Letters to the editor by grassroots journalists are usually the most intelligent analysis of the state of the nation. My go to page first on opening the paper. Some articles from paid reporters are ignored for the drivel they are

AI? On what basis are you assuming any intelligence - artificial or otherwise - in the drafting of editorials?

clakka.bsky.social•43 days ago

Indeed, absurd drivel. As usual Bevan Shields appears to suffer amongst many other maladies, a sever case of 'pot & kettle'. Perhaps he should be renamed 'Conflation Galore' - leader of the 'Slum Estate'.

"Trump has coarsened politics because his vituperation worked, so it is unsurprising that Australian politics has sunk slightly in his wake."

Trumps "vituperation worked"?????

If you call it Lies, Misinformation,Crap and Bullshit...."worked" -then ok I'd buy that description.

SMH - independent ?

scooterbodgie.bsky.social•44 days ago

Well, it is the SMH

ardtarig.bsky.social•44 days ago

SMH is a poor publication

Owned by Nine Entertainment. It's in their name really, they're more interested in entertainment than actual journalism.

Blames it on "the soiled politics of the United States" not the disintegration of MSM reporting to click bait, sound bites and gotchas.

Wouldn't have anything to do with media focus on reporting all of Dutton's brain farts as credible policy? 🤔

Albo is a class traitor and a turncoat! I wouldn't trust him as far as I could kick him !!! P DUDDY is barely human and can't even think for himself !!! Two complete duds that are deeply UNAUSTRALIAN, and have no place running our country !!!

I notice the SMH never opens up blatantly antiALP post for comment.
I have to laugh at the press bemoaning civility in Politics. They allow Dutton to set the tone and never call him out.
The old both sides bullshit.

It was Bevan, so more like NS (Natural Stupidity)...

Much of our political commentary reads like high school assignments trying to match word counts.

"in a surprising new twist"
bahahaha

bcarrington.bsky.social•44 days ago

I was just thinking the same thing

And lack of attribution for pics, and significantly incomplete by-line info on Kean 🤷‍♀️

antpopple.bsky.social•44 days ago

But it is worthwhile ...

... if you're a media organisation that survives on click bait circular reasoning

Australia deserves much better than what's on offer. I've got to the stage in life where the political outlook is grim. Dutton is dangerous and not fit for office. Albanese can't sell a beer to a shearer. Broken Westminster system.

tattieboy.bsky.social•44 days ago

I assume it was written by a dickhead.

nick-higgins.bsky.social•44 days ago

It’s the SMH? What did you expect and why still bother?

Stop encouraging them.

mcnamab.bsky.social•44 days ago

Two from todays “Bevan” Morning Herald and the champion of working Australia,Zionism and Australia Day eats out
What a simplistic unintelligent uninformed individual this bloke is
Meanwhile in the state of “ adult crime adult time” ( template for Duttons plan) Crisafulli has fucked up
