My roundup of German-speaking news outlets to gauge that Scott Morrison's reputation is entirely in the toilet

#ClimateChange #MorrisonFires #OzInTheIntlPress ping @ScottMorrisonMP
@ScottMorrisonMP Tagesschau

Amidst the worst catastrophe, PM on family holidays. He apologized. But he refuses to accept criticism of his climate policies.
@ScottMorrisonMP My favorite today (tweeted separately) - opinion piece in "Süddeutsche Zeitung"

"Hopeless" (freely translated) - headline pun

Aus PM belongs to power tripper, shortsighted policies hurt entire planet. National goals above anything

Condemning stuff
@ScottMorrisonMP Der Spiegel discusses the implications of cancelling your Australia trip in accordance with the German law.

This bushfire will have a massive economic effect. Morrison should have spent money a bit less on coal & co.
@ScottMorrisonMP Frankfurter Allgemeine
"Whose fault is this fiery inferno?"

in one paragraph (this is poetry):

"(Morrison)... As tactful as the fire itself". This paragraph is tripping with acidic, semi-veiled criticism - German can pack so much contempt into nice words.
@ScottMorrisonMP Der Tagesspiegel

PM Morisson (sic) refuses stricter climate policies.

Bushfires continue to devastate Australia. Climate activist Greta Thunberg accuses SM to do nothing. He denies this accusation.

THE WEST & THE MISERY OF SYRIA

The West had the goal of removing Bashar al-Assad President of Syria long before 2011 when the blood-letting in Syria began.

This desire motivates all the bias, propaganda & skewed reporting seen since.

The West simply cannot relinquish this goal
THE WEST & THE MISERY OF SYRIA

The blood-letting in Syria has been going on for 8 years now. It began with demonstrations in which people died from gunfire. Western media talks of peaceful protestors.

The gun-wielding rioters on Ukraine's Maidan were also described in this way.
THE WEST & THE MISERY OF SYRIA

The way the start of the conflict in Syria began is described simplistically by western media. They claim it was all Assad's fault.

Descriptions vary on this point. Some eye-witnesses (one at least western) say the protestors also used violence.

Like very many people I'm alarmed at the massive threat #ClimateChange directs at the people of this planet, a threat that is already killing large numbers of the poorest. Unlike #XR I don't think this can be tackled in a single issue apolitical manner - that approach will fail
The 1st reason for failure is obvious, the capitalist economic system goes into crisis when growth falls much below 3% a year. That 3% means production will double every 24 yrs so even renewables replace 40% of fossil fuels CC gas production will rise
The second is that for many people a threat in 2050 is impossibly distant in comparison with paying the rent at the end of this week. We need a movement that addresses immediate in your face problems of low rages, high rents, racism & all oppressions

#Thread 1/ Today's a day when I think a lot of people are going to be discussing and critiquing #journalism Since I've been teaching the subject for quite some time now, here's some things I tell my students about their relationships to public officials.
2/ The first rule of #journalism, even in the @spj_tweets code of ethics, is to "seek truth and report it." Sources of truth don't always want it shared. Everyone wants to look good, and when people have chosen to do bad things, they don't want you to expose them.
3/ A side #ProTip for newsmakers: The best way to avoid unfavorable coverage is to not do bad things. It's not 100%, but it works a lot better than other shenanigans you try.

Today Pink Legacy diamond from platinum necklace donated by Maharaja of Mysore to Tirumala Tirupati Temples known as 'Leonardo da Vinci of Diamonds' was auctioned by Christie's at Geneva despite our letter to PMO & temple mahant's warnings. But how did it reach there?
In its 251 years in business, Christie's sold only 4 such diamonds weighing more than 10 carats, this #TTD diamond was almost 20 carats and sold for a record $70 million to Harry Winston. But no one has bothered to ask still how did this diamond get there? abc.net.au/news/2018-11-1…
According to British auction house Christie's this Tirumala Tirupati temples diamond once belonged to the Oppenheimer diamond family. But how did this diamond reach there from #TTD? And what is this Oppenheimer family? We warned about this in detail to our PMO early this year.
