In memoriam. Australian Journalism. Judd Wept

For reasons unknown ( possibly cash strapped) the ABC has shut down its fact check system which it was doing with RMIT.
Yet most other public broadcasters in democratic countries , together with independent media, continue to report on fake news and AI generated pics.

Sky has a weekly thing called The Media Show. Essentially an extended session of ABC and other non-Murdoch media bashing. As to the regular failings among their own … sorry nothing to see here.

Well, I mean…duh.

Bag the ABC all you want, but until you find a network that criticises itself, or puts on a live show that it doesn’t control.

GFY.

And ftr, Spotlight is the most dishonest, sleazy, corporate-driven program on FTA.

The Seven Network defends, monetarily, war criminals and rapists.

Anyone who relies on them for moral guidance needs a Farking shake-up.
Either from a long walk off a short pier, or a bowsprit of some other variety.

Phil Coorey is some analyst. In a recent article in the AFR, he claims Libs in Victoria were punished in 2018, largely because of a backlash at Turnbull being deposed as PM.

This has been happening for years though. Like the Sam Hyde is the shooter joke.

The King is only visiting NSW. No surprises he’s only meeting with the NSW Premier.

If that’s Tom Elliott in the pic, he needs to worry more about his dress sense than State Premiers meeting (or not) some of the world’s major oxygen wasters.

The faux outrage has been about a reception in the National Capital, at Parliament House, one crowded hour. From memory the State Governors will attend, as the representatives of the Crown in the States.

What a waste of time having the King down. Should tell him to ■■■■ off.

Who should tell him? And would he listen?

Kerry Stokes right wing rage bait sponsored by Gina.

Heaven help us that the UN decrees that Palestinians should have their own sovereign state. Not that this will help much if the current situation in palestine continues.

UN won’t do it - it will be vetoed by US.

Kim Williams on a rant about Joe Rogan and his fact free podcasts.
He puts the solution as education and knowledge, more funding to the ABC.
He needs to dig deeper to understand why so many are attracted to Rogan.

the one tick i’ll give rogan is that he for the most part lets the guest steer the conversation as opposed to jimmy kimmels and james cordens of the world who have to keep things short and sanitised
