The Seven Network is a dud investment, has no influence and its journalism is discredited. It has no point or purpose beyond demonstrating how rotten our corporate media is becoming crikey.com.au/2024/04/18/sev…
@BernardKeane @GrogsGamut I'm a Sandgroper and it's simply not true that Stokes has no influence--in fact, he's the organ grinder in WA politics and the politicians, Labor or Liberal, are totally beholden to him, so bad that 'state capture' doesn't do justice to the extent of his baneful influence.
@BernardKeane Crikey... a left wing depository of cosplay Marxists. A bit like the Catholic Church. Divest themselves of personal productivity and facilitation of direct responsibility for the provision of the help, they demand. The taxpayer.. the atheists, compelled parishioner.
@BernardKeane @k_eagar Reminds me of Kerry Packer keeping his Sunday morning current affairs show that no-one watched going, just so he could threaten politicians with smear stories.
@BernardKeane It’s most surprising when you get to observe the corporate elite face to face; that despite the protestations of the left, profitably is not on their minds. What’s on their mind is influence and power.
@BernardKeane The corporate media has always been rotten - it's just that social media make it impossible to hide the stench of the rot at it's core any longer.
@BernardKeane @lloydois “Has no influence”. Have you been to WA recently? He’s trying to install Basil Zempalis as Premier and looks like he will get away with it. And Basil is still on the 7west payroll.
@BernardKeane @darryllarkin And Sky And 9. And, sadly, ABC.
