What a storm in a teacup !
What are they putting in the water in Melbourne ?
They seem to lost their perception of balance.
A slight puff of wind and they fall over.

Has it reached the stage that such nonsense is cheap journalism ?
I know that newspapers are have a tough financial time and perhaps TV
is now in the same boat and they can get days and days of pages of
print for no expenditure.
Surely in the middle of an election there was something better to spend their time on.

Amazing how quickly the feminist elite in the media, public bureaucracy and academia can organise to protect and extend the everlasting victimhood. Everlasting victimhood that their affirmative action entitlements and sources of income depend on of course.

Tracey Spicer for instance, a very well paid journalist with a sinecure at the ABC and her own media company - proof one would assume that she like the others complaining are doing very well thank you (no thanks given, never, just kidding) - damned McGuire with the by now familiar words and apparently well-rehearsed rhetoric from the feminist echochamber.

Spicer,
"ABC TV presenter Tracey Spicer told news.com.au the AFL’s response to the McGuire incident was “pathetic”...

“The media — in this case, Triple M — should impose a sanction or penalty on Eddie McGuire. Frankly, he should be taken off air. As the national convenor of Women in Media, I find it reprehensible that a female journalist is referred to in this way. It’s no wonder women only make up nine per cent of sports reporters in this country.

“As consumers, we can vote with our feet, ears, eyes, purses and wallets. Don’t go to Collingwood games. Don’t listen to Triple M. Turn off the Millionaire Hot Seat. Boycott anything to do with him.
“Our steering committee at Women in Media plans on approaching board members of both the AFL and Triple M, to take this matter further".

Censorship. Thought control. Forget freedom of speech where there are careers and $$ to protect.

The language chosen by Spicer and others proves how essential the highly political DV campaign was and is, to so many very well off white, educated, middle class feminists who are determined to retain and increase the advantages and privilege they inherited and have always enjoyed.

As with Gillard and her prepared misogyny speech, it is apparent the guns were already loaded and primed for a suitable male celebrity target. That they fired the salvos as one over such a trivial jibe says volumes about feminism and the elite who direct and benefit from it.

Strangely enough the feminist hatred response to Eddie is far more vile than the actual joke. Somehow they think they have a right to spit out venom and scream victimhood when someone tells a joke. Many of them cheered when our tax payer funded propganda depicted Abbott having sex with a dog. Such outrage over a joke. Oh well I suppose it confirms their victimhood.

Watch this advertisement for a salad-dressing where the lady gets electrocuted every time she tells a lie (that she added this-or-that ingredient herself rather than that it was already part of the dressing): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDdeY-1lr_c

How would that go in Australia...?

Here is the sensitive, easily offended Tracey Spicer talking about men and men's bits on 'that' site,

http://www.mamamia.com.au/tracey-spicer-confessions/

Spicer's vulgarity and jibes, her freedom of speech is not for men to enjoy though. That is the double standard of the educated, white, middle class elite who ARE feminism and use it to protect, maintain and extend their already extensive privileges.

All other women are lesser beings, 'useful idiots' for the white middle class elite to ride on the shoulders of and scoff at at their leftist Emily's List soirees. Hey, its 'networking', don't call it for what it is, left elitists playing favourites.

Feminists' care factor for elderly women or (say) women in those 'Struggle Streets'? NIL.

Maguire is a bully but it was the men around him that were the real victims.

Not content to ridicule another person whom he disagrees with he then tried to co-opt his ‘mates’ in order to make the attempt to humiliate even more aggressive. Some backed him up and some declined to both during the event and in the ensuing comments afterward.

Some of these men would have been afraid of the consequences for themselves if they did not support him because he wields power over many people. Some may have lost their jobs if they did not support him.

Wilson was ridiculed but ridicule never killed anyone. It does not mean that it is OK to ridicule either men or women but it has to be put into perspective. Being ridiculed is one thing – losing your job is far more serious.

If women like Spicer had any credibility they would have pointed this out and shamed Maguire for the bully he is but they do not have that kind of human perspective. They only have opportunistic eyes for women ‘victims’. They do not care what happens to people only what happens to women.
