COVID-19 - Thread

Of course she understands - it’s just catering for the audience, creating some outrage to keep ratings up and bucks coming in. Not a whole lot different to the likes of Tucker Carlson despite being ‘the other side’.

That's why I say both sides are fucking idiots. Both are the same shit pushing their agendas. Ones not better than the other.

I'll go as far as saying you can't call the news "news" anymore.

Should be called "opinions" or even more accurate, "paid agendas".

Not to mention it’s as fake as wrestling.

I was once working with a Channel 7 newsreader who most people would know. We were recording promos for ‘Tonight on 7 News’ to be played on radio.
Anyway, one day an old lady in Redfern had died - some druggo had broken into her house and I don’t remember the details but she died.

So running through the script, the newsreader says (off air) ‘Old bird knocked off courtesy of drug fucked weirdo’. When we recorded, the voice of sincerity kicked in and suddenly the story was ‘Outrage as defenceless pensioner dies at the hands of heartless criminal’. News can be spun any number of ways…

I remember when a friend's girlfriend worked for North Sydney council. They had a council charity event on in the park. Right before the event started, it started to rain. So she rushed out an bought a marquee.

The next day one of the current affair programs had one of their reporters holding a $2 umbrella saying, "council spent $200 on one of these"

Ha - ACA.
Half knew a producer there once through a job I was doing at the time and one day saw him at the pub, introducing him to another mate of mine who was a real estate agent. They ended up swapping numbers as they were both Manly fans and were going to catch up at the footy (yes, fair question, why was I socialising with Manly fans). Anyway, a few days later my agent mate calls me and says ‘That bloke you introduced me to - he rang me asking if I knew any dodgy landlords / tradies / anyone at all as they were looking for stories and could I help’. Safe to say they never ended up catching up and my agent mate thought ‘Jesus - how low can you go’. Which proves that maybe some Manly supporters have some decency. Maybe .

Does this **** that's married to a **** actually think she matters?

Nope she just spins the shit to keep the paycheck rolling,personally id like 2 get paid a million plus a year to have an opinion ,and i would have a lot of fun upsetting people on the way .

The article is a classic hahaha

Lisa Wilkinson advocating for Covid rules divorced from reality

Channel 10’s Minister for Health spent the weekend penning her latest doomer manifesto. Why does she wish to stay under the Covid doona? James Morrow asks.



Those doonas must be pretty snugly in Balmoral. Otherwise, why else would Lisa Wilkinson wish to stay under one?

Not content to act like a normal Sydneysider and enjoy the weekend’s respite from La Nina or head off to a Hottest 100 barbecue, Channel 10’s Minister for Health instead spent the weekend penning her latest doomer manifesto.

Australia’s Covid situation, Wilkinson said Sunday night to an audience of 38 viewers and 147 cats, was a “bin fire”.



Well, quite simply because Australians are getting on with life in the face of an omicron outbreak that is wildly contagious but for the vast majority of people rapidly heading towards “just the flu” territory.

How much better would it be, said Wilkinson, if we were like New Zealand where under new rules announced to cope with a virus so deadly people often don’t experience any symptoms at all, household close contacts may have to spend 24 days under house arrest.

Bin fire, by the way, is a favourite Lisa-ism.

Back in March, she called Prime Minister Scott Morrison a “bin fire”.

In August, she called then-Premier Gladys Berejiklian’s leadership a “bin fire”.



You would think that sharing a house with serially published author of bonza you-beaut Aussie legends Peter FitzSimons, she might have tripped over a thesaurus from time to time.

But while the pandemic has been tough on all of us, leading even the most sober commentators to occasionally overreact, Wilkinson certainly has form.

Which does lead one to wonder why so many news outlets seem keen to repeat her gloomy sermonettes as anything other than a cry for help. With her show The Project’s ratings in the toilet, certainly most Australians aren’t listening to her.



Remember her regular diatribes last year against then-Premier Gladys Berejiklian?

“Gladys Berejiklian makes no restrictions … people wanted a hard lockdown!”, she demanded last August, presumably wishing for a Dan Andrews-style ring of steel, curfew, and spirit-breaking policing of playgrounds and takeaway coffee cups.

In one she slammed Berejiklian for instituting a “soft lockdown”.



In another she said Berejiklian should “step aside” if case numbers did not come down.

It’s worth noting that Wilkinson never once called for Labor’s Dan Andrews to resign during Victoria’s many crises, but that’s another story.



Instead, she apologised to Victoria for their lockdown, saying it was a direct result of Sydney’s failure to lockdown quickly.

The fact is, the lockdowns and curfews she advocated increasingly look divorced from reality. Melbourne had six of them, spent longer under restriction than just about any other city in the world, and came out worst in Australia.

Go figure.



More than that they would have landed hardest on people at the opposite end of the income scale from the $1.7 million a year Wilkinson.



Imagine being the new migrant forced to pack the micro-herbs in a Delta-struck warehouse to be shipped out to Wilkinson’s local gourmet shop – an essential service, don’t you know – and then return at the end of your shift to a crowded apartment with no backyard?



Talk about a bin fire.

I laughed pretty hard. James Morrow is a bit of a nut job though. Nice bloke though. He's friends with some of my close mates. You'd think that would be enough reason to hold back, but I have called him a nut job to his face. But we still got along.
