peer reviewed research confirms that the targeted, misogynist bullying surrounding Morrison’s ascension was minimised and trivialised by Liberal Party males, as loyally legitimised and laundered in corporate media outlets by press gallery journalists.

obviously there is no way that peer reviewed research will prompt press gallery journalists to reflect on their role in misogynist bullying by Liberal Party politicians that waved Morrison into the PMO. Why would they. It is only facts, evidence, and analysis.
corporate media do not value facts and evidence, any more than Morrison does. They do not need that shit mate. Abuse of power is much more rewarding. Not for merit, obviously, they are all terrible at their jobs, per the actual job description. But more rewarding nonetheless.
regular reminder that meritocracy mythology was dreamt up by Mills and the crew to rationalise - lie about - how grotesque inequalities are aggressively enforced in “liberal democracies” and capitalism is pretty much post-feudalism with automation and an extra robber baron class.
still the real king of misogynist bullying is Abbott. Media outlets amplified his relentlessly sleazy and nasty and aggressive and creepily sexist attacks for three whole years.
the first rule of national press club is to never concede error.
