1/13 Doubt anyone who should read this will, but here goes-We had @FOXnews on 24/7 every day for years.
Recorded so many great shows to watch when we had time at night.
Then BOOM
-They fired Glenn Beck
-Then the Meghan Kelly fiasco
-Then Brett Baier's show died
-Then they fired

Terry Yumbulul didn’t write the letter and didn’t agree with its content. He said so himself in a video published the next day https://t.co/IJ6ricZeRi and in a written statement published later the same day
The weird thing was, it soon emerged that large sections of the letter had been cribbed from other sources. Weird because as a Yolngu lawman, Terry didn’t need to borrow his knowledge from unrelated, alternate sources ... pretty much verbatim
The fallout was swift. Bolt was compelled to do a correction on his column and Cashman was just as swiftly dumped from her position of the Morrison government’s Senior Advisory Group for an Indigenous Voice to Government
There was no apology from either of them or from NewsCorp tho, and with the assistance of Sky News After Dark they desperately attempted to obfuscate the reality that everybody involved had been caught out and left red faced

The press are now also covering Durham's decision to hold the hearing into the complaint against Cllr Boyes behind closed doors. See this item by @JHarrisonLDR, which includes reference to representations by @GypsyTravellers for a public hearing.https://t.co/C6M4KR65cW https://t.co/LuS8jQ2moi

The grounds for the complaint are already set out by me: https://t.co/0MDqO6dyja. In summary: on 7 May 2020, Cllr Boyes posted on a Facebook site he shared with another councillor a video of scorch damage from barbeque trays and littering on and around a picnic table.

For those unfamiliar with the details of this complaint, I set out the basis of the complaint in the following 7 images:

The table was in a picnic area in a nature reserve in the Easington constituency which Cllr Boyes represents. The video was accompanied by a comment from Cllr Boyes linking the ‘state’ of the tables with Travellers. That post attracted a number of comments which he liked.
[3/16]
Those liked comments included:
▪️ ‘scum should be f**k*ng shot oxygen thieves’ [edited]
▪️ ‘And they wonder why many people do not welcome them’.
[4/16]
Cllr Boyes accepted at the hearing that he did not have proof that Travellers caused the damage and that it was wrong for him to so implicate Travellers.
