Patrick Carlyon has written many stories on Vic politics for the Herald Sun. After a quick survey of 10 or so (on Google), it is unsurprising to find every single one is slanted with a formulaic attack on Labor plus numerous personal and gratuitous slurs aimed at Dan Andrews.
"LACK OF TRUST IN LEADERSHIP [aka Dan Andrews] SPREADING QUICKER THAN VIRUS"
[No it isn't.]
"Melbournians are angry at their leaders!"
[aka Dan Andrews. And, no. Mostly they are not.]
"Daniel Andrews and his cohort don’t want us to explore the truth. " [WTF does that mean?]
"Why can't Daniel Andrews just say sorry?" [Well, he has.]
"...it sometimes seems unclear whose side Andrews is on." [Seriously]
"Andrews undermines his own authority every day he delivers his press conference." [Poll numbers would say otherwise]
"Andrews’ fumbled attempts at allaying blame have compounded the rage." [I'm sorry, what rage? Only Qanon anti-maskers and fake liberty nuts are "enraged."] "Why won’t he short-circuit the Victorian surge of impotent rage?" [Ah, eyeing another Walkley, eh Paddy?]
"Daniel Andrews has lost the confidence of the people. We have rules in Melbourne where no rules are needed!" [You should be writing these pompous and meaningless stump speeches for the Liberals. Oh, wait. You are!]
These have been a few selections from Patrick Carlyon.
