Once upon a time the tabloids would fat-shame women in the public eye, but apparently the latest fad is muscle-shaming. The victim is still women, though, not the industries that they work in.

Climate change has turned the recovery of a thousand kilometres of sensitive shoreline into a probable permanent loss.
Not front-page news, according to the ABC.
The unfortunate juxtaposition of these two articles, not just on the same day, but literally next to each other on the front page, provides a perfect illustration of two things. Firstly, the ABC’s continuing gaslighting of the Australian public about our gas supplies and prices; and secondly that it’s not an accident. For the gaslighting […]
A display of blatantly partisan bias, in my opinion, served up as news and journalism.
The possible destruction of a millennia-old sacred site for foreign fossil-fuel profits is framed, instead, as necessary to address a “gas crisis”. Shameful.
[Please excuse the slightly chaotic tweet screenshot nature of this post. Twitter won’t provide client software with thread contents past a certain date, and the only alternative is to paste each tweet individually, which is as tiresome for me as it is confusing for you.] They’re definitely on a roll now, in fact the duopoly […]
This would be hilarious if it wasn’t the largest publishing empire in the country in a coordinated attempt to gaslight an entire nation. This isn’t one paper, or one editor, none of them can possibly claim editorial independence when it’s as blatant as this. @Murdoch_RC Make no mistake, the China rhetoric is a key component […]

There’s plenty of hand-wringing about how difficult it was, for FOUR YEARS, to discover […]
Even with the benefit of hindsight, experienced senior journalists keep analysing the wallpaper and ignoring the elephant in the room. There’s plenty here about what a scurvy villain Morrison is, cooking up this scheme to mislead journalists and https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/dec/11/gladys-for-warringah-is-the-latest-salvo-in-morrisons-war-against-an-integrity-commission (shock, horror) denigrate a lawfully constituted body. Absolutely NOTHING about how mainstream media happily ran with […]
