I feel like Im constantly asking myself this question did something change in this country? Did something change, that the standard for behaviour now is not I have to do the right thing or I have to do what I promised I said I would do, but instead how much can I get away with?I think that, from what I hear people say on 7.30 Australians are sick of this kind of situation.Theyre sick of banks gouging their accounts with fees and charges while somehow missing large scale money laundering, thats funnelling millions of dollars overseas to terrorism or child exploitation.Theyre sick of highly profitable nursing homes taking money from families, and then neglecting or abusing mum or dad.Theyre sick of financial advisors who promise to take peoples life savings and help them pay for their retirement, knowing the entire time that theyre fleecing them.I think the unemployed, students, pensioners were pretty sick of being harassed by a powerful government department to repay debt that they never actually even owed in the first place.People are tired of private health insurance constantly upping fees, then you go to a specialist and they go oh sorry its not covered by private health.Theyre sick of telecommunications companies that promised the world when you sign up for the Internet, and then when youre having a problem with it and it wont work, they wont pick up their phone to answer your call in any kind of timely fashion.Theyre sick of rich multinational companies underpaying their workers and then not even having the common courtesy to ring people when those workers are killed on the job.Theyre sick of priests abusing children in their care, or scoutmasters.

Its men.And we are not doing a good enough job in this country, as you will see, any night when you watch 7.30, of looking after the least powerful members of our society. The Australian Broadcasting Corporation, affectionately known as Auntie, or as I prefer the Australian Bolshevik Collective is long overdue for the chop. But back to Sanders, whom Sales quizzed about Trumps notorious pussy-grabbing comment of 2005, but she didnt put questions to Hillary along similar lines. Conservative British MP Simon Fell rejectsclaims by Opposition Leader Peter Dutton that the UK does not have capacity to build a new class of nuclear-powered submarine for Australia under the AUKUS program. Thisfemale journalist, like many others, is certainly not immune to sexist attacks just for taking a progressive stance on IA.

[37]Reade toldThe New York Timesfor an April 12 article that when she pulled away from Biden, he looked puzzled and said, Come on, man, I heard you liked me.

Shes very unprofessional! I well remember her fawning over Turnbull after he knifed Abbott in the back. Please mention all this next time you trot out Powell as your Republican source. Does that qualify as Australian content? We built our newsroom to cover one [fake] story, and we did it truly well. Next unpack: Sales cant believe that Trump ex-executives would tittle-tattle to the media (she needs to get out more) and yes, the media (especially her ABC) does lie to defame Trump. But despite the bleak predictions, she says we still have time to save the world. While Sales is a lioness tackling an ex-press secretary across the seas, I cant imagine her similarly clawing Premier Dan Andrews, for example, about his lie one of so very, very many that curfews were medically recommended: Mr Andrews, was that a display of lying, ignorance or insanity?[ii] In any event, Sales question to Sanders was not genuinely seeking an answer.

Managing editor Michelle Pini considers Leigh Sales' recent calling out of so-called Leftist Twitter users. Microwave transmission and repeater stations with or without satellite technology mean virtually any point in the country can be seamlessly joined into a vast efficient network costing less than one years budget of the massive top-heavy sheltered workshop for neoMarxists and the ABC has become.
