Kerri-Anne Kennerly becomes more irrelevant with every desperately controversial thing she says, she is slowly fading from view like Marty McFly’s family in that photoWhile Kennerley, along with Fenech, Sorrenti, Delaney and cartoonists Warren Brown and Johannes Leak believe that “political correctness is killing the larrikin”, Valentine said that the “larrikinism of the past was male, quite bullying and was directed at everyone else except themselves”.
“The notion that Australians can laugh at themselves – oh yeah? Tell me the joke where the white male is the punchline,” Valentine, who wrote a“The punchline’s OK if it’s the Aborigine, the woman, the migrant, young people, old people, disabled people, all other religions except their own – all that’s fine. But that’s not larrikinism, that’s just bullying, that’s just nasty.”
While “there’s no doubt that the way we thought 20 and 30 years ago was not right and the pendulum did have to swing,” Sorrenti said, “it has swung too far, and that’s equally not right”. “People go to a comedy show to see this stuff, to air the dirty linen, to get this stuff out there so people feel more comfortable about these issues when they’re being talked about, when they’re being humourised.”Paul Fenech said he hates political correctness, adding all of his shows “are getting more and more politically incorrect”.
“I think the concept of political correctness, say in terms of making things fair for people in the workplace and all that, that’s fine. But you don’t touch humour. You’ve gotta leave humour alone.”trending in entertainment

The number one reason why I never watch The Project and seldom tune in to Ch 10.
Being right isn't racist.
Breaking news KAK is a out dated old bag that can’t control her cake hole
Good.
Not politically correct... Or morally correct Or logically correct Or ethically correct Or historically correct Etc, etc...
She is allowed to have and express her opinion it’s her right.
Well done KAK, loving watching these speech-cleansers get annoyed, it's priceless
Crazy how having an opinion that isn't that of the majority of a the younger gen is now considered a 'rant'... Why can't she have her opinion and voice it with the medium she has earned and is currently on Like what is going on that people can no longer have an opinion
Who’s watching?
oh ffs. plenty of experienced media personalities have had their careers annihilated for far less.
The perennially offended will be even more offended now.
Redneck boomer
Keep going love it's ok
Calling out the woke crew of people searching for things to upset them should not be seen as a problem.
Dreadful old dragon..and Australia Post made her into a “legend” of television via her own stamp. What a joke!
You're a breath of fresh air Kerri-Anne, don't change that or apologise - please !
I would nominate her foreign secretary or Dept for Environment or perhaps Emission reduction and energy minister under ScottMorrisonMP gov. Certainly fits right in with that mob. If they don’t want her there is always Trump. He always goes for blondes, but maybe younger.
Exactly how the majority of Australians feel. Good on you KAK!!
Love KAK 💓
🤮🦠
So as we suspected she plants the rants for self promotion only.
YOU TELLEM LUV!
Nothing wrong with being un-PC
Can’t she do it alone her lounge room!!!
Awesome she speaks her mind 😊
Then she should seek medical advice
It’s called trying to cling to relevance by getting her name in the media. Everyone should just agree to ignore her
And I back her 100%
Good never give into the woke Loud minority
Keep up the good work.
Give it to em Kerri-Anne
What a landmark of stupidity.
Her husband may have been her filter. She displayed much more empathy when be was alive. Now she is trying to by another Prue.
Why the pile-on? She told the truth
Telling the truth isn’t a rant.
Good on her for expressing an opinion.
The crazed ferals are manipulated into frenzies by media such as this, they will make sure she is torn down. The madness is being embedded.
Good, she can keep up the good work causing the woke to go bonkers.
Which is also known as ... attention seeking
omg i love her 😭
Men don't have the monopoly for being antiquated dinosaurs
Then get her off television. Simple.
Is it Tourette's, or is she a self-indulgent little-brain, do you think?
She is why I don’t watch studio 10 anymore and I’m not alone in that. She is horrible and so up herself

Deb Frecklington can’t ‘blame gender’ for bad approval ratings | Sky News AustraliaThe Assistant Editor at The West Australian says Queensland Opposition Leader Deb Frecklington cannot “blame your gender on the fact that you may not have personal numbers” or have issues with the ‘faceless’ party members.\n\nLeaked internal polling has revealed Ms Frecklington would likely lose a number of seats at the next election.\n\nShe accused a number of people white-anting her for promoting a number of women to key seats but stated she would “not be bullied by the backroom boys of the LNP”.\n\nMs Clarke said if a leader has issues with the “backroom boys” who may be too weak to “actually have a crack at the leadership” then they should tackle them front on.\n\n“Don’t rely on that lazy argument ‘it’s because I’m a woman and they’re blokes, and that’s why they want me out’” Ms Clarke told Sky News host Paul Murray.\n\n“If you are deficient in any way you maybe need to take responsibility for yourself”.\n\nSky News host Graham Richardson said if Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk were to win three elections “it would be a terrible condemnation of the coalition”.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia jennamclarke DebFrecklington I dont even fucking understand what kind of statement is this jennamclarke DebFrecklington nothing to see here in the branch stacking of the Liberals

'Reform conversations' gain momentum from ongoing US protests | Sky News AustraliaProtests across the United States in response to the death of George Floyd and Rayshard Brooks are the culmination of years of police brutality, according to the New Republic staff writer Osita Nwanevu.\n\nProtests continue across the US after black man Rayshard Brooks was shot dead by Atlanta police at the weekend when he resisted arrested and allegedly attempted to fire at the officers with a taser stun gun. \n\nMr Nwanevu told Sky News “protests against what happened to Rayshard Brooks are going to look like a continuation of what we’ve already been seeing these past few weeks”. \n\n“The Floyd situation I think has created new energy for reform conversations that were already going on,” he said. \n\n“I think the one change now is you also have the movement that is fundamentally interested in transforming or reworking law enforcement in conception in this country.\n\n“Whether that conversation develops into something that lasts beyond the next couple of weeks and is carried into the political future I think remains to be seen.” \n\nImage: AP This is not protesting ffs it’s rioting call it what it is Tell us something we dont know! Why why the cops in US kills a civilian on minor scuffle, without death sentence by a competent court? And why cops shoot a black in chest to kill rather than in legs Or not let them run Culprits once identified in body camera can be arrested any time from their home.

Labor has 'its hand in the biscuit jar once again' | Sky News AustraliaVictorian Opposition Leader Michael O’Brien says the Daniel Andrews Labor Government has been in power “for too long' and they believe they 'own' the state.\n\n“Frankly they’ve got no moral compass”.\n\nIt comes as disgraced MP Adem Somyurek has quit the Victorian Labor Party less than a day after he was sacked from the Andrews ministry due to allegations he engaged in the unethical practice of branch stacking.\n\nMr Somyurek was facing expulsion from the party after a damning 60 Minutes broadcast a series of explosive secret recordings allegedly showing the former Labor MP using unethical and possibly illegal means to gain power within the state and federal Labor party.\n\nMr O’Brien says the allegations against Mr Somyurek and Victorian Labor is not the “first time the Labor Party has been caught with their hands in the biscuit jar”.\n\nThe opposition leader told Sky News host Peta Credlin the revelations gave Victorians and Australians the opportunity to “see the real character of this Labor Government under Daniel Andrews”.\n\n“He sets the standard, he determines the culture, he’s the one that says anything goes, and he can’t look shocked or surprised when people take him at his word and engage in appalling conduct”.\n michaelobrienmp DanielAndrewsMP Labor will still win because Libs are struggling. michaelobrienmp DanielAndrewsMP The Labor Party have been in government in Victoria for less time than the Coalition have been at the federal level. This argument is nonsense. michaelobrienmp DanielAndrewsMP That’s the federal government you’re thinking of

Branch-stacking scandal will haunt Labor into next election: Lambie | Sky News AustraliaIndependent Senator Jacqui Lambie says branch-stacking is an issue right across the political spectrum and has called for an inquiry to be launched into both the major political parties. \n\n“I certainly think they need to get a grip on all this, and it’s not just the Labor Party, it’s the Liberal Party as well,” she told Sky News on Wednesday. \n\n“I mean this branch stacking’s been going on for years and years and I cannot believe the amount of people already involved. \n\n“I think there should be an inquiry on branch stacking right across the country into both the major parties. \n\n“Let’s get to the bottom of this once and for all and see just how far this is going through both of them.” \n\nWith branch-stacking allegations already claiming the scalps of three Labor MPs in Victoria, Senator Lambie said she would be surprised if the issue wasn’t more widespread. \n\n“I can’t believe, after watching that report, that there isn’t a lot more people who knew exactly what was going on here and nobody did a God-damned thing,” she said. \n\nThe Tasmanian Senator said the scandal would haunt Labor into the next election if it did not make its inquiry transparent. \n\n'If they don’t come out and tell the truth and bring everything out into the open, Labor’s really going to struggle into the next election,' she said. JacquiLambie Every branch that was stacked has a member who should not be in power, a potential person in the pocket of special interest and foreign powers. They must all resign. JacquiLambie Maybe Stuart Robert and yourself could do it. JacquiLambie they may lose some seats in Vic... but they'll still win, the opposition is totally useless here
