If you're a reporter, please stop referring to RFK Jr and his cronies as "vaccine skeptics." They're not skeptical. Skepticism would be fine. Skeptics look at evidence and can be persuaded. These people are extremist anti-vaccine cranks, and that's how news organizations should describe them.

Blowing up your small-town writers festival because your local university needs to crack down on free speech because there’s a genocide we can’t talk about is so utterly on-brand for Australian culture. Cowards and fools 3-deep at the canapés tray

"Ireland thought it could move on from its painful history, that we had left it behind once a workable peace was achieved. We did not know that we would have to keep talking about it, not for ourselves, but for others." 👇

Won’t name the coffee shop. But $7.80 is well overs for a large cappuccino, yes? Certainly my wallet thought so!

i ask you to judge me by the enemies i have made and the unhinged things they say about me on sky news. (the irony that the CEO of an astroturf misinformation vehicle would say these words on rupert murdoch’s network is not lost on me.)

“You’ve put Jacinta Price in charge of government efficiency.” “Yes, Brian. It’s a very important portfolio.” “Why? She has had to pay back expenses more than a dozen times.” “In that case, she’ll know what to look for, Brian.”

The only political party in Australia where being found rolling drunk in your suit on the footpath swearing into your mobile is a winning job interview strategy. Welcome to Pauline Hansen’s One Nation party. 😒 [from the SMH]

It says something that there is no public clamour for a government response to the Daily Telegraph’s ‘undercoverjew’ operation. This is because the only source of public clamour in this country is news corp.
