If there’s one thing that grinds the legacy media’s gears, it’s when those ungrateful ‘POC’ march off the plantation and stop doing what they’re told by their Great White Queens. Whether it’s Black and Hispanic Americans not knowing what’s good for them, and voting for Donald Trump in droves, or those uppity Venezuelans thanking Trump for liberating them from a socialist dictator, there’s not a darkie the blindingly white legacy media won’t tell what’s up.
The natives are not just restless: they’ve just about had enough.
Iranian-Australians have accused the ABC of spreading misinformation in its reporting of anti-regime protests that have swept across Tehran and led to 12,000 deaths in recent weeks.
On Wednesday, about 200 Iranian-Australians rallied outside the ABC’s offices in Brisbane to draw attention to the public broadcaster’s “misleading” reporting over the number of Iranians who had been killed in the country’s largest anti-regime demonstrations in years.
They should be grateful the ABC even deigned to report it at all. They’re too busy platforming hijabis and ‘Queers for Palestine’ to bother paying any attention to the dusky hordes arcing up against a fundamentalist Islamic regime that has brutally oppressed women for half a century.
Ayelet Rinon was one of those protesters at Wednesday’s rally. Speaking to the Australian on Thursday, Ms Rinon said the ABC had failed to report “the true voice of Iran”.
Hey, when the ABC want the opinion of a bunch of Persians, they’ll give it to them.
“On Wednesday, the reports from the ABC were very sketchy about the number of deaths in Iran,” she told this masthead. “They were reporting 2000 dead when there are reports coming out of Iran – which the Iranians themselves believe – is more (likely) to be 12,000” […]
“This isn’t palatable but it’s reality, so as ugly and as bad as it might seem, we still have to know the truth,” she said. “This is what’s important and this is what should be reported” […]
At Wednesday’s rally, protesters waved Australian and Iranian flags and held up posters, including one that read: “We will not forget. Selective silence is complicity. Misinformation is not journalism. You reported 2000 when the truth was 12,000. The Iranian people deserve honest reporting.”
Then came the real show-stopper.
Protesters also chanted “Trump, Trump act now”, Ms Rinon said.
Well, that just settles it. Obviously they’re all just far-right extremists.
In response to questions from the Australian, a spokeswoman for the ABC said verifying the death toll in Iran had been difficult amid a sweeping media and telecommunications blackout – effectively cutting the country off from the outside world.
That, oddly, has never stopped the ABC from foghorning whatever bullshit Hamas spokespeople make up.
Funny about that.
It’s almost as if the ABC has an agenda and it’s not fearlessly reporting the facts.
