The end of Guardian “journalism” is at hand. In its place, there is now only personal bias and closed-loop ideology:
Guardian Australia editor-in-chief Lenore Taylor has told her journalists that she is concerned the signing of an anti-Israel letter by 24 of the left-wing publication’s staff could raise questions about the impartiality of their reporting.
More than 20 reporters, editors, cartoonists and contributors to the Guardian Australia – who cover a broad range of topics including social media, culture, sports, environment, justice and education – have signalled their support to the MEAA’s campaign that was circulated on Friday.
The journalist union’s letter demands that Australian media treat the information from the democratically elected government of Israel the same as Hamas, an internationally recognised and condemned terror group.
I know more than most about Israel vs Palestine. But I do not comment on it because it is not mine or Australia’s business. Nor is it the business of The Guardian Australia.
The broader point is what this says about the professional standards of the former journalists turned activists at The Guardian.
They have no standards of objectivity, reporting of that facts, not even to relay the straightforward content of press releases if they contravene whatever hobby horse has possessed the propagandists.
Most often, this transpires around issue of immigration, housing and inflation, race, gender and sex in Australia. All of these are systematically censored.
This is why editor-in-chief Lenore Taylor has ZERO credibility when s/he complains about partial reporting in her own paper.
You either have impartiality on everything, or you do not, and the corruption spreads to everything.
Lenore Taylor should be sacked, and the entire GA newsroom cleaned out.
