Andrew Bolt - is he a credible journalist?

Some of you seem to spend a lot of time reading and posting about a bloke you despise.

Yep the people who hate him are making him a rich man....oh the irony

How so? I don't buy The Advertiser or read his column, I don't read any of his blog posts or visit the site, I've never seen one second of his TV show and I've never listened to his radio show.

Albeit Gozu in a negative slant, you have to admit that you do give him plenty of publicity though? How many people were aware of him before the court case and how many after? I would wonder how sorry over the whole affair he is?

I doubt I personally would've introduced him to too many people on here. He wouldn't be sorry or ashamed it's just all glorious publicity to him in true Fox News tradition. He's actually trying to play the victim in all this and like a guy on Q&A said tonight when you look at Earth from space there are only two things you can see, the great wall of China and Andrew Bolt's self-pity.

Andrew bolt tells it like it is. who cares if he's not credible in the eyes of some, he helps the layman, people like me understand whats going on in the world. good on him for speaking up.

[Sky Pilot]

anyone who can disturb Green/Labor supporters in any way shape or form gets my approval. He/she doesn't have to be credible - just effective and the Boltmeister does it perfectly

So true R&B, some people will believe anything.

Controversial News Ltd columnist Andrew Bolt has been awarded the 2011 Ernie award for sexist comments.

Bolt was given the gold award for a newspaper opinion piece he wrote in April suggesting male soldiers would be turned from warriors into escorts if women were allowed to serve on the frontline.

Meredith Burgmann, a founder of the annual Ernie awards, said Bolt scored the loudest jeers for the 19th Annual Ernie Awards for Sexist Behaviour held at NSW Parliament House on Monday night.

"The judges were the 300 women who booed louder for him than anyone else - it really got up their noses," Ms Burgmann told AAP.

"It's equality in an occupation ... if you're not allowed to apply for a certain job, that's discrimination."

Robert Manne skewers Bolt over his "the Stolen Generations are a myth" lie:

Looks like my post has been deleted by the Mods, mate

Nobody has told me why, it was pretty innocuous compared to plenty on here.

Oh well, the right-wingers can be happy

Can't link to pages with swear words I suppose

[redandblack]

Ah, that could be right.

I'll look forward to all posts with the 'F' word being deleted

You know that the swear filter takes care of that

[redandblack]

I thought there was a rule about avoiding the swear filter, which I scrupulously made sure I obeyed.
