Hot microphone reveals what Victorian journalists really think

[@0...___...]

This is of public importance and interest to the Australian Public. Hopefully it won't be removed. It's important it stays up for people to listen to. Thanks for posting it. Please keep a copy of it. I've not been able to download it.

[@onceonly1111]

There are programs like 'Free KZbin Downloader' from dvdvideosoft which let you download youtube videos by copy pasting the URL into the program (some limitations on size and format unless you pay for full version). I've used it for a while with a lot of success, just keep your product key handy if you decide to buy it because I've had it 'de-register' me for no reason, but putting the product key I purchased back in has worked.

"I've been asked to ask this" "We're great at our jobs" Still oblivious.

[@atveria]

lmao pick one

[@bernie1499]

These entitled journos are such a cheer squad for themselves, they have no respect for the public and fail badly as a professional, independent fourth estate!

[@maesingsmaeplays3407]

Bought and sold propagandists.

[@CogDiss]

At 03:27, did one of them just say "did you guys realise that we're banned?" when talking about asking questions to Scott Morrison on aged care? Did I hear that right?

[@leetennant9071]

Yep

[@alfonsolizarazo9806]

It is great to hear you all, thank you

[@christinekarafillis3938]

They are dumb. Dan Andrews has nothing to be concerned about.

[@fappple]

Unfortunately stupidity is very dangerous these days.

[@jacquelinewalker5523]

Captions would be good if that is possible.. I can't make out everything they are saying

[@drazic2853]

Overall Premier Andrews has replied respectably to the questions asked from journalists, even when those questions are completely ridiculous and try to draw some sort of, gotcha moment. Asked dumb questions, get a frustrated reply. The right wing media are not a reflection of public opinion, they never have been, and never will be.

[@PattoDan]

Premier Andrews is constantly being stalked by these journos. They are not clever enough to hit Dan Andrews who is a moving target. Despite the entire media subjecting him to an ongoing onslaught the Premier keeps emerging unscathed. Meanwhile, the same media show no interest in the corruption of water management or Ruby Princess. Curious

[@forthcoming1000]

Are you for real, the moron locked down a state because he failed to do his job and is now desperate to cover it up. He fails to listen to experts and address any serious questions such as how is it you thought security guards hired from gum tree to happen. Hell they have 1 new case today (As if that matters) and they don't know where it comes from. Journalists across the state are failing to ask serious questions and Dan continues to exploit this by saying just what he needs to avoid any responsibility for his failed government.

[@drazic2853]

@@forthcoming1000 Sure, mistakes have been made, in hindsight it could have been handled better. Could've the opposition Michael O'Brian done any better? Doubtful, they're not much better than their federal buddies. And as for journalists, does it really matter what journalists think, especially those from Sky News Australia. If people in Victoria do the right thing as most are doing the sooner we get out of lockdown mode.

[@eldertaco]

Haha, journo's so good at their jobs they forgot they're in a room that's crawling with mics and cameras any of which could easily be on. Then again they obviously think they're perfect so probably don't even realise how bad they look.

[@KC-YouNeverStopLearning]

Thanks for that I was beginning to feel that I was the only one out there that thought these journo's were not interested in asking nor reporting for the truth and safety of the Victorian public.

Commenting for the algorithm

[@gordonfarkas4064]

Like a bunch of giggling school kids. Journalism is dead in this country!

[@PattoDan]

@Nathan Pearson Sky News is mere politically motivated propaganda delivered by former Lib staffers (eg Kenny, Credlin) for Liberal party supporters. Not journalism. They do a fair job of holding only one side of politics to account. There is plenty of corruption within the Liberal and National parties they will not touch like the water management scandal. This is the limit of journalism you see here today.

[@PattoDan]

@Nathan Pearson Credlin is not a journalist. Never will be. Her show is merely a commentary piece. Fairly decent investigative journalism, not without problems, has been done by ABC four corners for anyone who can recognise it. The ABC that triggered the banking royal commission is the only organisation required by law to be fair and balanced. You cannot trust the political motivations of Credlin. She defends her Abbott government’s energy policies that were drafted at the behest of the minerals and resources council even though they increased wholesale energy prices and pollution. Andrews is in this mess due to a big mistake made by his government rather than corruption. These mistake not limited to Victorian Labor are shared by the public service officials who ran the department responsible for hotel quarantine. The worst scandal within Labor is industrial scale branch stacking that Andrews appeared to address before it was exposed by the media, but that isn’t necessary criminal conduct and AFP would not investigate. The whole ALP will be put in administration for years while they fix this because of the scale taken by branch stacking in Labor. This may never be fixed without factions being abolished in all parties. Corruption exists within all political parties. Recently Gladys Berejiklian has been found guilty of extreme corrupt dealings in NSW. This has resulted in a ICAC inquiry into the Berejiklian government. It exists everywhere. Would Credlin cover any corruption in the LNP? No. You want good independent journalism? Head on over to Michael West. I recall journalism 30 years ago took more that form. Your distrust of genuine journalism has led you to political commentary shows. These shows are the worst Sky has to offer.

The best bit is where they admit that the aged care deaths in Victoria are a scandal for the FEDERAL government but they've been banned from talking about that.

Those journalists have to say Andrews & Sutton deserve to be jailed.

[@danielgentile7522]

They just left UTS school of left wing journalism

What we thought our journos where honest after how many weeks of constantly asking low ball questions that anyone could think of and answer nothing and constantly fail to follow up with obvious questions to dictator Dans idiotic answers
