@luciedigitalni Gutless wonders!
I'm not surprised that Sky News and the usual Murdoch muck-rakers are out there spruiking the wonders of Poor Pauline.
But, it's disgraceful to see such terrible fawning by journalists, and for it to go as far as favouritism and policing of colleagues.
And, whatever happened to the impartiality of the ABC?

Ho ho ho. He's such a jolly ol' insurrectionist, traitor, grifter, liar, fraud, sex pest etc.

Nothing to see here. Just ABC News humanising the most reprehensible of our species.

Trump earns laughs as hot mics at G7 summit capture leaders discussing lighter topics

As world leaders made their way into conference rooms at a lakeside resort in Évian-les-Bains, microphones caught plenty of off-the-cuff banter.

“Budget flops” … shows you how little attention this rag pays to public opinion and the mood of the electorate. The fin review ought to change their masthead to Propaganda Ministry.

“Warracknabeal Energy Park gets Victorian approval as community worries about impact.’ (Source ABC News)

I’m not going to link to the article, it’s easy enough to find if required. I just wanted to point out that the #ABC reporting on the Victorian Govt approval for a very large windfarm project is absolutely disgraceful. For a public broadcaster with a remit to report and inform to report opposition opinions without providing the facts on the matter, is tantamount to #Lobbying on behalf of #NIMBYs and #ClimateDeniers.

The fact that this *local* *opposition* to the #WindFarm project invokes environmental concerns is especially galling given the environmental impact of their farming practices (past and present).

I don’t even want to talk about their BS concerns with “impacts on human health, on noise, on visual amenity loss”. I mean, visual amenity loss, really? It’s farmland morons. Why is the ABC platforming these nutters?

Banging on about ‘broken promises’ reminds me of a petulant child rubbing their eyes with balled fists and blubbering. “B-but y-you p-p-promised.”

Australians and Australian politics deserve a better media and standard of journalism.

Eh… you have ‘great expectations’ for this show, sry to dissapoint but…

You’re right of course, #Insiders is not a without its right-wing neoliberal bias. Not only is the bias evidenced by the ‘in your face’ #Host, it’s in your face in the limited variety of guests appearances (with few exceptions amongst the panel). For all the information/news it provides, you might as well watch #FoxNewstainment and risk being brainwashed like an increasing proportion of Australian voters.

It’s just amazing that all those CPG journos sat in that Labor Govt press conference about the #ISISBrides and not one of them raised the IDF soldiers complicit in genocide holidaying in Australia or returning home. #auspol #ThisIsNotJournalism

Words of wisdom from #AmyRemeikis:

“There is very little curiosity outside of the business pages about why Rinehart is doing this (Sarah Martin at the Guardian a noted exception). Context has very rarely been a forte of mainstream media, which tends to see adding in historical facts and events in their total context as rubbing up against their ideas of ‘objectivity’. That’s always been a problem, but it’s becoming an increasing threat to our democracy, with legacy media – not just in Australia, but also in the US and the UK – showing itself incapable of handling a backslide in democracy, partly because it doesn’t see context and proper analysis of power as necessary.”

As long as they keep appointing pseudo-journalists (aka neoliberal propagandists) to management roles in the ABC, it’s not going to be reporting without bias and therefore utterly Fail to “inform’ the public.

They try to cover their obvious bias by offering ‘both-sideism’, which does not do.
