Why is it that journalists hate Australia and just about any Western nation they work for? They attack everything about the country that feeds them, employs them and gives them the freedoms to do what they do.
Take Gaza for example. The Western reporters reported that over a thousand people were killed in the 'war' and many of these were civilians. As the facts start to come out the numbers appear to peak out at 600 with over 400 of these identified as Hamas fighters. Not sure what the actual children killed figures will be but the 400 the reporters dutifully passed along is obviously incorrect.
Why are our reporters willing to be propaganda mongers for our enemies? Is it to be able to gain access? If so then they are the equivalent of prostitutes, selling themselves to get to information no matter how biased it is. Worse when the truth does come out they will not report it.
It appears that modern journalism means to report the anti-facts in the most sensational way possible. It used to be the standard evening ritual, sit down and watch the news to get some facts about what might be happening in the world. Instead the news has turned into some kind of game show, perhaps titled "find the facts" a game where you see if you can spot the single fact in every episode.
