They very definition of audience capture. This doesn't end well for anyone.
Has anyone ever pivoted to anything faster than 3AW from the Liberal Party to One Nation? To put it in movie nerd terms, it's like when the Cinemania CD ROM was abandoned overnight for the IMDb.
Imagining the bumper stickers on this dude's FJ40 Landcruiser
One Nation's new Victorian leader promoted '15-minute city' conspiracy theory
🚨 SYDNEY BRANE ALERT 🚨 Look at this desperate attempt to generate a Melbourne style true crime podcast hit. Nobody should be "stoked" to be covering a sexual assault case. Also, there's zero mystery or intrigue to the Jones allegations. Go find the next Teachers Pet, this just sucks
Thanks Ben, we get it: Public transport infrastructure investment in NSW = good Public transport infrastructure investment in VIC = bad
What Ben Carroll’s cabinet cuts say about his ‘new direction’ for Victoria
Easy. Because they like her and want to help her. #Auspol
When Pauline Hanson bans journalists from some media outlets from her pressers, why don't the journalists from ALL the other outlets simply walk out in solidarity, and refuse to report anything she has to say? No radio, television, newspaper or online reporting. None. #auspol #JournalismIsNotACrime
Seeking an exemption from my Ms Segal-mandated #SocialCohesion workplace seminar because of my deeply-held beliefs that: a) Human rights are universal, and b) Genocide is bad
Must have missed the referendum on this 'Voice to Parliament' for wealthy white South African religious extremists...hope I don't get a fine! #SocialCohesion
Jillian Segal says her plan is to expand IHRA training “at scale” — to all govt depts & all businesses in the country — & be driven by a new taxpayer funded body - which she reveals is already in the works.😳 What the hell is going on?

I wonder if another article about Jess Wilson’s shoes is imminent?
arguably Albanese is doing a better job implementing Morrison policies than Dutton would have.
Dude is drawing down hard on Victoria's strategic reserve of hotdog costumes here
an autobiographical piece?
The people who have been calling for a change of leadership (who all live in gated communities in Queensland) must be so relieved.
For those playing at home, "senior Liberal moderate" translates from journalist-speak as: "votes with the Hanson racists 99% of the time, but is always extremely polite to me at the Canberra Midwinter Ball"
Senator Bragg (perennially badged as a “senior Liberal moderate” and supposedly one of the sensible ones) says we have a “communist Labor government.” While talking about being in minority government with Phon…
