      You may not appreciate the sentiment but I believe your journalism has become too important to be presented only on this platform. Surely you must have been asked to also be a column writer on mainstream press and assuming this is correct why have you not accepted this? Conversely, if you haven't been asked the press here really is f'd.

      She was happy to be the face of the Murdoch fox in the ABC's henhouse.
      In her shitty commentary on the decades-based show, the best she could say of Whitlam was just that he was "very controversial"

Just an ABC political jurno hack that got to host a couple of not very watchable or memorable shows. I saw her on insiders recently and she lived up to my expectations. As a general rule, if she is on a show I switch over.

Because then people won't discover what a shit job the MSM do with all the access, money and brand recognition they have.

      If you're lacking inspiration or talent then a dirty portmanteau is always the go: Naughty Jordies could morph into "The Nordy List" for example.
      I reckon spoonerisms are where it's at, even if they aren't catchy enough to use as celebrity a couple moniker. "Jaunty Fraudlies" would be be my nomination for Jordie's naughty list.

    @friendlyjordies - the biggest hypocrisy being missed (apologies if you did call out) is that if you didn't call Flint these names, then Annabelle Crab tweeting her as those names is actually the person calling her that. Is she now shocked and depressed about herself? Also why is it ok she pushed these insults into the public space, and probably a audience that would next see your commentary, but not ok for you?

    I started studying media and journalism after I finished high school. I found out without the editors approval (who is paid by the top news outlets- all owned by Murdoch, Packer and Rinehart - or other conglomerate merger media companies of billionaires).
    I was very disgusted with the nature of the profession as I had long wanted to become an investigative journalist. (Such as yourself).
