Also I'm cracking up at Andrew Bolt blaming the voters for the loss:
“No, the voters aren’t always right. This time they were wrong,” Bolt wrote. The reason for the loss? It was because the Liberal party “refused to fight the ‘culture wars’”.

I used to think that a majority labor govt should have fixing media concentration as a top priority.
I think they should still do it, but it's becoming less of an top priority issue these days.
Murdoch and Packer/Gina propaganda failed this time and last.
I think that the billionaires have learnt it's easy to negotiate in the background with labor to get their reforms through as far as cutting red and green tape goes.
Bolt is just salty because he built his whole fake media persona on culture war outrage. The worst thing that could happen to him is happening, that is him and the rest of the sky talking heads are losing audience share and fading in to irrelevance.

The focus should also be on “New Media”.
I’m a bit extremist that I would love to see Australia follow Papua-New Guinea and ban Facebook, but the legislators need to be a helluva lot more intelligent and dynamic than their predecessors. They had Zuck hand their arse to them with their last attempt. It isn’t surprising that Rupe and Kerry lost out in that altercation.

It will be interesting to what sort of party emerges from the rubble. On surface it looks like an out and out rejection of culture war politics. They have no path to victory without winning the cities and they no longer have any representation within those cities. Puts them in a bad place.

I just got my erection to come down after a good night's sleep. Now look at what you've done.
