NEWS YOU CAN USE: Drinking Coffee and Alcohol Every Day Could Actually Help You Live Longer

Truth-tellers, the whistleblowers and the hacktivists are canaries in the coal mine of democracy.”   Thomas Drake, a former senior employee of the United States National Security Agency.


The Liberals insist Ms Abbott had no knowledge of the fake profiles and it was Mr Brown, a parliamentary staffer of MLC Catherine Cusack, who used them to post critical comments.


Mr Brown reportedly had administration rights to Ms Abbott's personal account to help with her social media campaign ahead of the election.
Ms Berejiklian side-stepped questions about whether her party should disendorse Ms Abbott, instead asking all candidates to treat each other respectfully.
Pressed again, she said: "these are matters for our state director to pursue but I know she’s there for her community and if any wrongdoing has happened then there needs to be an apology".

She pointed out that Labor's deputy leader Penny Sharpe had to recently apologise for tweeting a sign depicting her as a witch with the words "the Wicked Witch of the Fest".

“I NEED TO BE CAREFUL:” Texts Reveal Warner Bros. CEO Promoted Actress Amid Apparent Sexual Relationship, the Hollywood Reporter notes:

 At 12:10 a.m. on Sept. 27, 2013, Australian billionaire James Packer texted a 21-year-old British actress named Charlotte Kirk.
Kirk had been laboring to establish herself in Hollywood with limited success, but now Packer, who was a partner with director Brett Ratner in the film production/finance company RatPac Entertainment, was saying she was about to catch a major break.
“I have the opportunity of a lifetime for u,” Packer wrote in a text message reviewed by The Hollywood Reporter. “Come to [the Hotel] Bel air now. U will never be able to pay me.” He promised an introduction to “the most important man u can meet.” Kirk quickly agreed to the rendezvous.
Packer did not identify the man by name, but based on hundreds of texts, emails and a draft settlement agreement obtained and reviewed by THR, the late-night introduction was to Warner Bros. chairman and CEO Kevin Tsujihara. That communication and subsequent encounters between Kirk and Tsujihara drew the powerful studio chief into what Kirk repeatedly referred to as a sexual relationship. And from there the relationship devolved into a protracted and increasingly desperate struggle among Tsujihara, Ratner and Packer to manage Kirk’s urgent demands to be cast in movies and TV series. At one point, Ratner accused Kirk of attempted “extortion.”
According to the text messages, Tsujihara said he would arrange for Kirk to meet with studio executives on Warner Bros. film and TV projects, a highly unorthodox effort for the chairman of a studio. On March 3, 2015, a frustrated Kirk texted him to say, “You’re very busy I know but when we were in that motel having sex u said u would help me and when u just ignore me like you’re doing now it makes me feel used. Are u going to help me like u said u would?” Tsujihara responded: “Sorry you feel that way. Richard will be reaching out to u tonight.” Other texts make clear that the reference was to Richard Brener, then president of production at Warners’ New Line label. (There was no indication that Brener was aware of any relationship between Kirk and Tsujihara. Brener, through a WarnerMedia rep, declined to comment.)

If the allegations prove out, they’re yet another reminder, as Kyle Smith noted last fall, that “Hollywood Is a Sex-Grooming Gang.”


IN THE FUTURE, EVERYONE WILL BE HITLER GOEBBELS FOR 15 MINUTES — AND THE FUTURE IS NOW: Martina Navratilova Learns That Nothing Short of Total Surrender Will Appease Transgender Activists


Tennis great Martina Navratilova is learning the hard way that apologizing to militant transgender activists is not – and will never be – enough. 
* * * * * * * * 
Outsports writer Dawn Ennis responded to Navratilova by likening the legendary LGBTQ rights activist to …. Joseph Goebbels:



“The transgender problem”
The Nazis had “The Jewish Question,” and history records the horror which its leaders called the “Final Solution.” Navratilova treads a very dangerous line in asking if this issue of inclusion should be called a name that’s not so far off from Joseph Goebbels’ nomenclature. 
Seriously? Is this what passes for actual debate at Outsports? You really cannot rationalize with rabid fanatics who play the Hitler card every time someone makes a valid argument that hits too close to home. 



At least Chris Matthews changes it up from time to time, occasionally comparing conservatives to North Korea and the Khmer Rouge as a nice change of pace.
