To all the extremely obvious astro-turfers (thank you for your attention, it's validating 👋) in The Sunday Shot's live chat that want to see more "balance" i.e. right-wing bullshit, just watch.... I dunno, every single other show on TV? We are the balance across a decrepit landscape. You'll cope!

Excellent piece. The #Albo-tross grows more loathsome every day. Dobbing on Kevin, chortling about it - what larks, eh?

Maybe if spineless Albo had held that RC into the media that HALF A MILLION Australians wanted, Murdoch's creepy minion Clennell might not have been there to shaft Rudd.

If anyone writes with more passion or more pain than @davemilbo.bsky.social I'd like to read their stuff. This is brilliant. Heartbreaking, raw, enraging and honest. Read it and weep. Then take action.

I'll remind people again how much blood and carnage it took to stop Zionism's ideological cousin, Nazism.

40 million dead. Generations wiped off the Earth. 6 years of mass destruction. Biplanes and bolt-actions to cruise missiles and atomic bombs.

Well worth a watch and on the money as always. Why don't we get anything of this standard on MSM he asks foolishly?
And the linked full interview with Chris Hedges who was recently de-platformed by the National Press Club.

Many, many times I've wanted to scream in public, full of anger and despair as I am. But I can't, it's the fastest way to be labelled a terrorist or antisemite when you look like me. So what I do instead is read David, and people of conscience like him in the profession, and cling on to my sanity.

"People are starting to understand in Earth-shifting numbers that Palestine is about the fate of all of us."

Another excellent piece from David Milner, including satisfying smack downs of militant ignorance.

This makes @theshot.net.au and @davemilbo.bsky.social even more important than they already are. Real free speech based on facts, not opinions is necessary for a functioning democracy.

None of that, no. He said "that was a good interview" and we had brief chat. He said my Star Wars tattoo is "cool", that his wife is a big fan of Lucas' space opera, and that he only recently heard the Rebels were inspired by the Vietcong. He was real, smart, grounded, classy.
If Chris Hedges didn't tell you you're a piece of shit as he walked out the door, you got the better interview, Mr Milner. In one fell swoop, David Marr obliterated every single piece of respect I had for him. No mean feat really.

I interviewed Pulitzer Prize winning war correspondent Chris Hedges for an hour about the Western media betrayal of Palestinian journalists, the National Press Club of Australia, fascism and a violent empire in decline.
