News Limited bias — again, again and again. If it’s anti-Gillard, it’s big News…Bugger the truth…Just publish…

Glenn Milne at the Walkley awards
…and if there’s nothing around tell Milne to write anything, anything at all. Senior correspondent Barry Everingham on the retracted Glenn Milne story.

Now to the base and baseless Glenn Milne attack on Julia Gillard in The Australian.

A big surprise?

I don’t think so.

This is the newspaper which is part of the conglomerate which thought nothing – nothing at all – of hacking the voice mail of a murdered girl to get a story.

The case of News International and Milly Dowler must never be allowed to gather dust.



So, yesterday, The Australian published, under the by-line of Glen Milne – the height and intellectually challenged writer with an alcohol problem – a story designed to traduce the reputation of Julia Gillard.

Our cousins over at Crikey thundered:

“Glen Milne has egg all over his face after the re-hired columnist filed an error-filled op-ed reviving discredited allegations that Prime Minister Julia Gillard had somehow been an accomplice to her one-time partner Bruce Wilson’s alleged fraud.”

The cousins are wrong.

Glen Milne’s face is always covered in egg (and bullshit permeates most of his stories).

The egg is over the face  of The Australian’s editor for not checking and rechecking Milne’s actionable and, as it turns out, wrong allegations about the Prime Minister of Australia — who is firmly in the sights of all News Limited’s Australian publications and who, in their jaundiced eyes, can do absolutely nothing right.

Not content with having written about the Wilson/Gillard sage four years ago, the thuggish Milne – famous only for his alcohol fuelled brawl at the Walkley Awards – repeated yesterday an allegation about Gillard and Wilson that lawyers for News Limited had, in the previous story, removed because, frankly, it was not true.

continued

Alarm bells started ringing early at the Holt Street headquarters of Brand Murdoch and before 9am the offending piece had been taken down from the paper’s website with an incredible Rupert Murdoch type mea culpa, not unlike the one delivered by the octogenarian publisher in the British House of Commons Inquiry into News limited (which is far from over).

Here’s how The Australian tried to squirm their way out of the mire yesterday:

THE AUSTRALIAN published today an opinion piece by Glenn Milne which includes assertions about the conduct of the Prime Minister.

The Australian acknowledges these assertions are untrue. The Australian also acknowledges no attempt was made by anyone employed by, or associated with, The Australian to contact the Prime Minister in relation to this matter.

The Australian unreservedly apologises to the Prime Minister and to its readers for the publication of these claims.

Milne had not only repeated the lie, he foolishly didn’t have the wit or the guts to check the story with the Prime Minister’s office.

Milne is like that blithering idiot in Sydney, Alan Jones, who steadfastly refuses to let the facts stand in the way of making up any story that makes the Prime Minister look incompetent or small or foolish.

continued

Clive Mathieson, the editor of The Australian told Crikey (amongst other banalities):

“…we’re investigating the Prime Minister’s claim of inaccuracies and regret the PM was not given a chance to respond to the allegations.”

But the pearler from Mathieson was yet to come:

“Glenn Milne will remain a contributor to The Australian.”

Needless to say, this story had Andrew Bolt’s fingerprints all over it.

Melbourne’s own village idiot started the ball rolling on this last weekend and was quickly followed up the chase by a clown called Michael Smith on 2UE.

Strangely, Andrew Bolt’s blog on the Herald Sun website only said this today:

“No politics until further notice. Principles to weigh up.  Faith to keep. Sorry.. [sic]”

Enough is enough of this disgraceful saga — one can only hope the Herald Sun had finally had enough of Bolt and his mischief making.

It’s been years since The Australian was taken seriously by responsible Australian readers and this episode underscores the great need for an Inquiry into the local media and its ownership.

One of the most chilling rumours circulating around Melbourne is that Ron Walker is trying to put together a consortium to buy The Age.

If this is true the future of decent newspapers is in grave danger.

That nasty media, picking on poor Juliar.
It's just not fair.

NO it's NOT fair.

It's a shame you support the billionaires club instead of good hard working Australians.

Obviously dumbed down by Murdoch media.

Poor baby. :(

an image is not a source to the written text. Image - text. Not the same.

If you think they havent been fair in the past, wait for it.......
Gillard's latest serve today of tripe to the media blaming Abbott for the arrival of these latest two boats will send the media into a tailspin.
She continues to go from bad to worse.
Any decent politician would admit their mistake and move on, but not our Juliar.

I know... how embarrassing. But I think she really does think she can blame Abbott for this. What a fail.

I, for one, have no doubt that this whole thing was cynically staged from the outset...

First the Bolt rumours of an expose...then the publication of said article...then the much-publicised retraction and apology...but the libelous contents were left out there in the public domain cos Bolt had simply quoted most of the original article and such was neither removed nor apologised-for...and the controversial publicity was priceless...

Clearly, the idea was to get the rumours out there - and then keep them in the public eye through the scandal or plausible-albeit-contrived-deniability...

So, you don't think that there's equal - if not greater - pressure on Tony Abbott to stop smacking around and secure the authority of the next Federal Govt in relation to the future negotiation offshore processing without the huge hassles and risks of the public humiliation of losing an associated legal battle!?

The Government’s announcement on the media inquiry is another victory for the Corporate News thugs who run the country these days, says JD Lang, who dramatically recreates the last few months of threats and wrangling.

Yesterday, The Government finally announced an inquiry into Australia’s dodgy media. Though it sounded promising, and there was some rejoicing amongst a few gullible people, it was in the end, of course, yet another victory for the grey suited mobsters that run the media in this country, set Government policy and tell us who to vote for.

For months now, sinister revelations from the UK phone hacking scandal have shone a light on disgusting criminal activities sanctioned by Corporation News Executive mobsters in England. Hacking dead girl’s phones. Bullying, bribing and paying off policemen. Vendettas against non-compliant politicians, cosy arrangements with others. They paid off those who would take their shekel and denied all but the other most obvious allegations to try to abort the tide of resentment growing against them, but the truth slowly emerged anyway.

Meanwhile, last year’s Australian election delivered a rarity, a Government that Corp News didn’t select in their editorials. Worse, it delivered some power to a Party the company had previously vowed to “destroy at the ballot box”. The mobsters hated to lose in races they thought they’d fixed well. The campaign it had waged before against the Government, which toppled the previous Prime Minister, was replaced by an ever more relentless and savage campaign in which no lie or slur was too obvious or too distateful not to publish. On contract, out of control shock jocks urged open revolt against the Government and loathsome old crocodiles like Alan Jones openly advocated old school Mafiosi tactics against the Prime Minister — put her in a bag and make her swim with the fishes, he told anyone who would listen, which many did. Few complained.

Finally, Julia Gillard said that Corporation News had some questions to answer. The ensuing fury and disgust made the Corporation – that owns 70 per cent of Australia’s print media interests as well as a cable news network – turn into a News Godzilla. With eyes like burning coals, it climbed to the top of Centrepoint and began bellowing at the top of its lungs, swatting anyone that came too close. Every senior writer for The Australian, the Sun Herald and the Daily Telegraph was cattle-prodded forward by management to pour scorn on the merest suggestion that any improper practices could occur in Australia like those that happened in the UK. That there was any bias or manipulation of the news. In short that there was a need here for any sort of an inquiry into the media in Australia. What happened in Britain couldn’t possibly happen here, they cried! How dare anyone suggest we abuse our power, they screamed! It’s a meaningless political stunt, they bellowed! The worst Government in history has the audacity to blame us for their poor polling, they thundered! Freedom of speech!

continue

And thereby they removed any slight lingering doubts they were out of control and prepared to abuse their power — that was now completely obvious.

Panic set in at domestic Corporation News entity, Limited News. Something must be done, burly executives told each other as they set off for their daily rounds of shakedowns. Who do they think’s running this show, they muttered, while politicians and other useful people cringingly accepted offers they simply couldn’t refuse. Throwing down a copy of the Melbourne Communist Party rag, The Age, the Limited News local boss John Hartigan buzzed his secretary. “Get that red [deleted] in here toots sweet,” he growled, “Tell her to come alone and be in the boardroom in 45 minutes…Yeah and tell her she better not be late, I’m [deleted] busy.”

The Prime Minister arrived 37 minutes later to a board room full of 12 dark suited men seated around a long teak table. Most glowered at her disapprovingly, some shook their heads, a few stared at the ceiling, pointedly refusing to make eye contact. The editor of The Australian, Chris Mitchell, sat with his fists clenched muttering incoherent obscenities, his crazed eyes frantically darting to every corner of the room, as if seeking more elusive enemies to crush. Seated in a deep leather chair at the head of the table, puffing a thick cigar from which wisps of white smoke curled lazily to the roof, The Boss stared at the wall a few metres to the right of Gillard and said nothing for several excruciating minutes. Finally, he put his cigar down and fixed Gillard with a gimlet eye. He spoke in curt deliberate sentences for 42 minutes. Scenarios were unveiled. Threats and promises declared. Gillard stood in a back corner and listened quietly. At the end she was told to leave. Which she did, head down, a fly buzzing in her ear.

continue

Is this your 3rd thread. Good to see you co-operating.

Two weeks later, she announced that maybe a media Inquiry wasn’t so important. Especially not one that had anything to do with looking at the affairs of Corporation News. No-one outside the meeting was remotely surprised.

But then celebrity boxer Glenn Milne changed the tide of events when he decided to dust off from the archives a stock story that had been used by News Limited journalists since 1996 for the occasionally useful purpose of casting Julia Gillard as a criminal — or at least someone who had once slept with one. The standard procedure was to run they story on page one, wait for the inevitable complaint to the feared Press Council, which had its offices on the Corporation News building’s third floor, and then run a one line correction, on page 28 of the paper, four to six weeks later. Glenn Milne had used this story himself a few years earlier and, being something of an artist, was not content with merely rerunning his previous piece. He decided instead to freshen it up with some more incriminating details he had heard from some bloke at the pub – or perhaps had dreamed up in a drunken haze – he wasn’t sure which; either way, it was some good poo. He published in The Australian, cheered on by his loyal but vacant-headed side-kick, Andrew Blot.

For some reason, this hardened Gillard’s backbone for a time. She got angry. The boardroom humiliation was temporarily forgotten. Milne had gone too far, even for News. Stern words were uttered. The Australian withdrew the article from the online edition. An apology was issued! It was not enough, new calls for an Inquiry were heard and, this time, Gillard refused to shout them down. Milne stayed quiet. Blot scrawled in crayon all over the walls of his office, petulantly sulking.

The Boss sat in his top floor office looking darkly down at his domain, chewing the end of his cigar to mush. Was he worried? He needn’t have been.

Some weeks went by and then, yesterday, a media conference was held in Canberra.

The Communications Minister Stephen Conroy said that there would be an inquiry — an independent inquiry, indeed. It would be conducted by an elderly retired judge and someone who had once worked as a journalist, but not for a long time. It would have no power to demand anything or make anyone do anything they didn’t want to. It couldn’t subpoena. It would look at strengthening the Press Council, but certainly not media ownership or anything that might conceivably threaten the interests of the Murdoch mafiosi or break its iron grip over the country. Then it would report to a separate Inquiry, which would make it entirely certain any findings it made would be utterly ignored and left to gather dust on a shelf in an underground Canberra bunker.

continue

The Greens looked pleased. Government backbenchers looked sheepish. The Opposition wailed that it was attack on free speech and quietly wondered what the fuss was all about. The Canberra press gallery looked up briefly and then got back to Tweeting catty comments about politicians’ hairstyles. Corporation News executives laughed uproariously for an hour at least and then went to lunch and didn’t come back into the office until this morning, heads sore but happy. They then went right back to pushing people around and running the country like nothing had ever happened. The Prime Minister quietly explained to her cabinet that it never pays to mess with the family.

In an ivory tower, somewhere, an old man smiled. >:(

Murdoch media in Australia: malign but excisable
Posted On Friday, 09 Sep 2011 By Admin.  
by Alan Austin
Alan Austin says that the Murdoch media network is a malicious influence on Australia — that the nation has a chance of eradicating.

Rarely is a nation faced with a malicious influence which it has the chance to eradicate. Such is Australia’s luck today with Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation, owner of The Australian, Sydney’s Daily Telegraph, Brisbane’s Courier-Mail, Melbourne’s Herald Sun and other ‘news’ outlets.

The Murdoch network in Australia has moved irretrievably away from being a legitimate news provider. It must go.

Essential to free enterprise and democracy is access to information free of distortion. Newspapers are free to say what they will in editorials and opinion pieces, of course. But news data must be untainted.

Most Murdoch publications now openly spruik for conservative politics. Not just in the opinion pieces, but news pages as well. The starkest examples are in the relentless campaign against Labor’s economic stimulus packages.

The last time I paid for Melbourne’s Herald Sun, 11 March 2010, I happened to be speaking that evening in Melbourne on the media. We read the front page story about hot water units provided to a country sports club, headed in capitals ‘YOUR MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN’.

Everyone in the room was furious at the appalling ineptitude of the Government as ‘revealed’ in the report. We then listened to Jon Faine’s interview earlier that morning on ABC Local Radio with the club president. Point by point, he dismissed every ‘damning fact’ as a damnable lie. At the end of the interview, the meeting was seething with anger at the Herald Sun.

The essential elements of the report were simply untrue. This is not a trivial misdemeanour. The Herald Sun is the largest circulation paper in the country. Readers pay for information. What they are sold instead is systematic deception. While international economists marvel at Australia’s success in averting economic disaster as the GFC hit and while environmentalists applaud, the Murdoch media just lie about the programs.

Most Australian journalists honour the Media Alliance code of ethics. All twelve points are now routinely violated by Murdoch employees.

Reporters at Brisbane’s Courier-Mail have been dutifully using the news pages to drive a campaign on tracking sex offenders which targets Premier Anna Bligh. In an email from news director Emma Chalmers leaked to Crikey, Chalmers requested

“…the support of the whole newsroom to keep the campaign going”.
continued

Last November, Herald Sun reporters in Melbourne lied about their identity to ensnare politicians in a British tabloid-like sting. This trashed the last remaining vestige – point 8 – of the Alliance code of ethics:

“Use fair, responsible and honest means to obtain material. Identify yourself and your employer before obtaining any interview for publication or broadcast.”

Several recent developments have marked Rupert Murdoch as the head not just of a network of unethical reporters, but of an organisation whose reporters engage in criminal activity.

News International in April this year admitted liability and ‘apologised unreservedly’ to public figures for the criminal offences of hacking telephones in Great Britain.

These were not isolated acts by rogue reporters. Senior News of the World’s staff were arrested and charged in April. Other charges are likely. Ever since hacking allegations at the News of the World were first made in 2004 senior management has blatantly lied about what happened and what they knew.

Systematic lying by top management seems just as rife Downunder. Last year, Justice Stephen Kaye in the Victorian Supreme Court slammed Murdoch executives for lying to the court.

In his judgment on the wrongful dismissal of Bruce Guthrie the judge said he ‘had reservations about a number of features’ of the evidence of News Limited chief executive John Hartigan. ‘In my view Hartigan was an unreliable witness in respect of the negotiations that proceeded the formation of the contract.’

Kaye was even more scathing of Herald and Weekly Times chief Peter Blunden. “The explanations given by Mr Blunden in evidence,” the judge said, “do not survive scrutiny”.

Following this year’s admissions of criminal conduct in the UK, a video has emerged of Rupert Murdoch refusing to answer and an employee backing down. (First aired in 2009, it has circulated widely since Andy Coulson resigned in January as media instructor to the UK Prime Minister. Coulson had changed desks from senior editor at News of the World to head of Conservative Party media in July 2007.)

The hapless anchor at Murdoch’s Fox News begins enthusiastically: “The story that is really buzzing all around the country and certainly here in New York is that the News of the World, a News Corporation newspaper in Britain, used …” “Ah, I’m not talking about that issue at all today. Sorry,” Murdoch interrupted. “Okay. No worries, Mr Chairman. That’s fine with me.”

continued

The message was clear. News bulletins are to advance specific interests, not to inform citizens about issues “buzzing all around the country”. And that’s fine with Murdoch’s people.

For those who value integrity and the free flow of information, courses of actions are available. According to Bruce Guthrie, defeating News Corp – which he did in court in 2010 – is not impossible.

[Demand action on the Murdoch press by demanding an Inquiry into Australia’s media. Sign the online petition here or join the Facebook page here.]

We can refuse to buy News Corp publications. Writers and other staff can withdraw their services. Advertisers can withdraw custom. Consumers can contact those who advertise in News Corp publications and tell them we will boycott their products or services as long as they do so.

And we can tell our MPs we will not vote for parties which in government or opposition advertise in Murdoch outlets. The current federal Government has strong grounds to do just this, but needs a nudge.

This is a campaign well worth joining by those who recall democracy and free enterprise as it once was. We might even win.

I disagree with that..
I think you're vastly overstating Murdoch's influence on the media...
70% of Sydney papers (or capital city papers) perhaps, but there are a lot of other groups that have almost as much control (if not more) over the other types of media....Fairfax is one that controls far more of the radio than does News Ltd..

Surely you jest? ;D

Ugly news media bias from extremist big mining paid shill Andrew Bolt is a fan of shocking hate speech politician Geert Wilders.

Read morehttp://brokenleftleg.blogspot.com/2008/03/andrew-bolt-geert-wilders-and-radical_28.html

Andrew Bolt, Geert Wilders and radical imams are all dangerous men.
When the racist Dutch politicians, Geert Wilders released his anti-Islam polemic, Andrew Bolt, the Herald Sun's resident clown, decided to poke the bear and put Wilders' video on the Hun web pages.

Yes we do have free-ish speech in this country, but why would Bolt decide to prove it by publishing this extremely dangerous video?

Wilders, like Bolt, and like the radical Muslims, have an very similar ability to de-contextualise the Koran to prove a point. Wilders and Bolt cherry pick sections to "prove" Islam is not a religion of peace, while radical Muslims take tiny snippets of the book to justify violent actions or anti-Christian/Jewish attitudes.

Both groups (radical Islam and extreme conservatism/racism) use similar methods to attract followers, and their support is based on ignorance, suspicion, and identity politics. Fear is their tool, and sensible debate is their enemy.

Where would Bolt be if his followers actually read the Koran and had the ability to interpret it? Where would radical imams be if their followers had a sensible religious framework to understand the text rather than having random violent sections rammed down their throat?

Anyone could cherry pick sections of the Bible and declare that Christianity is a fundamentally violent religion. Sure this would be intellectually childish, and this sort of debate would be understandably condemned, but when it comes to the Koran, our extremist commentators just go for it.

Geert's greatest recruiting officer is Osama bin Laden and OBL would be absolutely thrilled that the Dutch MP has released the film. If Bolt understood this fact, he would not have rebroadcasted the film, and he would not have opened up his blog to ignorant people expressing ignorant opinions.

Like "Islam merely wants to kill all Jews and christians!" Great, and you wonder why some Muslims feel a little bit concerned in this country.

It is a profound lack of knowledge, much of it spread by the likes of Bolt, Wilders, Jones et al, that encourages situations like Camden and Cronulla.

We now have a neo con nazi on the board deleting/moving anything that exposes the LYING Abbott party.

God help us.
