The Guardian posted:The New Daily can reveal that on May 4, 2017, the former Australian Defence Force general’s Twitter account retweeted a post that said: “Exam. I was asked to name two things commonly found in cells. Apparently ‘young Muslims’ and ‘Somalians’ were not the correct answers.” Not a racist bone in his body ladies and gentlemen.

BBJoey posted:i think it’s fair to write about the idiotic internal civil war the alp is constantly fighting, but if you read her stories about turnbull particularly towards the end of last year it’s obvious she is blindly devoted to him as a leader. basically every word of her articles is about how if only the dang conservatives would get out of the way, malcolm with his genius intellect would lead australia into a golden age. Not to pick on you but could you give some examples of this because I couldn't find any. I mean, she bothers to watch him on Q&A and I think that's insanity, but she doesn't do more than report his words, and I would expect a Turnbull shill to take a more approving stance than that. She can hardly avoid talking about him when his leadership was a constant issue. And I agree it isn't helped by playing horse-race journalism with the Opposition at this stage after giving Abbott his head for so long. As I listen to the podcasts as well, to me it's far more problematic that she excuses a multitude of Liberal sins, without needing to mention Turnbull, because somehow this panders to the media cycle. For instance at the end of last year she indulged herself with: quote:The contemporary media cycle rewards politicians who emote (thinking in the current period really is strictly optional, how else do you explain Donald Trump?), disrupt (the contemporary currency of everything) and go negative – or even better – go full ad hominem (because it works more often than it should). This is quite typical of Murphy, she starts off with a reasonable point, and then takes the most ridiculous example as if a couple of loonies pestering an ALP politician disproves it. Remember, at this very same time we were hearing about senior Government ties to the same Chinese person! But you wouldn't know it from Murphy. Yet, later, she goes on to say quote:If there’s no obvious penalty for bad behaviour (apart from a few political commentators rolling their eyes and firing off a scarifying hot take – which will be replaced in five minutes by a puff piece from someone else), then people will go on doing it. And that's the beef I have with her journalism: she'll write it all off because for her it'll never matter down the track and she can make cute references to externalities that will also never impact her. She makes a song and dance about her care about climate change, but that gets dumped the minute she can talk poo poo about economics. And if you call her on this, that's when she gets haughty and affronted. At the end of the day Murphy despite her pretences is part of the CPG and their line is that the government is being hindered by some stupid infighting, and that actual functioning adults are running the country which they aren't and don't. God knows who actually does these days.

Here’s what Murphy should be writing on Turnbull - Rundle in today’s Crikey:quote:There is a measure of the current relationship between politics, government and everyday life, and that is the rich varieties of contempt one now feels for our elected representatives. We’ve gone well beyond the stage of blanket “hate” for pollies we happen to dislike or disagree with. Virtually the entire crop of leading mainstream party politicians — after the cresting of John Howard and the demise of the Beazley-Crean Laurel and Hardy act — arouse in us rich and complex blends of pity, loathing, and disgust; each as distinct as the different notes and flavours in a variety of single malts.

ewe2 posted:That's a loving astounding take from Keane. Glad I didn't resub to get the benefit of that piece of poo poo non-journalism. I don’t agree with it but I see his point. There’s enough to criticize Barnaby on without giving a poo poo what’s happening in his personal life. When the media went after Gillard’s it was despicable, so arguably this is an extension of a similar principle - media should be focusing on why LNP policies are evil, corrupt and incompetent, not who is diddling whom. When Barnaby made his dumbass traditional marriage comments that should have been criticized on the basis of them being stupid, illogical, non representative and discriminatory, rather than worrying about hypocrisy. On the other hand it’s not like the major media agencies do any of that stuff well so who cares, unleash the dogs on them.

It's pretty disgusting seeing all the Labor MPs on twitter falling over themselves to respect are troops before making any comment on Molan's hosed racism. I've literally seen tweets like "Molan was a brave soldier. We thank him for his service. But now he's an MP he should be more careful about what he posts". Just say the fucker's a racist and probably a war criminal, who's done more the ruin the lives of veterans through systemic abuse and putting them through a pointless war, than any perception of not thanking service hard enough.
