Junior G-man posted:Rafael Baer remains a barely readable oval office: He's gone from banal to 'you plebs just won't listen' in typical liberal fashion. How dare we refer to blatant distortion and misrepresentations of things said by Corbyn as 'smears'? That (I presume) Private Eye spread is brilliant.

Barry Foster posted:I'm not saying I'm psychic, just inferring it, but I've got a weird feeling of dread about this whole thing, and the last time that happened was the GE. So I'm expecting the worst Yeah, I've got the same feeling. Triangulatory Cooper who can't comment on anything will get it, and the Blairites will raise their bloodied mouths to the sky to howl in favour of the sensible party of government.

Phoneposting, but Rafael Behr wringing his hands in the Guardian this morning about being liberal, but approving of drone assassinations because sometimes these things are necessary, but couldn't we just wish there was a more liberal waaaay? Pillock.

The media coverage at the moment is completely unhinged, and there are so many journalists on Twitter being either a) passive aggressive, b) going on about how loving stupid and fickle the public are, c) claiming that, for example, the large mandate JC got is tiny and insignificant, but that there was even less of one for the other three candidates is completely irrelevant, or in some cases, d) all of the above. I've never seen such unified frustration before, it's bizarre.

The media coverage is phenomenally awful - if ever there were an argument for much tighter press regulation, this would make an excellent case study.

I love how the discussion in the press has gone from 'less than 24 hours to break his promise about gender parity in the shadow cabinet, what a typical politician!' to 'gender parity but men got all the good jobs, what a typical politician!' in the space of a few measly hours.

It's a shame the Guardian is hideously sexist and hasn't commented at all on the new First Secretary of State's appearance in the House of Commons or the Trade Union Bill. But somewhere, there's a rumour that Corbyn once said no comment to a journalist.

So in the media today everyone whining about the national anthem and how not singing DISRESPECTS ARE BOYS, and the shadow minister for equality disagreeing in public with Corbyn about the benefits cap, saying the Labour Party supports it in principle. Any hope I had for te Labpur Party is pretty much gone.

Technically from the Observer than the Guardian, which has different editorial lines, but worth it for this: - Ed Vulliamy posted:Of course the rest of the media were in on the offensive. Our sister paper the Guardian had endorsed a candidate who lost, humiliated; the Tory press barons performed to script.
