Because a Nazi booed a Welcome to Country on Anzac Day, Channel 7 decided debating Welcomes to Country was a valid question. Once again the racist Australian media shows where it stands.

Is the media racist, or do advertisers seek racist eyeballs?
Both?🤔
People don't become racist by magic. Public Opinion is *formed*.
Channel 7 asking who created the environment where people could be that openly racist on AMZAC Day
Australians are dumb. New migrants (often victims from a colonialist past) are ignorant. We need to educate all Australians about truth.
Weird that the "Uluru statement from the heart" is synonymous with the "Voice" referendum (response to one of the requests) and WTC (completely separate even though an acknowledgement). ulurustatement.org/wp-content/u...
Weren't they the same "journalists"(I use that word advisedly) whose very 1st question the last elections was "What is a woman"? They're unserious propagandists thinly disguised as a "News" outlet.
Channel 7 has been a racist organisation for a long time. It has an agenda that criticises everything about social justice and equality.
Channel 9 isn't much different... look at the radio stations they own, as an example. This is the problem, when the two TV stations that gain more than half the population's eyeballs are so right-leaning.
There is no doubt that Dutton is trying to exploit identity politics.....BUT hoisting ceremonial activities on people should be open to debate in a free and civil society.
Why did the Last Post need to be played before every footy game on the weekend when ANZAC day was Friday. Why have Welcome to Country to start meetings? We should be wary of forcing cultural practices on others - admittedly it happens all the time e.g. Easter but questioning isn't wrong or racist.
No one is forcing you to do shit you don't have to go to ANZAC ceremonies, and no one is making you watch the proceedings before the footy. It's a non-issue and completely manufactured.
I reckon that "BUT" would fit well in the commonly used phrase "I'm not racist BUT...." Why do we have to have the national anthem before *every* footy final? And why do we all have to stand? That's also forcing ceremonial activities on people.
I agree. Why? And by the way, I supported the Voice. And think Australia day should be moved. I think Welcome to country is quite acceptable at large events. But I'm wary of things being 'forced' on others - at meetings for example. That is all.
ABC radio too.
Some. Yes. Thankfully they're in the wee hours usually.
Channel 7’s Summer of Racism has spilt into the Autumn.
"I'm not a racist but I don't need to be welcomed to my country" I don't need to be 'saved' by some sky fairy but I listen in silence It's called respect
I haven’t watched rac7sm since their breakfast show punched down on the Aboriginal child. Disgusting pigs.
It was a,deliberate attempt to wedge albo knowing full well a large proportion of the viewers are like duddon .....acists
Yes the polling gave Spud's take a very high advantage. We are a racist shithole.
Good to see Channel 7 wheel out their resident racist Prune McSweeny.
was she sober ?
If it was the first hour of the show it’s remotely possible after that, no chance.
Acknowledgement of Country And Welcome to Country To be clear
This link below provides a deeper understanding a WTC. I’m on Noongar Boodja in WA. www.facebook.com/share/p/164v...
Pretty sure the folks that happily sang God Save the Queen for years are the same folks losing their shit over Welcome to Country and don't see the irony!
I don’t think making political leaders declare where they stand on it makes the media racist.
We’re all pretty clear on the respective political leaders’ positions though. You’d need a short memory to forget the ugliness of the Voice referendum debate.
😡
Channel 7 interviewed him
ABC’s RN did its bit today to mainstream the nazi’s talking points…showing: a) it’s complete disdain for the feelings of 1st nations people, & b) how the media operating model helps the neofascists socialise their abhorrent ideas
Australia’s racism is always at a simmer and it takes nothing to bring it to boiling point
This is channel 7 (and hosted by Nat Barr from Scumrise) who have repeatedly shown their racism
I mean, who could forget them showing the photo of an Aboriginal man, accusing him of kidnapping a child - but it wasn't the right Aboriginal man.... because they all look the same apparently
I am not sure it is the issue that the LNP and media think it is. I think a bigger issue is a lack of education around our countries heritage and indigenous people, the harm done during the White Australia Policy years, and how we can move on.
The notorious White Australia Policy wasn't about indigenous people.
Some used that to policy to hide their bigotry and allow persecution of indigenous peoples.
The White Australia Policy was about limiting immigration to Australia and reducing the number of non-"white" people in Australia seeking citizenship. It has NOTHING to do in any way, shape or form with indigenous issues. Stop lying, it's not a good look.
Some used that to policy to hide their bigotry and allow persecution of indigenous peoples.
Of course you can prove that.
Lived it.
So no then.
Hang on - isn’t it just possible that a “White Australia Policy” would have an impact socially on any POC living in Australia? Despite its stated intention? Probably important to understand that from someone who experienced it? Just saying. 🕊️
The First People were subjected to an enormous range of genocidal policies (Still are). W policy focused more on People trying to enter the country.
There should be a law against media rage baiting.
And although drowned out by cheers...
C7....is the typical MSM pathetic organisation....they are fuelling division and scaremongering in Australia 👎😡😠🤡🤮
If it grates, it rates.
Yep...like, 'If it bleeds, it leads.' Murdoch gutter press slogan.
And ABC Brisbane's Steve Austin doubled down with a guest who is making the argument that Welcome to Country is "modern" and shouldn't be included in "traditional" Anzac Day services. FFS.
The modern version was created by Ernie Dingo in the 70s. I wonder what may have happened, in say the late 60s, that may have enabled Indigenous culture to gain broader acceptance?
Exactly. And I mean, "modern" being 50 years old. ANZAC Services 110. Modern human history, what, about 60,000 years? It was an embarrassingly white and racist argument being made on ABC Brisbane.
That’s a ‘bold’ argument…
It is SWM, the most deplorable of the MSM. It even beats out Murdoch yellow press.
Every moment Dutton has a chance to lower the temperature of hate in this country he turns the thermostat up.
The same company that has supported other notorious racists and war criminals, so not surprising…
Stokes Spotlight Lehman Credibility =zilch none nah all day every day
Absolutely exhausted by this “it’s everyone else’s job to appease the lowest-common-denominator” mindset. See also: “the left must appease the right when in power”.
Our MSM punching down is easier than journalism and that includes abc
& that’s taken over the discussions, not the lack of details from the LNP of funding cuts . A caller to Raf Epstein actually said it’s the first thing Dutton has said that would make him vote for him 😔
The organisation that platformed a war criminal? No wayyyyyy
7 has a history of supporting fascism ideals....and rapists and war criminals
The power of one booing Nazi 🙄
Almost all reports of the Welcome to Country 'debate' begin with "Peter Dutton says...". Rather than the more accurate: "In the absence of credible policies, a desperate Peter Dutton attempts to dog-whistle up another culture war...".
This is rat crazy! The LNP rusted on's would rather a Hitler style leader than allow for the common good of all Australian's. Many are deeply religious also! Bat shit crazy imbeciles.
That's not actually true.
👏👏👏👍👍🤣🤣
It's a voluntary part of public ceremonies over which the federal government has no actual say, outside it's own events. A racist dog-whistling diversion pure and simple.
Correct. I cannot imagine how Spud thinks this can be legislated to the wider community who choose how they conduct their business.
Thinking Australians will be cowed into conforming like their American cousins also seems unwise.
Now that’s stretching it by saying “Spud thinks…” not a lot of thought goes on in that noggin 😉
And racism won by giving Dutton a rare victory in the debate
only on that one question. racists on 7. mark riley is a senior scribe . it was his question
Disgusting, again.
So Channel 7 deciding to enable racism. There is no "debate". Only recycling racist tropes. There are reasons why i no longer watch free to air commercial TV.
Right. Instead of attacking the neo Nazis.
Dumbrise 🤮
