This latest episode of Media Watch is worth a look.
I've always trusted the ABC to deliver a better quality of truth. 🙂

At his trial Justice James Wood allowed the entrapment into evidence
Mallah then purchased a rifle and ammunition, prepared his will and made a video to be played after he died.
what did he say in that video?

Which "sisterhood" are you referring to, Icy?
The sisterhood that screams "misogynist" over something like a wink from the PM when a senior sex worker calls in on a listener's line. Or when the the PM refers to "houswives doing their ironing".
Yet think it's quite OK for someone like Mallah to get TV time after his foul tweets earlier this year calling 2 senior female journos "whores" and that they should be gang-raped
Is it a "sisterhood" to which you belong?
I don't belong to any sisterhood thank you. I'm a free agent
Mallah fitted in quite well with the one who said Gillard should have her throat slit and the one who said she should be kicked to death and you're right, none of them should have been on QandA after their comments encouraging violence against women.
unbelievable ![]()
fitted in quite well?
i didnt think there would be anyone trying
to justify his right to be heard ![]()
especially a woman ![]()

You obviously missd this bit: none of them should have been on QandA after their comments encouraging violence against women
That doesn't sound to me like justifying any of them.

Who is justifying his right to be heard? All I said is he fitted in well with a couple of panel members, as they each have been known to speak of violence towards women. In case you missed it, I highlighted the bit you seem to have missed.

why bring other examples into this?
the question which you highlighted was:
Why is the sisterhood not baying for his blood over his gang-banging comments?
you answered with:
Mallah fitted in quite well with the one who said Gillard should have her throat slit and the one who said she should be kicked to death and you're right, none of them should have been on QandA after their comments encouraging violence against women.
attempting to detract attention from mallah/
justifying him being on the show -
it is how i see it.

That's not detracting attention at all it's just pointing out the obvious. You can't lambast one person for their comments and demand they be answerable to them while letting off 2 other people who made remarks that were just as offensive. Common sense should prevail. All three of them made disgusting comments against women and therefore all three of them should be answerable for them.

They were all on the same episode of the same show. Why should we focus on the one questioner and not on the guests?
Ciobo's response to the question was no better than the question, imo. It seemed as if he was exercising his right to see how far he could push Mallah, hoping for a violent reaction.

No. Mallah asked the question and he got a honest answer to which he responded with insolence, and the ABC got exactly what they set the show up for, namely, controversy.
