@macrokangaroo Concise as ever.. PJK closes the interview with a classic (sic) “we don’t need to be a pair of boots hanging out of the backside of the USA”

Simon Madden was infinitely better than Max Gawn as a ruckman and forward.

378 games as a ruckman with 575 goals v 214 games & 104 goals

Good on @mrseankelly for pointing out that the Coalition's "nuclear policy", which the #insiders panel has just spent 5 mins discussing, is a "fantasy" mostly designed to delay the transition to renewables.

Every report/conversation/debate about nuclear should acknowledge that.

Why has this burn by @ClareONeilMP not been communicated far & wide by mainstream media? Why would the result of the review by the eminent Richardson not inform the Australian public of the man putting himself out as the alternative Prime Minister? It’s bloody essential news..

@vanOnselenP What a weasel excuse for journalism

[ShiannonCorcoran💉x4 @shiannonc.bsky.social @ShiannonC]

Since 14 October 2023, I have not watched a single news segment on television. I can’t bring myself to immerse myself deliberately in the cacophony of crappola that emerges constantly from the mainstream channels. Even the abc has become a disappointing shadow of its former self.

The hate, division, baiting antagonists and the racism of the No campaign echoed and promoted incessantly in rampant sound bites by MSM is bad enough online, on radio and continuously pumped out in propagandic advertisements for proponents of the No campaign - without having to watch it being echoed or barely concealed by RW sycophants of supposed news to the masses.

This shameful partisan and deliberately destructive chapter in our history has done immense damage to many people. The psychological impact will have lasting effects on First Nations people. It has certainly had an impact on me. I have seen firsthand racism in my life via my father - but I underestimated the true dormant nature of hate, division and racism that can still exist in this country when triggered by fear and disinformation en masse for an extended period of time. A true playbook for right-wing ideology and extremism - spreading fear and hatred and “flooding the zone” with disinformation to divide.

I note that the instigators of the desperate “don’t know” campaign have since made themselves scarce - and that it is no longer essentially important to carry the torch for the “we are one” Australia now that the referendum is over. Which is basically how flooding the zone works. This strategy will be used over and over again by the NOalition in 2024. Flood the zone, spread the shyte sandwich far and wide, then move onto the next disruption. There will be no truth, no real news, no reality - just sound bites foghorned by the RW and echoed in the MSM.

A perfect strategy for wearing down the masses. People for the most part become exhausted. They either tune out or hear what they want to hear. Those of us who are able to sort through the chaff have to work hard to get there.

I tend to avoid commercial stations completely now - and only turn the television on to catch a documentary or a movie on a streaming app.

I catch up on news online and read articles that are relevant or of interest. Of course, it is impossible to avoid the propaganda, disinformation and misinformation - but at least I can recognise it for what it is. Many people can’t, and that is both the problem and what the protagonists rely upon.

Once again, but for the first time in 2024… We need urgent media reform in this country. It needs to happen this year. The sooner the better.

An outstanding @mrseankelly piece noting media failure, dishonest & dishonourable campaigning, callousness of heart, and epic voter self-delusion.

Have the @abcnews learned nothing? They cut the PM off in a very serious, highly important matter for the nation and explaining in parliament today the wording of the Voice proposal, esp. the inclusion of "executive govt" to go to SPORT !!! Honestly, who decides this????
