News Fighters

I look back at all the drama and fun from Election Night 2022: the shocks, the tech stuff ups, the confusion, the passive aggressive concession speeches, the blame games, the mind games and the denying of reality. Also what the results mean for Aussie conservativism going forward.

Thanks for listening this election campaign, News Fighters is going on hiatus. Please fill out my anonymous listener survey to help me work out the future of the show: https://forms.gle/W2yWD19cj4qC68H96

Finally - the wait is over and by that I mean the debates are over and election will be soon too. For a third go round on Channel 7, Scott Morrison and Anthony Albanese agree to stop talking over each other but can’t agree on anything else except it’s bed time!

I do a quick recap of the 2nd leaders debate for the Federal Election which was held on Channel 9 where Scott Morrison said “Vote me because you hate me” and Anthony Albanese said “I’m just like him!”. Also Channel 9 praised Scott Morrison when they thought he won the debate but then have to suddenly change their tune!

In week four of the federal election campaign the media’s focus turns to important issues like lettuce, ham sandwiches, chicken curry, potato wedges and other food items. Also there was an interest rate rise.

This week in the Federal Election Campaign: as Labor leader Anthony Albanese heads into iso having caught covid, Prime Minister Scott Morrison shows his autocratic tendencies as he tries to talk tough on China over the botched Solomon Islands security deal.

Also: the coalition’s net zero and economic plans come undone, Howard and Rudd hit the campaign trail and someone tries to hit Barnaby!
