It's been a big week for Peter van Onselen - the man they know as PVO. He wrote a blistering attack (justified IMO) on Grace Tame, and then courageously retreated like a French general when the cool kids yelled at him. Then, yesterday at the National Press Club, he took some serious skin off the PM. And that will be a problem for Morrison because it reinforces a narrative ScoMo would rather we forgot. Both instances raise some interesting questions about the ethics of our media (stop laughing - they think they have some left).
