Grace Collier becomes a "right-winger" for criticising Gillard's cleavage Now the ABC is tying itself into knots with this I'm-more-outraged-about-sexism-than-you game which has already taken a Fairfax scalp: Fairfax columnist and industrial relations consultant Grace Collier told a panel discussion on ABC Radio National on Sunday that it was wrong to show so much flesh during parliamentary sittings as it was an issue of workplace conduct... In my opinion as an industrial relations consultant, it is inappropriate to be in Parliament, it is disrespectful to yourself and to the Australian community and to the parliament to present yourself in a manner that is unprofessional... What fun. Love the way Collier, a former union official, is immediately accused of being a right-winger instead, as if no one of the Left has ever criticised the dress sense of the Prime Minister. In this case, however, I think Collier is simply wrong - on the evidence. Meanwhile another astonishing beat-up: ââA lot of people in the Canberra gallery have been saying the same thing ,"" he said. What a joke. The ABC itself raises the issue of what Sattler said - stupid, rude and unforgivably intrusive - and a journalist is meant to pretend this very rumor (or one which gave rise to it) was never discussed before by journalists (and was rightly dropped by them as baseless and intrusive)? Are we also to pretend we don't know where Sattler's line of questioning was going - a fact that explains some of the vehemence of our denunciation of him? Are we to keep quiet that the background is the spreading of a vile viral email which used a maliciously doctored document to falsely smear Gillard as lesbian? "Smear" as in lying about her sexuality. In fact, in 2011 ABC staff themselves referred to the "Tim is gay" rumor that ABC staff now denounce - and without a single ABC presenter being sacked: TWO ABC broadcasters have called Julia Gillard a "whore" and accused boyfriend Tim Mathieson of being gay in blistering Twitter attacks as the Prime Minister prepared to open the ALP national conference today... "Just because you don't want to marry your gay boyfriend doesn't mean I shouldn't be able to marry mine," tweeter Triple J identity and musician Brendan McLean. Another Triple J broadcaster, Paul Verhoeven, .. wrote "boo you whore" about the Prime Minister but later deleted it, claiming it was merely a reference to to a popular movie. The Triple J film commentator said the tweet had been taken down "because the ABC were copping complaints from people who clearly haven't seen Mean Girls," he said in a later tweet. Toughen up, people. Too much panic and hypocrisy. Piers Akerman replies to the Leftists now using this excuse to try to get him banned from the ABC.
