yep, a friend
exactly right. The old "gallon of milk" question was done by journos in the Reagan era in the US. That's how old and dumb these kind of gotcha questions are.

Must admit I'm getting a little concerned about Albo's ability to handle the press.
They're coming after him with incredibly tough questions & he's waffling a bit.
He's got to learn the dance steps better or he'll stumble..
If only the press went after Morrison as hard.

Just reading about the first of Morrison's captain's picks in NSW to bite the dust (there will undoubtedly be more to come). Katherine Deves in Warringah said she is triggered by the rainbow flag and has hired Zali Steggall's ex-husband's new wife as her campaign manager. Classy. It's like both sides are trying to lose this election at the moment.

‘New low’: Steggall slams Liberal rival for recruiting ex-husband’s new wife
Seven Liberal sources said Steggall’s ex-husband’s new wife Bridie Nolan was acting as Katherine Deves’ campaign manager.
Katherine Deves is horrible, Bridie Nolan worse. The two of them are a pit of snakes.

NSW Liberal candidate described campaign supporting LGBT youth as ‘grooming tactic’ used by ‘gender extremists’
On a now-deleted website, Katherine Deves criticised NSW police for endorsing Wear it Purple Day and makes a series of inflammatory posts about trans people
Captains Picks? No, this is just Slomo standing up for women. He loves women. He's married to one, so he knows all about women.Just reading about the first of Morrison's captain's picks in NSW to bite the dust (there will undoubtedly be more to come).

what always made me furious was that she SAT IN THE PARLIAMENT next to Abbott despite never being elected to parliament. Maybe othe advisors do this, but it sucks whoever does it.
What is going on at the moment is unbelievable. The sycophantic media protection of Morrison has to stop. And we’re not even talking about the regular bad boys in Murdoch and Costello. The ABC has been appalling. Shocking actually.
When Leigh Sales interviewed Morrison last week, she failed the ask the hard questions re internal Liberal bullying, Towke and the Prayer Room. Leigh Sales was called out over it in the Twitterverse and quits Twitter.
Patricia Karvelas won’t go hard on the Liberals but is more than happy to carry on about Albo’s gaffe.
It is obvious to me that the ABC's independence has been compromised.
And don’t even get me started about the party Morrison hosted for the media. The MSM spun it that some unauthorised person raided the party, but no one seems to questioning why this party is allowed to happen in the first place.
I don’t want favouritism for either side. I just want balanced reporting. Australia is a democracy. we're less than a week in and i just can't take it anymore.

Agree with your comments about the ABC, and especially you're last sentance.
The bloke on Tuesday afternoon just had to ask every guest about Albo getting a question wrong. It was getting tiring. Yet he and Fran Kelly basically laugh off Liberal politician guests getting caught out just making stuff up - after the interview - without any follow up. It's just forgotten about and move on to Albo again.
It's pretty bad
Blaming Labor for not supporting the their *smile* weak ICAC bill is galling. The reality is he knows that if they debate the bill it will be amended to something that actually has strong and public investigative powers and that his government will likely be one of its first targets!
Good question was asked of this today of Morrison as to what he’s done to address some of Labor’s requests to get it done. Basically said a couple of lawyers have looked at it but has done NOTHING to try & address Labor’s requests to get a Federal ICAC across the line. That’s extremely galling & says it all. His way or nothing.
Then started rambling on about the Kangaroo court that was the NSW ICAC & how peoples reputations were damaged blah blah.
FFS he doesn’t want the Libs to face scrutiny for one simple reason.
Lack of trust will kill this guy dead.
Not galling. He knows the friendly media will spin run with those headlines. ICAC not delivered because ALP wouldn't work together on it. The large % of Australians who rely on MSM or Facebook posts for their up to date news will believe it.
