Anyone who lies like fauxmo has no constraints on their campaigning. That Australia's msm consider that to be good campaigning says everything about their lack of intelligence, professionalism & moral compass ie. Not fit for purpose👎🏽👎👎🏼

Well said & well written. It sums up my opinions more articulately & succinctly than I could have written. I have a dilemmas about our msm. Are they that compliant because they are are hopeless? Or, are they corrupt? Or, a bit of both? Are journalists like this because the opportunity for jobs are so limited so their views need to be too?

Morrison was and ad man. It was all he could do and no wonder things transpired as they did.

A failed marketing man. Essentially sacked from the last 2 jobs he had in that capacity.

I thought of Trumpism while reading this.

Sacked from Tourism NZ, sacked from tourism AU, sacked as the PM of Australia. If there's one thing to admire about that shallow waste of oxygen, it's Morrisons' ability to continually fail upwards while lowering standards, bringing down public services and destroying the economy around him while doing so.

It's amazing how deep and far wide the delusions spread. Incredible level of gullibility from many supposedly educated people. Hoodwinked!

It's as if you've distilled the thoughts that had been swirling around in my head through the election campaign and the ensuing weeks . If something was repeated often enough, it would become a truism. Once accepted, another layer of nonsense was added ie We dont know who Anthony Albanese is, he's gaffe prone..I was screaming at the TV and radio and computer screen as I heard the same LNP attack points over and over again..the most offensive was those from the supposedly unbiased ABC.

I think the analogy is off, by a mile. Although I do believe people read and believe what is in the media - many time without thinking about it. And politics is the same - you cant believe the rhetoric until, generally its too late. No labour supporter would have agreed with "People didn't know who Anthony Albanese was" , " He wasn't up to running the country", "His policies may hurt the economy and dramatically increase debt." Therefore the article must be from a non labour perspective or one that believes what ever politician says is true :(
