mocking an account he questions about animal yards in an Indigenous settlement I went to Bolt with an actual account of one quoted verbatim that IS IN DARK EMU, and he responds: 'Maybe they were animal pens, who knows?'" Here's the truth.

" There is one particular question Andrew Bolt does not wish to answer....he has read Bruce Pascoe’s best-selling history of Aboriginal Australia, Dark Emu. Each time, he evaded the question."
Perhaps it's the reason Bolt tends to attack the man rather than debate the work or what he said. Bolt did that with Adam Goodes as well when he found a groundswell of protest telling him what Goodes actually said, and in the context, it was all said rather than Bolt's cut and paste ignorance put on display.
Bolt's, never to be forgotten, fact that he was found guilty of Racial vilification lurks behind the attack on Pascoe who openly admits."
“The people he(Bolt) attacked for this crime, however, had an unfortunate thing in common: their credentials were impeccable. Any good reporter could pick up the phone and talk to their mothers about their Aboriginality until the chooks go to roost.

“If I had been part of the group who took Bolt to court for impugning their heritage, he would have had a field day.”
Bolt even manages to stuff up this rebuttal! As per my emailed question to him, I don’t claim to have found this information. I quoted it to him and the precise page number on which it appears in Dark Emu. Reading comprehension: nil. 
1) reviewing the original documents and explorer accounts in question. They are – at every instance – quoted verbatim and cited accordingly in an extensive bibliography at the end of Pascoe’s book.
Bolt alleges: "Dark Emu – included incredible misquotations of its sources." What it shows, however, is Bolt has never read the book Pascoe didn't quote Sturt when referring to a "town of 1000" but Mitchell.
2) In his reference to dates, Bolt's is likened to a drunken sailor. When Judge Mordecai Bromberg pronounced Bolt guilty of Racial Vilification, he also found him guilty of slack and lazy journalism. Someone who had no care for facts but only his own ends as he's doing here. Trying to protect White Colonial History from its more than possible denial.
Amazing having spent so much energy attacking the likes of Bruce Pascoe and Adam Goodes as men dubious character along with others all Bolt has to offer is "
 “Trust you to attempt to make this about me and not his incredible claims.” doing what Bolt does time and again FLIP the argument to make out he's the victim and Morton is the aggressor.
This telling evidence against Andrew Bolt Chris Kenny and others does indeed help Pascoe as his claims have stood the test and evidence found by others since.
On Wednesday, Marcia Langton replied to Josephine Cashman on Twitter. The two were previously close.
“The critique of Dark Emu is a job for actual historians not Andrew Bolt & others who benefit financially from tearing apart the lives of people looking for family,” she said.
 Andrew Bolt is a reductionist saying Pascoe has no Aboriginality because he hasn't the right documentation. When is a "heap of beans" a "heap of beans" Andrew Bolt? Is it 1 bean?,2,3,4, or----25 beans? Who chooses the tipping point when several beans become a "heap"? Andrew Bolt thinks he is judge and jury. He thought he had that right when convicted of racial vilification as well. Like Hitler had the right to define who was and who wasn't a Jew. In much the same way he hasn't any right to judge Pascoe at all. Besides, it's Pascoe's work that is and should be debated not the man.
  If that were the case, could it be argued, what Bolt never addresses, is that he is a Nazi because of his heritage and connection to Aalsmeer. It's well documented. Oh, it's not an issue of race, but then neither is Judaism, but Hitler certainly made Judaism one. So why can't it be said Bolt is a Nazi? Simply saying no won't cut it.

PASCOE FOOLED MORTON ABOUT ABORIGINAL 'TOWNS' OF '1000' PEOPLE

The Saturday Paper's Rick Morton made gross errors in defending Dark Emu author Bruce Pascoe from my criticism that he wrote fake history and made dodgy claims that he was Aboriginal. But in my response yesterday I missed one critical blunder from Morton that proved what he denies - that Pascoe misquoted his sources. Peter O'Brien hasn't missed.
2m ago 
Mitchell's "estimated" of numbers is fair enough. However, not according to Andrew Bolt, so when is a heap, a heap or an estimated 1000, not 1000? A Census report, not a Census report. Is an estimate simply a leap of faith, a Religion? Bolt's demand for absolute exactness doesn't seem to apply to the white man's history. Bolt looks as if he's trying to wriggle out of his embarrassment.
 There are an increasing number of Bruce Pascoe's around along with growing attention and new evidence. The demand for absolute exactness rather than probability is rarely found in history just as an absolute connection between smoking and cancer never has.  Bolt's insistence that human history needs to be based on "fact" rather than probability is counter to any human experience.
It seems rather a rush of desperation in the defence of white men's accumulation of historical "facts" as an exact interpretation of our past. It's ultimate absurdity to tell us history, as written, shouldn't be changed because it's somehow "exact". What Wanker Bolt is when he says " We are in a wild new world where facts do not count, at least to the Left. It's the side and the story."
 Somehow Bolt seems to find it astounding that after 200 years of being told and taught white history that one can find Aborigines that support what they have been taught. Jacinta Price is just an example of the uncertainty of the past that is open to be re-examined when new evidence arises. She's certainly not a reason for denial.  If whites or blacks question the past the only reason is new evidence not simply Bolt's name-calling that they are 'Left'. How shallow is that?
Basically, one needs to ask why has the man so blinkered and has such a tin ear? Bolt is obviously disturbed as he was when his attacks on Adam Goodes showed him up for what he is a denier that any White Colonial Racist system was in place and it's descriptive of our inglorious past.
 Globally British Colonial history has been exposed and is being rewritten about India, the West Indies Africa etc and the exploitation that was involved in so many places but not according to Bolt here in Australia. We as far as Bolt is concerned some marvellous benevolent exception of a British Colonisation quite different from anywhere else.

Has anybody wondered who Bolt considers friends? John Roskam, the man with a Dutch name, is he Andrew Bolt's mate? After all, he employs his son James, is he a friend? We know  Roskam is and has been a long term friend of Bill Shorten and his two wives. I believe one was even a Godfather to the other's child. Bill, was Roskam's best man was Andrew Bolt also invited? If he was what table was he on?
 The Godliest voice giving thanks heard coming from Murdoch's media is the Grateful sound of agnostic Andrew Bolt. It's quiet, unlike the silence before Tony Abbott got rolled by Malcolm. Quite unlike the silence when Tony just kept putting his foot in his mouth time and time again and even the world was agog. There was no gloating then by Mr politeness at all costs Andrew Bolt.
During this election, it seemed Andrew Bolt was put out to graze by News Corp. Is it because he doesn't think too quickly when unproduced and unscripted like those with a journalist's background? It takes Andrew a week to produce, reproduce and repeat an idea on his Lazy Susan carousel of gigs. He's lost some recently like the radio and podcast which gives him less practice now. Nevertheless, he will soon have a new toy and target to play with Zali Steggal. Needless to say, he'll have to test out first because she might just be as feisty as Miranda Devine and bite back faster than Bolt can dish it out.
He's already run out of ideas and guests for his show so he needs an in-house filler for his show and that would be Rowan Dean of course back to save Bolt from the embarrassment of just being seen to be reading the autocue and finding guests. It seems Tony Abbott's unavailable for the 353rd time on Bolt's show of limited guests. However, he'd be a rating booster and a more enormous comic relief than Dean

Guess Bolt's trying to be funny here in some sort of strange way to get attention. Tim Seeling can't now go around crying out coal will save Qld either, or that Adani will provide the state with 14,000 jobs. However, need he become like the ABC as Bolt demands, need he become impartial like the LNP were Federally these past 6 years and will be for the next 3? After all, they have done nothing or bungled everything since 2013. Will the Qld gov put their fate in the hands of the Murdoch media from here on in as the LNP did? After all, they won't be short of cash with all those death taxes the Courier Mail spoke of. Will Clive keep donating his time and money to the new ALP in Qld?

I do believe we heard Josh Frydenberg emphatically saying to Barry Cassidy that "We do believe in Climate Change. We do believe it's real and man-made. We do believe in the Science, and we will be taking affirmative action to reduce Co2 levels". If Bolt hasn't a tin ear, I doubt we will be hearing him call it a religion anymore in the same way, as he stopped telling us the planet was cooling these past 20 years. But then maybe he'll become a crusader for Pauline and continue to?  The day of warming denialists is done if Bolt even looks out the window as records are being broken not just here but across the planet. Investment isn't going to suddenly flow back to fossil fuels, and even oil companies are investing in pushing the price of fossil fuels up and renewables down. Signs that the days of the fossil are over is the sound of Trump's war drums. He wants oil for politics to be cheap and needs an excess. His current allies aren't producing enough, so he needs Venezuela's, and Iran's. Did anyone notice ScoMo's win shot the electricity prices up?

dead cattle in Queensland

 'We have death and devastation at every turn': the flood massacre of ...

There were 6 years of drought when people prayed for rain and then the floods came. Now there are estimates of up to 500k of livestock perished and the threat of disease. hundreds of thousands of domestic livestock having been lost so far The army has been requested to come in with flamethrowers. Andrew Bolt, Tony Abbott and the LNP scoffed and denied that these extreme events are anything but ordinary with no connection with man-made climate change. However, Bolt chooses to not be as vocal on occasions like the one pictured above.
Andrew Bolt and News Corp were laughing regularly about the 6-year drought telling farmers to get over it. Australia, in fact, has had above average rainfall, and there was no Qld drought of any significance. It's just a regular climatic and isolated event despite families saying the opposite and he comfortably ensconced in Malvern.
Now Morrison says he will be announcing changes to our policies on climate Bolt will start up along with Abbott decrying the unnecessary move to the left of the political divide. However, they don't want urban Australia to see this reality and the unprecedented devastation which is real. Their political maneuvering is too but not for the benefit of the country only politics.

Bolt's a grown up to be trusted to prove to us the above historical drought and floods in Qld weren't extreme were normal and that the loss of 500k cattle is typical for the cattle industry and the threat to health it's resulted in. Only children would think otherwise. It's so typical that Bolt never spoke of it. Yes because Bolt an adult doesn't speak of these things even children find it necessary. Adani has been spotted twice in breach of the promises made about the safety of their mine. Don't knock the children Bolt they are a lot smarter than you.
Imagine if Bolt got the sack off the TV just how this expert on everything would feel. We saw how he felt when a judge told him he'd crossed the line as defined by the law and declared him guilty under our RDA. Bolt went into the state of sulks because even his legal team saw little chance in challenging the decision that's what irked him that he said he was ready to quit. Here he is belittling a girl because she was on TV talking about her life when Bolt is on TV not revealing much of his.
The girl seemed on the face of it to know more about Adani than he does. The fake 14.000 jobs in an industry that's known to fast becoming automated. The safety aspects promised but breached not just rumours but tested breeches. The Adani history Bolt never talks about and how it has scarred the land and lives of Indians. All this not mentioned by Bolt and not mentioned intentionally he certainly doesn't man-up does he?

 Firstly the ABC is discussing a survey topic they aren't promoting it. But the two whizzes of Sky can't even begin to get that across first.
After experiencing the last 6 years of droughts and floods is it unusual not to listen to the feelings of women and survey them? It's just a joke to Bolt and his mate Rowan Dean? It's easier than talking about what has happened in Qld and the Murray Darling. Misogynists are real men like Dean and Bolt they will undoubtedly put women straight and reassure them they need to be f****d, won't they?

Labor has weakened our border laws just to give the selfie generation another fake fix to a fake “crisis” to prove their “compassion”. Bolt

This is what Andrew Bolt thinks of the 2500-year-old Hippocratic Oath, Doctors, the AMA and the profession of Medicine's philosophic base.  It's just a breeding ground for left-wing conmen and traitors creating fake diagnoses to flatter their misguided and false humanity. They are ready to let the cockroaches into his blessed country. Peter Dutton the worst Health Minister this country has ever seen is being posited as the wisest diagnostician of medical issues in the country, and he has been operating in secret all these years to great effect because he's told us he has.
"The untruths and exaggerations used to hype this fake crisis are extraordinary."Bolt

Has the opportunity, ever been made available, to test who has or hasn't been telling the truth? No, Morrison and Dutton can't directly talk about that it's a national secret, and now they're more than posturing. The opening of Xmas Island to transfer asylum seekers "their defined illegals" there for treatment seems like revenge, and again all that occurs will need to remain as hidden as it has been for the past 5 years? The "hype" Bolt wants to be tested isn't the government's, no way that has always been the God-given truth, a must, testing not required. When professional staff contracted to work on Manus or Nauru wanted to speak out they were threatened with 2 years jail. Has anybody actually verified that the boats hadn't been stopped sailing and tested that reality? Examining what the government said has been under total lockdown. Boats are coming, have been turned back, and we know one even arrived, so the truth from the lips of  Dutton is really overvalued.
Now we will see the truth about boats the LNP will reveal the numbers that have always been leaving to be turned back and will call them Labour's gift. The 300 soon to be 1000  cockroaches Corman's Pedophile's and Rapists are not going to be let loose on us but Xmas Island. These LNP Trumpsters with the assist of Murdoch media will raise the shackles of fear in this country in the next 3++ months because it just might get them some votes. It's worked for them since 2001, and it worked when we saw the Cronulla riots, and it was accelerated by Tony Abbott who is ready to denigrate our doctor's nurses and health professionals in the process yet again.
 Quote: Nine facts about the medical evacuation bill | Australia news | The Guardian

Nine facts that the LNP and Bolt prefer to obscure for prefered misdirection sake.



The Truth




 

Morrison sounds the sirens

Will fear turn parliamentary defeat into electoral victory?

 The real green light here is to the far right. In the Senate today, for example, independent Fraser Anning referred to “chardonnay socialists” and “left-wing doctors” virtue-signalling their compassion for people who – in his words – were not asylum seekers but “welfare seekers”. Yesterday’s Daily Telegraph ran a disgracefully Islamophobic cartoon, prompting former race discrimination commissioner Tim Soutphommasane to tweet: “This … is what fear mongering looks like. A reminder there are media outlets that perpetuate hateful stereotypes in our society.”

Matt Corman clearly stated this was to keep rapists, and pedophiles out of the country as if that's what asylum seekers are and that it's why these crimes exist. What racist  BS are our politicians on about when they can vilify minorities in theis way fro political traction? These are the people who are meant to be representing us domestically and Internationally and have diminished us in the eyes of the world.

Bolt is ever so predictable and like a dog with a bone. Whacking-a-mole Bolt hides his misogynism behind a News Corp skirt. As for Turnbull, he's still a member of the Liberal Party if not an MP and is entitled to back or backstab anybody he wants. he unlike Tony Abbott resigned his parliamentary role which somehow escapes Andrew Bolt. It does, however, reflect his notion of Democracy it's with a very small d.




 Julia Banks refuses to name Liberal bullies before the election - Politics - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

The fact is women in the Liberal Party know better than men what bullying is just as Transgender and Indigenous people do. It's not surprising White male Christian heterosexuals to say there is none it shows just how entrenched and deep their connection to white male privilege and colonial history their psyche still runs. The fact that Andrew Bolt proudly told us he had an Aboriginal friend at school and feel he needed to reflect that as did "some of my best friends are Jews". If prejudice didn't exist there'd be no necessity for saying either and Andrew Bolt seems to say it a lot. He's also very much an anti-multiculturalist who dreams of retiring in Holland and most likely holds a dual passport. In his own mind and by his own standards he's a "fake Australian" Julia Banks doesn't need name and shame individual Liberals when speaking of the dominant collective culture of the Party  (ODT)
"During that week I wasn't the only woman who spoke out," she said.
"We had Linda Reynolds speak in the Senate, that she witnessed and observed behaviour that she didn't recognise, and then she went quiet when she was promoted to being a Minister.

TURNBULL STEPS UP HIS REVENGE. HITS HUNT, FRYDENBERG

Malcolm Turnbull flies into Melbourne and promptly undermines two Liberal MPs being challenged by Turnbull-linked "independents". He praises Julia Banks, standing against Greg Hunt, as "outstanding".

 I don't recall anybody calling Cory Bernardi a traitor when he left the Party. Abbott the conservatives praised him and they were still members of parliament and the Liberal Party. I do recall what Tony Abbott instigated being done to Peter Slipper. The Party bullies sent him to hospital. Abbott had all the other members pay back the misappropriation of funds including the $13k he took but not so Slipper's $900.
Turnbull might be a member of the Liberal Party but he's not a Parliamentary member and he's calling a spade a spade when he says the Flinders election will be interesting even Bolt seems to think so.
" Turnbull hates Hunt. Banks, his most loyal ally," Bolt For a person who claims he is a role model of manners and cool Bolt seems to be the one screaming hatred, not Turnbull.
Turnbull's son is another kettle of fish and is entitled to be a member of the ALP if he so wishes it's big D Democracy isn't it or as I suspect Bolt is a firm believer in Nepotism.
So Abbott MP is entitled to cross government opinion and spend 2 years backstabbing, so much so, he pained his own constituents that a rush of Independents has arrived to challenge him. Turnbull Australian citizen needs to be shut down how does that work Andrew Bolt?
