Plenty of blue ticks in #auspol & #nswpol media world who are slamming Jordan Shanks right now, but not one of them can name a journalist or reporter from a major outlet who is extensively covering Barilaro's corruption. Not one. Gaps in a market will always get filled, 1/5
& right now, that's been filled by #FriendlyJordies. Am I a fan of his delivery every time? No, I'm not. But it's the content that's important. Can any blue tick media reflect enough to understand that if THEY WERE COVERING IMPORTANT STORIES, there would be no need for Jordan 2/5
Is there any blue tick media reflecting upon why Barilaro inappropriately used #nswpolice Fixated Persons Unit to try intimidate the Friendly Jordies team into silence? Is it because you already have been intimidated into silence? Because from average punter here on the couch 3/5
that's sure how it looks. Time will certainly tell if the real reason for Barilaro's resignation today was due to #ICAC. But this continual slamming of Shanks because you don't like his delivery is ridiculous. Cover the stories yourselves at your major outlet instead of 4/5
cowering in the shadows, trying to be mates with pollies. Do actual investigative journalism. If your Murdoch/Stokes/Costello/ABC boss says no, that's just confirmation that you're on the right track. Stand up to #corruption, instead of whinging about those who already are. 5/5
