Fairfax: Global Warming and other Phage Issues.

Fairfax brilliant run and as you can see, an absolute failure for the investures.

Now let me make sure that I have this right -

Neil Mitchell: The circulation of your papers has dropped dramatically. How much does the content of your papers have to do with that drop?

Greg Hywood, Fairfax CEO: Absolutely nothing!

As you can see Hywood is the CEO of Fairfax, he is the number one at the top of the food chain at the left wing epicentre. Now one must wonder a few things about the competence of this leader. Denying that the content of a newspaper has nothing to do with the turnover or it's sales, must be the most ridiculous I have ever heard. Where does this clown come from.

The entire company is heading down the gurgler and yet they refuse to accept the fact that their product stinks to high heaven and no one wants to buy the crap they print. Yet, they deny that there is any issue or problem at all. Denying that the content of a newspaper has no effect on the sales is like a comedian saying that the reason he does not get any work is that it has nothing to do with his jokes not being funny. What a complete cop out and what a mindset. They would rather kill the business than adjust their content which is ofcourse nothing more than leftist/socialist/marxist indoctrination. Total and complete rubbish that is not only offensive but also downright rude and repulsive, yet they persist and claim they are a model for honesty, journalistic integrity.

This is the same company who offered as a promotion at the end of the year, a free trip for their advertisers that consisted of a tour to North Korea for two weeks. Not strange in itself but before that it was Cuba, and China, too bad the Berlin wall was no longer there otherwise East Berlin would have been on the itinerary as well.

Now the majority of thinking human beings have already worked out that Global Warming Hoax is just that, an obvious hoax instigated by a few fanatical scientists for their own selfish reasons. But Fairfax even denies that their is any problem whatsoever with their version of the AGW scheme. They still support it and promote it, yes they do. Those cretins are still pushing the AGW bandwagon when every one else has already jumped off.

As tectonic plates shift beneath the Australian media landscape, The Age has appointed an editor-in chief with a reputation forged, literally, on shifting ground.
Fairfax Media management today announced Andrew ...

 It turns out that this Andrew is straight out of central casting for a paper that’s the global warming Bible of the Left:

Bribe a Fairfax "The Age" Editor Today, while they are hot..

Fairfax and The Age Saga continues..

It is always riveting but not unexpected, to watch those left wing liars conveniently play the games that normally becomes their undoing. Stupid is as stupid does, can also be applied to that AGW hysterical raging site called "Skeptical Science", appropriately "SS" for short. That lunacy Global Warming hysteria site has exposed itself completely as these exposed emails show. Lying about the climate is one thing but manipulating the Fairfax editors is something else but they did not have to do much convincing from the look of it.

In order to spread the misinformation about AGW and the fertilising CO2, they did a deal on the sly and the editors of The AGE newspaper, have been shown to be the main problem rather than just part of it.The argument is supposed to be about ethical standards and freedom of the press. In reality, it's all about the left wing loons demanding they keep their own indoctrinating vehicle in place and bugger the balance and the truth. Since when does any left wing indoctrination rag ever indulge in anything honest or ethical or that has any integrity. When ever you come across one, let me know, It will be the first one..

How To Get Published in The Age

EARLIER THIS YEAR, the energetic warmist John Cook left the rear door ajar at his Skeptical Science, allowing the uninvited to slip through and peruse a wealth of archived and formerly private correspondence between the site’s proprietor and the more ardent and intimate catastropharians who wring their hankies at his select invitation. Links to several now-dead .zip files were posted on the web, and several kind readers passed along all those notes and letters to the Billabong, where they provoked quite a few chuckles but no posts. At the time it seemed other than the act of a gentleman to read another’s mail and talk about it, so the archive’s many illustrative opportunities to cite fevered minds in action went untapped.

That is still the attitude at the Billabong, although this column by Jo Chandler and Ian Munro in today’s Phage has prompted a bit of a re-think. As you might expect, and as we will see repeatedly over the weeks to come, it is all about the hallowed Fairfax manifesto of editorial independence and how vital it is to the quality journalism people like Chandler and Munro produce.  There is one little section, though, that justifies hiking the hem just a bit on Cook’s archive. It is Article Three of the Age and Sunday charter (apparently the Silly and other papers have their own) and re-produced at the foot of the Chandler-Munro article. Here it is:

3. The board of directors acknowledges the responsibility of journalists, artists and photographers to report and comment on the affairs of the city, state, nation and the world fairly and accurately and regardless of any commercial, personal or political interests including those of any shareholder, manager, editor or staff member.

What brings this to mind is Cook’s archived note to a fellow warmist -- a note in which he explains how, when the Phage wandered off the reservation and allowed Bob Carter to decry warmism on the paper’s opinion page, he succeeded in having  a rebuttal published in the same space and on the very next day. There is no link to what follows, but take a Bunyip’s word that everything below is as it is in the original. Cook wrote:

“What I have learned so far is to build relationships. I got the Age piece because I knew Jo Chandler at The Age. She was the one who advocated for me to the opinion editor that I should respond to the Carter article. So schmoozing is something we all have to work at. Try to build the relationships with local journalists and editors. How? Beats me but if you figure it out, let us all know!”

So, just to recap, Article Three of The Phage’s Mingy Carta avows that journalists will eschew influencing editorial content “regardless of any commercial, personal or political interests.” Yet Chandler, who is a warmist to her boot heels and just happened to have a newly released alarmist tome in the shops, used her influence to make sure her mate Cook was given the final word. And just for good measure, Chandler administered a follow-up wallop to Carter a couple of days later. All of that would seem to be at odds with each of Article Three’s stipulations against reporters advancing their personal, political and commercial interests.

But there is more than that, and it behoves Mrs Rinehart’s incoming editors to think about, for example, the apparent ease with which eager reporters can be schmoozed, to use Cook’s term, by activists pushing agendas that those journalists find congenial.  If the Age had a few resident sceptics for balance, people who might also have leaned on the opinion editor, it might not matter so much. But one gathers that they and their potential advocacy have been driven off in much the same way that a favoured propagandist was ushered in.

It also helps to explain why The Age has shed so many readers and so much credibility.  According to Chandler, who chairs the House Independence Committee, the charter is vital – vital, apparently, for suppressing dissent from the views prevailing two floors above the corner of Collins and Spencer streets.

It will be interesting to see how Mrs Rinehart sets about changing all that.

UPDATE: Go a'googling for Carter's Age article and look at the headline that shows up in the search results: "Climate change denialist Bob Carter -- The Age". As this headline is not the one on the story, would it be a fair guess to assume it has been tagged like this score google links?

The World Owes Me a Living..

Hysterics reigns supreme when one has a look at the action of left wing lunacy license holders and their response to the Fairfax Corporation's inevitable decline. Inevitable as they produce that usual left wing dream-time drivel that no one really wants to hear or are even remotely interested in, it just catered to their own delusional minions. One wonders how they have gotten away with it for so long. The other left wing lunatic fringe rag is the Guardian in England where it promotes the same messages and even quote and support the indoctrination spiels from each other.

The matter that they are producing irrelevance, matters nada to left wing infidels, as they have always been convinced that money grows on trees and everyone should be looked after by the state. They forget that there is only so much money to go around and in order to produce more, they would actually have to go out and do something that is totally foreign to them, go to work.

The sane and hard working have no issue with that fact at all and deal with that as they would with everything else, but not the "occupy" crowd. They demonstrated exactly and clearly what the left wing doctrine would eventually lead you and it ain't utopia. Preferring instead to a life of living of some one else's hard work, blood, sweat and tears. The mindset these drones have no standards to follow as probably their own parents have not bothered with their personal education or have just paid for everything they have always owned and thereby have no indication of it's worth. Living at home was their aim and appealed to their comfort level. They however were contaminated by those same miscreants who believe that every single issue and problem has been created by either corporations or banks or some idiot hiding is some dungeon somewhere. That way they never have to learn anything else and they can and do create their own little life bubble where they can dream and demand that the world owes them a living..
