Sky News contributor Mark Latham says talk of racism in popular kids TV show ‘Arthur’ trivializes, diminishes and places discussion of a serious problem into the 'theatre of the absurd.”

Sky News contributor Mark Latham says talk of racism in popular kids TV show ‘Arthur’ trivializes, diminishes and places discussion of a serious problem into the "theatre of the absurd.” The popular kids cartoon show 'Arthur' decided to throw in the message of fighting racism. A coloured female rabbit on the cartoon said “racism is like a disease, if you don’t treat it, it’s going to get worse.” “If racism is a serious problem ...

is the answer a cartoon rabbit who tells us he is so hopeless he can’t even fry an egg?” Mr Latham said. “I think it trivializes, diminishes, and turns it into the theatre of the absurd and at their call, this is leftist campaigning where all of life needs to be political - it’s laughable.

RealMarkLatham Keep calling out this evil sneaking into our schools. Thank you Real Mark Latham

RealMarkLatham I wonder if constantly berating people who are not racist can actually create a racist backlash. Normal people in the real world in Australia are not racist but are constantly being accused of being something they are not by the woke left.

WWII sailor 'Teddy' Sheean recommended for VC | Sky News AustraliaWorld War II veteran Edward ‘Teddy’ Sheean has been recommended to receive the nation’s highest honour for a service man or woman for his exemplary actions in 1942. \n\nTasmanian sailor Teddy Sheean saved the lives of some of his shipmates in 1942 after ignoring orders to abandon an Australian minesweeper which had come under heavy Japanese fire. \n\nThe 18-year-old was able to bring down one plane and damage two more before dying strapped to his weapon.\n\nPrime Minster Scott Morrison announced today that a report issued by a recent Tribunal Review into the matter had found Sheean to be an eligible recipient for the Victoria Cross.\n\nA previous attempt to recognise Sheean was heavily criticised as his actions were not seen to be worthy of a VC. \n\nMr Morrison said the report found “compelling new evidence in support for high recognition for Sheean”. \n\n“That Sheehan was done a substantial injustice in consideration of his actions in the original decision making period in 1942 to 1943,” he said. \n\nThe Prime Minister said he submitted the recommendation to the Governor General and the matter was now before Her Majesty the Queen. \n\n“We will be hopeful for what will come back as a contented response from Her Majesty,” he said. \n\n“Any ambiguity that existed before, or that had been allowed to prevail by acting hastily, that could have undermined the recommendation that we have made.\n\n“So I can now make this recommendation confidently on the basis of the process that we have followed.” \n\nImage: News Corp Australia Soldier? seems to have a fairly weak grasp on military terminology. he's a sailor, that's the whole point War memorial painting of Teddy strapped to his gun to the end.
