Who said it was? They are both the same. However the liberals have the media on thier "side".

No. I am "debating" on the OP post. He gave the definition of dog whistling and what you are saying is the "left" doing it doesnt fit the description. I have no party affiliation. What party are you accusing me of affiliating with?

It may have been "explained" but it wasnt right. The media is doing it on behalf of the liberal party.

SOB


I thought we had it all wrapped up in a neat little package when you agreed that the subject might not even notice the "whistle".  Surely that was an acceptance that your "team" does it but you just don't recognise it?

No i didnt. I didnt say they were interchangeable. I said that murdoch backs the liberal party. I didnt say whether that was left or right. Apparently its right but both parties are the same so that would mean labour is also right.

My "team"? I dont have a "team". I asked you earlier and you didnt reply. How are those so-called "leftist" dog whistles dog whistles? If you understand what a dog whistle is then you should be able to give me the alternate words that they should use.

Corrct me if I'm wrong, but from what I can see,your argument is that other people don't recognise the "dog whistle" that sets them off, but whoever represents your point of view doesn't even use the tactic?

Hahahahha. Thats completely silly. What is my point of view? Im saying that the media uses dog whistles in support of the liberal party.

You can completely debunk this by providing me with the alternate words the supposed other media should use in place of those words that are supposed to be dog whistles.

yes, we've established that.  And do you also accept other media outlets use dog whistles in support of labor and other parties?

No. I do not. I havent seen any evidence of that. In fact I have seen them use the same ones as murdoch media. If I am wrong provide the alternate words they should have used for those supposed ones in post 12.

What is more likely - that 1 segment of the media exists outside all known laws of journalism and literature, or that your own statement:

You refuse to answer my question. Because you cant. Because its crap. It doesnt include me because I do not have a "party" or a preference except that i like abbott slightly less than gillard. Stop trying to push this off onto me. You are wrong unless you provide the words. Or do you still not understand the concept of dog whistles?

You may not know you are being whistled when it happens but if you understand the concept then you should realise after the fact.

Do you think your opinions were just formed without any outside influence?  Just claiming that you're immune because you claim not to support any party doesn't change the fact that you have opinions on issues, which are then linked in various ways to these parties, thus influencing your opinion of them.   Rule number 1 - there is NO such thing as a neutral text.  EVERYTHING you see/hear/read has been imparted with some sort of bias by the author.

Of course we are but that's not the point (in my opinion).

We are talking about dog whistle journalsim.


dog whistles by their very nature are MOSTLY designed to appeal to the baser instincts, (yes that means racism , sexism, etc ) because those concepts are frowned upon in our society (rightly or wrongly - I think rightly) so the whistlers have to come up with tactics that arent as blatant as using sexist or racist language.
