Zoe Daniel is spot on here. Our mainstream media are so captured by the lazy (cheap, profitable) team-sport narrative of two party politics that they can’t see anything else.

Imagine if our focus all along had been policy. And how policies affect the lives of people.

How do media & political parties shift the narrative once credibility has been so profoundly lost?

We laughed at Trump’s run for president and marvel at the rise of Pauline Hanson. Why didn’t we see the sleeping threat?

Commentators left, right and centre are trying to grasp the bouncing ping-pong ball that is One Nation which has been hiding in plain sight

Yes! Two really good question areas:

1. “Imagine if our focus all along had been policy. And how policies affect the lives of people.”

and

2. “How do media & political parties shift the narrative once credibility has been so profoundly lost?”

You got me thinking. I wanna see and hear some discussion on these.
