Title: Stan Grant to resign from Q+A
Post by Brian Ross on May 19th, 2023 at 6:48pm
For years I've been a media target for racism and paid a heavy price. For now, I want no part of it – I'm stepping away :o

Stan Grant steps away from Q+A citing 'relentless' racial abuse, accuses ABC of 'institutional failure' over coronation coverage backlash ::)

Stan Grant is a conflicted half-caste as many of the more rabid ones are. Recently he said, and I quote, "The Crown tried to exterminate my people." First of all, which people are his people. Assuming he was talking about Aboriginal ancestors, he is either ignorant of history and instructions for Governors concerning the natives, or he is deliberately using his celebrity to mislead the public in the run up to the referendum. Either way, he is an arsehole.

Apparently you've posted this comment for no other reason
than to broadcast your own offensive racist viewpoint, and
give it a prominence it doesn't deserve?

And to describe Grant as an "arsehole" requires a lot more
confirmatory evidence in order to give it any actual veracity.

What in particular—in your opinion—justifies your description
of Grant?  Is it based, perhaps, solely on the fact that he's and
Aboriginal, and you despise all Aboriginals?

And if so, is that not the height of racism?  Or are you proud
to be a racist?

Sounds like a conflicted half-caste to me....

Anyway - I scarcely noticed him until he started under the tanning machine and started to rub in the orange, and then somehow morphed from being just another face on TV to being some big spokesperson for all things Aboriginal..... never noticed he was until he said so - same as Ray Martin etc.

I suppose if the heat's too much in that kitchen, you can always bolt for the door.   If he'd remained just another presenter, actually giving a fair summary of all sides of the questions - he'd have done all right..... but he chose the wrong side of both history and the future.

Never noticed the Aboriginality in that old sheila who did the insulting 'welcome to country, guests and never owners' stuff at the NRL last night - again - whiter than I am.... same as the majority of the 'Indigenous' players.

Do your homework and check out Grant's ignorant statement. You sensitive new-age fruitcakes think than anyone of colour must be a saint. Grant's Aboriginality would having him dining on wichetty grubs if it wasn't for the ancestors of the people he despises. Ironically, some of them are his too.

Oh dear... now I'm a "sensitive new-age fruitcake"!    ;D   ;D   ;D

I guess at 76 years of age I should take that as a compliment? Thank you!

Seriously though, I think you'd better quit while you're still a little
ahead of this debate.  You're only digging a deeper racist hole
for yourself to crawl out of... maybe.

And I'm yet to see any legitimate complaints from you about Grant.
Well, other than of course  crude, denigrating insults—for the one
and only reason (apparently) that he's Aboriginal.

Incidentally, Grant is professor of Global Affairs at Griffith University
in Queensland, and a vice-chancellor of Australian-Indigenous Belonging
at Charles Sturt University in NSW.     Presumably then you see
yourself better qualified to debate Aboriginal affairs?   I'd hate to
think you're just another keyboard warrior hiding behind the cover
of anonymity.

BTW, I'm surprised that as you claim to know a lot about Aborigines'
traditional diet that you don't know how to spell witchetty grubs.   Telling?

As most respondents here appear to have very little concept of
Stan Grant's background (other than he's an Aboriginal, and
therefore a legitimate target for racial abuse) I've posted his
LinkedIn résumé below.



"In a 30 year career in journalism. I have anchored major programs
in Australia and internationally. I have reported from more than 60
countries covering the major events of the last two decades: war in
Iraq and Afghanistan, international terrorism, the Israeli-
Palestinian conflict, the Pakistan earthquake, 2005 tsunami, Japan
quake, tsunami and nuclear crisis, the end of apartheid in South
Africa and release of Nelson Mandela, the Northern Ireland troubles
and ceasefire, the death of princess Diana, the hand over of Hong
Kong, a decade covering the rise of china and inside the closed
world of North Korea.

I have won numerous awards including three Walkley awards, two
Peabody awards , Alfred I DuPont award, four Asia TV awards, an
Australian TV logie award, GQ Magazine agenda setter of the year,
International Indigenous trailblazer award, two Australian Academy
of Cinema Television Awards, Australian Screen Producers Award,
Australian Heritage Literature Award, Association of International
Sports Journalists award.

I was previously senior international correspondent for CNN based
in Beijing, Asia, Middle East, international editor for Sky News
Australia, Managing Editor National Indigenous Television, Chief
Asia Correspondent Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and
Professor of Global Affairs Griffith University.

I have published four critically acclaimed and best selling books on
identity and Australian Indigenous history. My focus of research and
writing is around questions of identity, belonging, nationhood. My
specialty is geo-politics, political philosophy, and race studies."

Up until a decade or so ago he never mentioned his Aboriginality.

He's had a great career - what has that got to do with his Aboriginality?

Why is it racist to criticise an individual for the choices they make?

i.e. becoming a born again Aboriginal & tanning it up to make it more convincing

& bagging out the Monarchy, colonisation, the country & system that gave him his education & the opportunity to make a career in journalism & enjoy the rewards & renown he now enjoys. ::)

Not so.  His Aboriginality was acknowledged when he was working

Well, if you have to ask that question, then you're obviously unaware
that Grant was probably the very first Aboriginal person
to make any impact upon—until then—a very white, Anglo media
industry.  He was a ground-breaker.


Gnads wrote on May 21st, 2023 at 12:54pm:

Disingenuous much?  It was not primarily Grant's decision to leave
the ABC.  It was effectively forced upon him under a torrent of
offensive, abusive comments across the media and across the
interwebs.  With 99% of them being based on racism and fear of
"the other".


Gnads wrote on May 21st, 2023 at 12:54pm:

This is a classic example of offensive, ignorant, bigoted racism—
even if you don't recognise it in your own comments here.

Oh please!   Not this tired old rubbish!   You're obviously one of the
older white Australians that refuse to accept that the English settlers
brutalised, raped and killed Aborigines as a matter of course.  Naturally,
Grant and his indigenous peers will tend to be anti-monarchist. 
You need to accept that simple concept as fact.

And as for Grant's career, he's got where he is by sheer hard work and
perseverance in the face of racial obstacles, and determination.

Nobody handed him any of his successes on a platter;  he simply took
advantage of the educational system available to any other non-
indigenous person.

Do you genuinely believe what you're saying here?


Quote:
Having been lauded for his response to a young female Collingwood
supporter calling Sydney Swans star Adam Goodes an "ape" over
the fence, McGuire then suggested on his breakfast radio show that
Goodes could be involved in the promotion of the musical 'King Kong',
sparking outrage from Goodes and many others in the media and
sporting worlds.
The Conversation, 31 May 2013.


And the unnamed Sydney Roosters fan who called Latrell Mitchell
a "black dog" most definitely was NOT referring to the Black Dog
that's commonly used to describe depression.

LOL... seriously?  If you were Aboriginal, there's NO way you'd
"proudly" take on either of those racial slurs as your "trademark".
You're making that absurd claim from behind the safety of a white
man's keyboard.  And you'd not have the courage if you were to
see either Goodes or Mitchell across the street to shout at them
with racial abuse.

And yes—you ARE a bigot.      Wear the badge proudly.

the ABC.  It was effectively forced upon him under a torrent of
offensive, abusive comments across the media and across the
interwebs.  With 99% of them being based on racism and fear of
"the other".

... becoming a born again Aboriginal & tanning it up to make it more convincing

This is a classic example of offensive, ignorant, bigoted racism—
even if you don't recognise it in your own comments here.

Oh please!   Not this tired old rubbish!   You're obviously one of the
older white Australians that refuse to accept that the English settlers
brutalised, raped and killed Aborigines as a matter of course.  Naturally,
Grant and his indigenous peers will tend to be anti-monarchist. 
You need to accept that simple concept as fact.

And as for Grant's career, he's got where he is by sheer hard work and
perseverance in the face of racial obstacles, and determination.

Nobody handed him any of his successes on a platter;  he simply took
advantage of the educational system available to any other non-
indigenous person.


What's obvious is you wouldn't know ....

I'm younger than you Methuselah

but I'll ask you these questions -

what has any of that history got to do with or what affect does it have on Stan Grant in the present?

What would Stan be doing now had that not occurred?

What makes Stan any different from any other successful person who has worked hard & became a success?

Don't tell me it's just because he's an Aboriginal or part thereof?

Why is it that you think dragging up the past to run it like a never ending guilt trip has any merit in reconciliation when all it does is widen the division?

Just as the Voice will do.

What racial obstacles were put before him in the Journalism trade?

I think that's an over used cop out.

If Grant is so staunch in his Aboriginality why did he leave his 1st wife (Aboriginal) for a white woman?

...I mean - Adam Goodes and the Ape Man reference had nothing to do with his Aboriginality... just a look...... the beard etc... as for Lateral.... the 'black dog' was a reference to how depressing it is to see him carve up the opposition...

Do you genuinely believe what you're saying here?


Quote:
Having been lauded for his response to a young female Collingwood
supporter calling Sydney Swans star Adam Goodes an "ape" over
the fence, McGuire then suggested on his breakfast radio show that
Goodes could be involved in the promotion of the musical 'King Kong',
sparking outrage from Goodes and many others in the media and
sporting worlds.
The Conversation, 31 May 2013.


And the unnamed Sydney Roosters fan who called Latrell Mitchell
a "black dog" most definitely was NOT referring to the Black Dog
that's commonly used to describe depression.


Grappler Deep State Feller wrote on May 22nd, 2023 at 7:20am:
If someone called me something like that I'd take it on proudly as my trademark... you know... misogynist, bigot...

LOL... seriously?  If you were Aboriginal, there's NO way you'd
"proudly" take on either of those racial slurs as your "trademark".
You're making that absurd claim from behind the safety of a white
man's keyboard.  And you'd not have the courage if you were to
see either Goodes or Mitchell across the street to shout at them
with racial abuse.

And yes—you ARE a bigot.      Wear the badge proudly.

            



The unnamed Sydney Roosters fan was unnamed because he was a minor & it wasn't a criminal offence .....

the same is applied to minors who commit serious crimes, sometimes heinous crimes.

Why should that kid be named & then hammered in public or on social media by all the people offended for Latrine Mitchell?

Would you be happy if he was then hounded until he took his own life?

He was the highest paid entertainer in the world -
loved by Blacks and Whites before
all the woke nonsense hit us.

https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Jolson

Jolson was America's most famous and highest paid entertainer in the 1930s.
Jolson sang and acted in the first (full length) talking movie, The Jazz Singer in 1927.
He starred in many other musical movies in the 1930s.
A movie about Jolson's life, The Jolson Story, won Oscars in 1946.

Many years ago, I would reprimand someone who was so liberal, he did not care about the situation between Western and non-Western society. I told him, he would probably be one of those that would shout "Allah Ackbah" at one of those rallies supporting Islamic terrorism. He tried to correct me saying that it was "Allahu Ackbah", followed by a "you idiot". It was as if he missed the point about me associating him with the terrorists. Plus, he basically confirmed his sympathy for Islamic terrorism.

It is unnecessary to go overboard with tanning make up. Both Donald Trump and Stan Grant are guilty of this. Both seem to not realise that they both look ridiculous. Why does it matter? Both look pretentious. The is a sense that they are trying to cover up their inadequacies.

As for being made less of a human being, on the other end of the scale, there are people who use skin-whitening creams. Indians have a thing about wanting to look more white. Does skin-whitening make Indians less human?

You are assuming he has control over what the Make-Up person puts on his face.  Then you have the problem colours under normal lights look different to how they look under TV lights.  Trump was an idiot and it shows in his fake tanning colouring.  Grant seems more of a victim than anything.  As I said, only a Racist would care.  Are you a Racist, Unsub?   ::) ::)

Well, I tend to stick to my own racial group in terms of dating. Does that count? I tend to celebrate cultures that mainly originate in European societies. Does that count? I have a tendency to think that different races have differing intelligence and abilities. That should count. So, yes, I think I would consider myself a racist.

why do most of these mostly white genetically 'abos' ever acknowledge their non-abo ancestry. it seems like a pretty strong indictment of the concept of white privilege that people who are genetically mostly white identify entirely as non-white just bc they have a small amount of non-white ancestry. why would you do that if white privilege was actually real.

Stan had no right to hijack a funeral for his own political aims.


Comment from another site:

Stan Grant and the ABC. Honestly the ABC now blaming their opposition media. If Stan Grant has mental health issues I hope he gets the help he needs, however isn’t this a case of cause and affect. What you put out comes back to you? Stan Grant has been using his position and been allowed to use his position on a taxpayer funded national broadcaster to push his anti white views to the public. The ABC in it’s charter is not supposed to take sides but be neutral. All we have seen for many years is leftwing propaganda from the ABC and its hosts and interviewers.
Grant wanted to be on the Coronation report so he could deliberately turn it into a platform he and others could use to their advantage. He was allowed todo that by the powers that be and when their is a public backlash, the public are blamed for self inflicted reactions.
People in the industry need to recognise that they have great responsibility to the public - ALL not some. These platforms are not to be hijacked for personal grievances.
There are many ways, as he shows every week to get his one-sided Q&A show out there. No need to hijack the Coronation.
As for the ABC staff walk out and protest, sickening.

Hello - what was racist?

If you even have to ask that question Bobby, then it's more than
obvious that you have no concept of what the words "racist" or
"racism" even mean in the 21st century.

You seem not to appreciate that a white man wearing blackface in
1922 was considered by the predominantly white American
population as perfectly normal—and clever or funny.   Or that
African-Americans were largely employed only in menial jobs that
were seen as beneath the dignity of their white bosses, and the
wider society.

You might like to check out this site to appraise yourself of just
how offensively blacks were treated 100 years ago in the US, in
particular.  Lynchings of blacks were still occurring as late as 1939
in the US...   amazingly only 6 years before I was born!

             Black Americans 1929-1941.
            
And now, a century later in Australia, Stan Grant has been subjected,
covertly but often openly, to a similar form of racism—simply
because of his race.       And yes, I know he was attacked primarily
for his colonisation comments during the Coronation broadcast
on the ABC, but had similar comments been made by a white,
Anglo Australia, then the outrage would've been not a fraction of
that generated by a black man.

Oh dear... are you just playing dumb, or what?  Grant is "different"
from other people because he's not a conservative, white, Anglo
man or woman—men and women who never had to contend with
covert racism throughout their career-building period;  who've
never faced cowardly, aggressive, ignorant racial slurs on social
media or in the printed media.

People such as Ray Martin, Jenny Brockie, David Speers, Ellen Fanning,
David Koch, Leigh Sales, George Negus, Annabel Crabb, Terry Willesee,

Oh... wait... they're all white.  What a surprise!

any rate, there are hundreds (thousands?) of Aboriginal men married
to white women.  And if—as you appear to imply—you think that Aboriginal

Your Racism is showing, Bobby.  Not funny at all.  Wasn't funny when Matty used the same clip.  Tsk, tsk, tsk... 

Hello - what was racist?

If you even have to ask that question Bobby, then it's more than
obvious that you have no concept of what the words "racist" or
"racism" even mean in the 21st century.

You seem not to appreciate that a white man wearing blackface in
1922 was considered by the predominantly white American
population as perfectly normal—and clever or funny.   Or that
African-Americans were largely employed only in menial jobs that
were seen as beneath the dignity of their white bosses, and the
wider society.

You might like to check out this site to appraise yourself of just
how offensively blacks were treated 100 years ago in the US, in
particular.  Lynchings of blacks were still occurring as late as 1939
in the US...   amazingly only 6 years before I was born!

             Black Americans 1929-1941.
            
And now, a century later in Australia, Stan Grant has been subjected,
covertly but often openly, to a similar form of racism—simply
because of his race.       And yes, I know he was attacked primarily
for his colonisation comments during the Coronation broadcast
on the ABC, but had similar comments been made by a white,
Anglo Australia, then the outrage would've been not a fraction of
that generated by a black man.



You know nothing about Al Jolson.
Black people adored him -
he helped Black people get jobs in show business.     ::)

Lets explain something because you never seem to take note of much written here.

I'm 67 .... that's still younger than you ... yet old enough to know you're talking through your southern gate.

So no ... I'm not acknowledging your superior worldly wisdom because I fear you have exactly the opposite.

Grant is not suffering any racism today ... he's suffering criticism, he doesn't like that so he's playing the race card. He wasn't suffering any racism throughout his childhood & his education which has seen him into his current career. His claims are just a chip on his shoulder to garner support from softcocks like you.

So I don't believe he suffered any discrimination or racism along the way. There are Italians, Maltese & Middle Easterners darker than him.

Again NO ..... Grant is not different from other people .....that's complete bollocks because he is also of white anglo descent .... but like so many he doesn't acknowledge it for convenience.
He's as traditionally/culturally Aboriginal as me. ;D


Quote:
who've
never faced cowardly, aggressive, ignorant racial slurs on social
media or in the printed media.


You're joking right? He's not Robinson Crusoe in that dept. & that doesn't just happen to people of Aboriginal descent .... it happens to white anglo as well you wanker.

And when Grant started his career " social media" was in it's infancy.

I bet you eat a lot of tripe meals because you certainly talk it.

Irreconcilable differences?  ;D That hoary old chestnut ey?

Which means he was playing up ... hiding the sausage with Tracey Holmes.

There are a lot of Aboriginals who believe they should only marry within their race...... many vocal activists(or are they racists)

I agree you should be able to fall in love with & marry anyone from any background.

And I know that the most famous black sportsmen, actors, businessmen & their female counterparts - a big majority marry white women & men.

Yet when they have children .... they're always black ..... & their partners racial background is ignored.

Stan Grant is a prime example, so is Meghan Markle, so is Anthony Mundine..... so are so many others.

Why is that? Why don't they acknowledge their white ancestry like Jacinta Price does openly?

So in a nutshell Geoffrey you've got it wrong again.

When people blink, it is not just a matter of watering the eyes so that they don't sting. It is a tell-tale sign that there is some kind of emotive response during a speech. Watch how Stan Grant blinks at certain points during his speech. He blinks during moments when he is micro-repressing his feelings, because he is at some odds with the details. Other times, he has a prolonged stare -- indicative that he means what he says.

You can tell by his blinking patterns that he has a lot of selfishness. He does not really care for his "people". There seems to be some kind of contempt for his own family, although not much. He lied about being gone for "a little while". He will be on a long break. And the "love" he talks about is a lie. It comes off as more of a challenge against his 'enemies', and he is prepared to take them on. There is also a hidden meaning that his "people" are going to be his enforcers against his enemies. Although, I figure Stan is just using them, and has contempt for them being not as fortunate as him.

No. You would have to be pretty naive not to be able to read between the lines. Even the most casual viewer would see the strange nature of Stan's message. It is a real jumbled up and peculiar way of saying something. This, which gives rise to the idea that it is a hidden threat.

No. You would have to be pretty naive not to be able to read between the lines. Even the most casual viewer would see the strange nature of Stan's message. It is a real jumbled up and peculiar way of saying something. This, which gives rise to the idea that it is a hidden threat.



No, you're deranged.  So he was a little emotional during that speech.  So what? he should be. It's the end of a tough few weeks for him and for him the decision to leave is life changing.  The only threat was in your head.

Well, I'd say this qualifies as the most reprehensibly racist
comment we're going to see today.  And this from someone
who claims that their loathing for Grant has nothing to do
with his aboriginality!

And of course, we all know that this sort of racism is only
ever voiced from behind the anonymity of a white keyboard
warrior's desk.   Given the chance to say this sort of thing
face to face with an Aboriginal person—such as Grant—all
we'd hear would be an awkward silence.

      >:(



I've always had a lot of respect for yourself and your posts, Geoff, but you're way off target on this call.
I've been aware of Stan Grant since his days as a tabloid hack as anchor to Real life and Today Tonight

He was a tabloid hack back then,
As he's a tabloid hack now

Should I say I think he's a good reporter - BECAUSE he's black ?

Of course, he wasn't an Aboriginal, back then

Or, at least, didn't go public with it







Stan Grant is widely believed to be based on the character Mike Moore,
from the newsroom satire, Frontlinie



* or was it the other way round ?

Perfectly correct ...... the demands will never end - anyone who thought that a few years of affirmative action and preferential schooling standards etc would 'equalise' women and make them content with genuine equality should know full well that every step stolen is just the springboard for the next one and the next and the next.... and the demands never, ever end, and nor does the perpetual crybullying of being 'victims'.....

Like dealing with children, you have to say NO and mean it at some point - not just keep giving in to their childish demands for everything for nothing as if by some right.

None of this will end well...............

If I was deranged, I would not have responded in the first place. Stan Grant is an educated man. He has been in journalism (or associated with such) for over 30 years. Mr Grant is not an idiot. He is a professional person and knows how to manipulate an audience.

As such, even for a professional journalist, he shows more tells than he really should, at this level of media publicity. Perhaps you should take more note of this video of Mr Grant's farewell address to see it for what it is. Stan is laying down the law to people who have had disagreements with him. Those in opposition to Stan's position have been given a message to not mess with him. But, he has worded the message in such a way that he cannot be legally held accountable for the implicit nature of his message.

I don't know Stan Grant. I do not know what he is facing in terms of personal abuse. But, I can tell you that the disposition of Mr Grant is such that he is obviously frustrated with something outside of his workplace. In a month's time (perhaps longer) we will get an idea of what MR Grant is going through. Else, we can continue to assume that it is none of our business.

"John", if you were playing poker against me, you would be broke at the end of the night. I do not care what kind of shades you wear to cover the pupil dilation of your eyes. You would end up having such a tell, that I bet we would all take turns relieving your of your betting chips.

You are missing the issue here. I am saying that Mr Grant has made a coded message to his enemies. Stan Grant is being professional about his message, in a way that the casual viewer will see it as a dignified goodbye message. But, if you read between the lines, you can see that it is a rallying cry. Maybe Stan has considerable reason to be making such a message. I don't know him or his circumstances. However, if the abuse to him and his family is serious, I think it is well planned by Stan to keep himself restrained in that way. Even the type of leaning in his chair showed that Stan was indicating that the message goes passed the general audience and at a targeted listener.

No such thing has been on this continent.

Clans, tribal groups yes ... nations no.

It has been a convenient appropriation from Indians & Inuit peoples of the North American continent.

Look up the correct meaning of Indigenous ... not what it's been appropriated to mean now ...

being born on this continent as a 4th generation makes me indigenous ... & despite my mixed ancestry going back beyond 173 years ... I am 1st  & foremost Australian.

And shyteloads of men & women gave their lives for that to happen & remain so.

No such thing has been on this continent.
