Hacking scandal separate from Australian media debate : Comments

By Brendan Rowswell, published 27/7/2011

The Greens-Labor media inquiry is an unsubtle attempt to bully the media into compliance with their agenda.

ok I now leave this section of OLO.
I how ever want to go on record saying the term lefty has been used more often to denigrate me and my party.
I see no reason other than one of those who began this slander in the form of debate calling for help for intervention.
I will continue to post in other section but question just how much insulting is enough?
I hope Australians will not forget those on both sides of the fence are still Australians.
Also that, no leave it, the use of that term is in my view uncalled for and insulting.

Pheeew. Might get a word in amongst all the kettles calling the pot black.

Just like a lot of the post 9/11 legislation that further intruded into, disrupted and controlled peoples lives, any enquiry into media ownership should only be feared by those who have something to hide. Won't mention the usual cliches about what goes around comes around, karma, good for the goose etc. Won't mention that they were enacted by paranoid governments that were clueless on how to treat a crime as a crime either.

On the bright side of this however, my fridge has never been attacked by terrorists, boat people, Labor, burqa's bearing bandaids, Greenies, dinks, nimby's, mobs, muggles, droids or any invented enemy since John Howard sent me a magnet to protect it. Australia is safe while my Coopers is safe. So there is bound to be an upside if any further liberty depriving legislation is enacted to keep us even safer from the evil media that brainwash the braindead.

Finally an observation about paranoia. Just because you are paranoid does not mean that your thing is not out to get you.
