      Incredible journalism from The Australian... I didn’t “back Catherine Deveny”, I had a go at her for her silly tweet. How’d you get that so wrong, @Dana_Adele?pic.twitter.com/nFO2XVwh5H

      I have dozens of relatives who fought in WW2 and my dad’s a Major in the Australian Army. I’d never back a stupid tweet like that. Fair cop if you want to go me for stuff I do actually tweet, but making stuff up is pretty lame.

          TRY REPORTING FACTS FOR A CHANGE AND NOT GOING AFTER PEOPLE FOR A HEADLINE. THE ONLY BROADSHEET IN THE WORLD THAT BEHAVES LIKE TABLOID TRASH.

          ABC fires journalists in order to hire failed, talentless, racist, Muslim, Marxist, junk-media hack. ABC has been utterly captured by anti-Australian interest groups. ABC has given up on pretending non-partisanship. Expect more of this. #Auspol https://dailym.ai/2JMaOwP
