President Elect's 'top team'

[Croolis]

Well look, whoever owns it and whatever country it's in, it's clearly the kind of channel that isn't interested in simple factual non-partisan reporting.

This isn't a new thing but I've always loathed Daily Fail, all tabloids, these days the Evening Standard is a joke, a rag like the Metro is a joke, Telegraph is just shocking, virtually a tabloid masquerading as a broadsheet. I've never been a great fan of the Guardian but for actual facts, if you can get through the editorial, it's that and the Financial Times (I guess, when I can get around the paywall) <shrug> . I typically look at Reuters but they have a paywall these days as well.

On TV, obviously if you like GB News you also need your head examining (yes you do, it's obvious), BBC has not been good I think for a long time. Sky is sensationalist and abysmal. In its own way, Channel 4 News is sensationalist and abysmal, never really liked it. Are ITN and Channel 5 still a thing? TV journalism always sucked I think. These days I dunno, I don't have a TV licence, I only stream and surf, so out of touch.

Getting back on topic, Trump names his secretary of Energy.
Of course it's a Fossil Fuel executive that has no experience in government, that didn't surprise anyone did it?

I have every confidence he will not act in the interests of the fossil fuel industry over ordinary citizens…….

Well it looks like it is not all rosy between biden and trump after all, looks like Biden wants to ensure Trump has a real mess to sort out as he has now said Ukraine can use American long range missiles against Russia, the Russian argument has been that these missiles only function with NATO based data from NATO military systems and therefore it means NATO is directly involved. Biden might be trying to cause massive instability and he knows he has nothing to loose.

Get a spine.

Reagan and Thatcher would have been ashamed of that sort of supine attitude (already too much of it in the State Department for the last 4 years).

Got to stand up to fascists, even if only from narrow self interest as we'll be on the target list.

Tony - it’s Sky News Australia which is owned (as is Fox News) by Rupert Murdoch. Try to keep up!

Of course it's SKY News Australia. Did I say it wasn't?
I think the clue is in the accents.
I find the Aussie Sky News very entertaining as they're not the least bit woke and give a different perspective on items of news to what you'd normally hear from other mainstream media outlets.

Biden is a weasel, I wouldn't put anything past that man.
Clearly it's all designed to destabilise Trump when he takes office but that is typical of the Democrats. They lost the election so they will sabotage the next government when it takes office, just they did the last time.
These are dangerous slimy people intent on bringing down Trump even if it brings the USA & NATO into direct conflict with Russia. They're certainly not patriots that's for sure and it's no wonder Trump won with a landslide margin.

Thats because they literally were banned from broadcasting on FTA TV here in Australia for DECADES (and after a considerable donation to the Libs party fund, were suddenly allowed (a very limited) FTA licence- however their ratings have never gotten into the double digit level and they are constantly under threat of losing that limited FTA licence...

That's why they use the sats- because they literally can't get a proper broadcast licence here (well couldn't)

****, they are the last place to allow Alan bloody Jones to spread his racist, sexist filth on air...
(he makes trump look positively left leaning and sane in comparison...)

Not woke???- they are literally so far to the right, they can't be seen with the Hubble telescope!!!
