    German govt bails out Lufthansa, takes 20% stake, freezes exec bonuses, divs and takeovers till loan repaid. Australian govt bails out Qantas for $2bn, takes no stake. No obligations. Qantas resumes bonuses and takeovers.

    The ABC had a choice this week: amplify Murdoch’s toxic “Mean Girls” coverage, or expose News Corp for exploiting the death of Kimberley Kitching. It made the wrong choice. #auspol #insiders
    ABC should expose News Corp's agendas, not Labor's "Mean Girls" - Michael West

    Serious misinformation which affects us all. Just watched #nine news which claimed (gas lobby pr) that bans on onshore gas exploration (fracking) was reason for rampant energy prices #auspol Aust is the biggest gas exporter world. There is *no* supply problem

    Will be supporting @friendlyjordies defence against the Barilaro threat. We need media which holds politicians to account, predatory defamation lawyers too

    Wow, 12 people dead in NSW, 1,431 infected #GladysOutbreak and half the media, the usual suspects, carping on about "PM's game changer" deal, Palaszczuk (zero cases again), McGowan, Andrews. Corporate media in this country is not merely broken. It is a political machine

    Highlight of debate: Crowe: "PM have you seen any corruption during your time ...? Morrison: pregnant pause ... "No". Man who presides over the most corrupt government of the past century: "I haven't seen any corruption"
