Loving the new desk. Did they get the cafeteria tables from Bunnings and the shiny drapes from Spotlight?
Deniseâs mic was left on and you hear her drop the f-bomb at 11:00mins
I agree. Iâm trying to avoid getting stuck in the enormous shitstorm that often comes up when discussing his brand of ~content~ but thereâs good reason why he shouldnât be on Australian mainstream media, yet alone this show.
And whatâs that reason?
In October 2017, leaked emails revealed that Yiannopoulos had repeatedly solicited neo-Nazi and white supremacist figures on the alt-right for input in his work for Breitbart.
In February 2017, he resigned from Breitbart after a controversy arising from a video clip in which he said that sexual relationships between 13-year-old boys and adult men and women can be âperfectly consensualâ and positive experiences for the boys.
Two examples from many. Do you support either of his positions, @jens? Do you think he makes a worthwhile contribution to public debate or is just an inflammatory troll?
Studio 10 giving him a platform is very dangerous and irresponsible.
agreed it was dangerous and irresponsible. i found the whole thing cringle worthy and distasteful. at one point i was ready to change channels
you should see what he put on his own page regarding the argument with jess
Whatâs wrong with a show having & presenting different opinions & views on things?
Even when the opinion is that sexual relationships between 13-year-old boys and adult men and women can be âperfectly consensualâ and positive experiences for the boys?
Didnât hear that mentioned on Studio 10.
But what if he had? Is that the risk Studio 10 should take?
Thanks for making the point clear
Iâve lost the motivation as whenever I try it just turns to shit so quickly.
Exactly.
People donât know the full story about him from Studio 10. The reason why heâs appearing on all these Australian shows is because he has been shunned from the American media and is craving attention from somewhere, and Australian shows are sufficiently lazy and careless enough to give it to him.
Iâd be fine with Studio 10 interviewing him, if theyâd preface the interview with an outline of some of the shit heâs said. The guy supports paedophilia and Neo-nazis for fuckâs sake.
Do you honestly think that itâs acceptable to debate whether paedophilia is okay on morning TV? Because thatâs the âdifferent opinions and viewsâ youâre inviting in.
Gosh fucking dammit it makes me mad that people even think twice about this shit.
Georgia Love filling in for Sarah who is unwell this morning.
Georgia was scheduled to be 5th panellist today so Todd McKenney is 5th panellist this morning, his second appearance this week.
It was a bit weird when Joe was pretending he didnât know whether Tim Cahill would turn up for their interview when he had posted this photo of the two of them on social media already.
They must be paying him well. That Dancing with the Dogs segment earlier this week was the stuff of nightmares.
