they are still reporting his lies and self-contradictions like each event is an isolated and valid act that requires press gallery journalists of all people to #ScottSplain the most sanitised possible version of his “meta message” and “what he is doing”. My god. Fuck. WE KNOW.
Annabel Crabb is literally stepping us through how media are distributing transphobia for Morrison, as tho she is not media explaining media on the media, neutralising and invisibilising the human agency in newsrooms, the people who make these choices.
they seem to think voters have absorbed their 4 years of careful noise and mopping up for the Liberal Party. No admissions of error, more like conjuring up imaginary ignorance in voters to start walking back a bit of their own bullshit - yet retaining the pro-Morrison frame.
and the ABC leading with what Coalition politicians say about the Labor Party platform - something that is never, by definition, true. Nor is broadcasting what incumbent power says about its political opponents in the public interest. It is always and only propaganda.
