Even though Mr Williams launched the inflammatory, and highly personal, attack against Rogan, he confusingly stated he never watched the Joe Rogan Experience.

Rogan and Williams can have all the back and forth they like.
But Musk listing the ABC as a propaganda machine on X is hilarious. So that's how freedom of speech works. Any opinions you don't agree with are propaganda. Well done Musk... What a very, very fragile free speech absolutist he turned out to be. Especially given that X is now basically a state-run regime media source. |

Title: Re: ABC Kim Williams attacks Joe Rogan Post by SadKangaroo on Nov 29th, 2024 at 4:30pm
Reading the transcript, Williams was spot on with his criticism of Rogan.
He described Rogan as "deeply repulsive" and accused him of exploiting societal fears and anxieties for malevolent purposes. Check. Williams argued that Rogan’s approach to entertainment perpetuates misinformation, such as conspiracy theories, under the guise of normalised narratives, which he finds deeply concerning given Rogan's vast influence in the US. Check. Williams also contrasted Rogan's platform with the public broadcaster's role in providing trusted news and fostering informed discourse. Check. It's all accurate. I guess the truth hurt. It's especially triggering for the "tell it how it is" crowd which is the funniest part. |

:D :D What is Rogan's malevolent purpose?? Williams didn't 'argue' anything, Sad. You are not in Sociology 101 with Mothra and the rest of the pink haired brigade. He was asked a question and he gave an ill-considered, ill-tempered answer that was just a little off the cuff rant. Nobody of Williams's class much cared about Rogan and his class until they thought his interviewing Trump - and not Kackela - may have contributed to the el election result. There is plenty of misinformation on his ABC, btw. |

Joe Rogan should be understood as solely an entertainer - an amalgam of Archie Bunker and Homer Simpson. Yes, he's an avid conspiracy theory enthusiast in the way male early teenagers are superhero enthusiasts. When he was proved wrong, in real time, about the money Beyonce and others were paid to support Harris, he laughed and quipped, 'but I want it to be true!'. When he interviews genuinely informed people, often not even famous people, (like 83-year-old Merlin Tuttle, who spent decades in the Amazon studying bats!), he proves himself to be a naturally gifted conversationalist. The problem is he's become the world's most famous victim of the Dunning-Kruger effect. He appears to believe he comprehends the subjects in peer terms his real experts explain in layman's terms to him and his audience, but cannot discern an expert from a well-spoken grifter like Graham Hancock or a logic-twisting fraud like Bret Weinstein. Due to his fame, of course, many have copied his format and hailed it as a genuine replacement for the many-faulted mainstream media - now branded the alternative new media - which is descending into a soup of medieval religiosity and primitive mysticism. Of course, politicians were never going to be far behind the grifters in recognising the power of this new kind of entertainment and exploiting it. |

It is trusted as an emergency news source and is valuable in all cultural areas untainted by its political bias to the progressive left. Which is not much. |

Largely true, particularly from a few years back, but recently the rot has set in. He is often duped by frauds, whom he has taken to defending like a tag team, particularly when they are pushing conspiracy themes he enjoys - even to the point of defaming those true experts who challenge the frauds. The Trump interview was Rogan at his worst, revealing that he is most vulnerable to truly professional influencers, like Trump, who has spent a lifetime in the public spotlight and has melded his entrepreneurial experience with political experience. It was pathetic to see that he was putty in Trump's hands. He ranted in lockstep with Trump about the lies of Harris and Walz yet did not challenge Trump on a single contentious issue or many of Trump's lies or exaggerations. In contrast, Theo Von - the dufus in chief - proved less vulnerable than Rogan. It appears Rogan imagines himself as 'up with it' as those he interviews - probably basing this solely on his popularity. He is a gifted conversationalist but, outside his areas of expertise, he ranks very low as an insightful interviewer. |

Actually sometimes the ABC is very good. eg discussing a new book about the nature of money, on RN this morning. Though disappointingly the author of the book didn't mention that money is created out of thin air, he only obliquely referred to money as a "magic technology". Nevertheless, what commercial outfit would even discuss the nature of money, which is at the very heart of our modern technological civilization.....and yet is also "the source of all evil"? As to Rogan, I haven't heard him....but I'm picking up he is the consumate RW shock-jock, another brain dead Conservative. Any evidence showing otherwise will be greatly appreciated... |

Not a conservative, Rogan's a gifted conversationalist and avid conspiracy theorist. His expertise is in martial arts and stand-up comedy. Apart from that, generally, and self-admittedly, he's a dumbcunt. He is a piss-weak journalistic interviewer, so poor he should not be known as such and, to be fair to him, he doesn't market himself as one. He does almost no background research and, apparently, does not hire staff to do it for him. His research is done in real-time by his sidekick, Jamie, who is a 'Google whizz'. He mimics the style of teenagers 'fact-checking' each other using TikTok. |

'aliens are watching us as we get better with technology and will step in if we go too far'
Said by Rogan during a conversation with Eric Weinstein who politely side-stepped agreeing with Rogan, responding instead with his theory on the tyranny of cosmic distance being avoidable such that aliens could, in theory, both be here and not be here at the same 'time'. Rogan was pleased with that. It confirmed for him that aliens could still be watching over us - like a scene out of 'Dumb and Dumber'. It's this kind of humouring of Rogan by many of his guests that has over-inflated Rogan's perception of what he thinks he knows. |

Rogan made reference to 'The View' panel and how they all loved Trump before he ran for office - to which Trump agreed and added more to the story. Rogan said he couldn't play the clip to prove it due to possible copyright issues. Whoopi Goldberg, who'd been named by Rogan as one who'd hugged Trump, however, did release the clip. It was from March 2011 - at the height of Trump's Obama birther bullshit so, hardly a time when a black woman would be embracing a defamer of a black president. Watch for yourself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dZqb7WXoY8 Rogan made a Trump arselicker out of himself. Why would Harris have received a warm welcome from Rogan? |

The difference between Rogan ( and podcasters, Twitter etc) and Wiliams's ABC is the variety of political and cultural views and perspectives on the former and the homogeneity on the latter. You will never hear an interesting debate or discussion on politics or culture on the ABC. You already know what line the ABC will take on any political issue.
You will never hear a non-lefty nor will you ever hear a lefty challenged on the ABC. Lotsa interruptions and gotchas when a non lefty is interviewed. That is why, for example, Lib Nats and other ever-so-sliggtly-right-of-left-of-centre stopped going on QandA. And that's why ABC audiences continue to shrink. It is boring and predictable. The agit-prop is smuggled into even such programs that have no obvious political aspects. The number of listeners of the Radio National breakfast program - the ABC's premier agenda setting flagship radio program - more than halved in 3 years in Sydney and Melbourne , from 300,000 to 132,000. |

Not a fair summation of the ABC. Actually Tom Switzer, director of the freemarket think tank the IPA, had a RN program 'Between the Lines' which featured good poltical analysis from a Conservative view point, and he often interviewed well known Conservative figures. Ditto for Amanda Vanstone (former coalition MP) with 'Counterpoint'. And the Drum also featured 'individual rights' ideologues with whom I often disagreed. And I remember Barnaby Joyce on Q&A rubbishing Luke McGregor's explanation of MMT.. "of course govt. debt has to be paid back by taxpayers, you halfwit..." (my paraphrase). In fact, the ABC is largely a neoliberal freemarket cheerleader: Philip Adams called in a mainstream economist (on LNL) to explain MMT, when he should have interviewed an MMT economist. But much serious analysis has been lost to budget cuts, I think many of those programs are gone or will soon go. Quote:
See above. Quote:
The ABC sacked Fatima Payman for offering a personal view critical of Israel. Hardly the actions of a blind Lefty broadcaster. ....... So I watched Rogan intervewing Bernie Sanders, an excellent interview. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2O-iLk1G_ng Sanders explained why US healthcare is twice as expensive as other first world countries (like Canada); and yet thousands of Amercians go bankrupt every year because they cannot pay medical costs. The problem is greedy pharmaceutical companies making massive profts from overpriced drugs. Sanders wanted to pay for publicly funded health care, and elimate student debt, by levying taxes on billionaires and multi national companies who often pay near zero tax. And a 0.5% tax on Wall Street speculators, ie day traders who don't create wealth for the country (like Warren Buffett) but merely bet on rising and falling stock prices; apparently that alone would raise $2.4 trillion (because the US stock exchange is so huge). At one point Joe asked Bernie if he had used cannabis, :"Yes, a couple of times, but it didn't do anythign for me". Whereupon Joe reveled this interesting snippet: "Yes, I used it many times, and - oh, man!...." (Why do some people have great trips, and others are unaffected?) From previous comments here, it seems Rogan's main fault is a (two-faced) tendency to agree with his interviewees to their face; and to accept daft ideas like aliens interacting with planet earth. So yes, I would urge Williams to at least watch the Sanders interview, to get a more accurate impression of Rogan's qualities as an interviewer. Rogan is certainly not a brain-dead RW shock jock who wouldn't dream of interviewing a 'democratic socialist' in an in depth conversation. Quote:

Soon after Trump’s triumph, Jon Caramanica in The New York Times explored how the manosphere upturned the left-liberal assumption that a “coherent cultural tent” would lead to a Harris victory.
[url]Williams appears to have completely missed this cultural shif[/url]t. His default denunciation of Rogan was one heck of an own goal for him and the ABC. À la the Queen of Disco in 1975, why didn’t he try to at least fake some interest? Instead, many saw an uninquisitive new chairman reinforcing a lack of curiosity downstream at the public broadcaster. Perhaps pompous old Aunty has become a victim of her own early success. Radio National once distinguished itself as a podcasting trailblazer. As the edgy innovator, the ABC served up popular and polarising podcasts that swerved left. One of the early starters was shrinking violet Phillip Adams, whose online CV describes his former show Late Night Live as “Australia’s most successful ‘podcast’ program, both in Australia and around the world” – with 13 million downloads in 2008. Matt Bevin’s Russia, If You’re Listening was another popular and polarising podcast. Its early success involved a whole series devoted to peddling what turned out to be a hoax – that Trump was in cahoots with the Kremlin – later disproven by the Mueller report. (The public broadcaster didn’t follow up with a similarly in-depth follow-up accounting for its airing of this misinformation.) ABC chair Kim Williams’ ‘arrogance’ called out after ‘patronising’ rant on Joe Rogan Sky News host Sharri Markson has called out ABC Chair Kim Williams after he launched a “patronising” attack on popular podcaster Joe Rogan. When Williams accused Rogan of peddling “fantasy outcomes and conspiracy theories”, the ABC chairman may have overlooked the ABC’s own misinformation shenanigans. Today most ABC podcasts are boring. The most popular, edgiest podcasts – such as Rogan’s – make fun and make money from left-liberal sensitivities. And a clueless Williams fell right into Rogan’s trap by demonstrating how reactionary the ABC has become. As one ABC insider told The Australian, despite the early popularity of some of the ABC’s podcasts, “now everyone else is catching up – and the ABC can’t keep up. Some of their podcasts barely attract 100 listeners.” There’s little to crow about at the ABC any more. Its influence is a thing of the past. Sure, some ABC journalists might get a laugh out of doubling down on airing their progressive inner-city fetishes. But for listeners the ABC’s hectoring programming is up there with death and taxes https://www.theaustralian.com.au/commentary/note-to-kim-aunty-could-learn-a-lot-from-joe-rogan/news-story/2297e39eb41c877b6dbd26deebb369ac |
