He wouldn't really talk to them, they asked other people what they thought, and the article doesn't give an overall bad impression of him.

"They are the ones coming out to regional areas and asking questions. We've seen the demise of our regional TV news, our papers are doing it tough and we are having less and less say. Friendlyjordies are filling the spot." "
@@YouAreStillNotablaze You seem confused about what the word "imply" means. They talk about a dude under investigation for sexual assault and then adds that Shanks is also under investigation and elaborates no further. They're CLEARLY implying he's also under investigation for sexual assault which isn't true, anyone would assume so from reading that.

The second is more detached view where the individual pieces are a means to an end, where as the other may result in similar ends but the initial purpose is creating the art to be seen and then using it to fund the ability to produce art.

Great video Jordan. Here's a funny story for you: I was actually reading the SMH the day they published their hit piece on you. I'm not sure why I was on their website on that particular day because I never read their rubbish. I was intrigued by the headline and gave that article a read. I wasn't sure what to make of it so I decided to check out your channel and form my own opinions of you. That day I spent upwards of six hours watching your videos and hit the subscribe button. So their hit piece landed you a new sub and I'm sure I'm not the only one. You've given me a new-found interest in politics; it's so refreshing to have a source of information outside of the propaganda institutions. You're upfront and honest about your partisanship and respect your audience enough to not attempt deception. Thank you for the content you provide.
Jesus she could have just said "No comment!" Christo basically handed that option to her and she didn't just say it! Jeez what is up with these journalists that call you? It's like they all got the job without learning basic principles
I had a teacher who recommended the class read the Sydney morning herald because it's 'Bipartisan' and when I suggested Michael West he said it's too partisan.
This is a thing all over the world. But especially in markets like Aus, UK and US where Murdoch holds sway. And, yes, I know Murdoch doesn't own 9/Fairfax, but he may as well. He does by proxy.
@@maqimusic I am not a fan of Murdoch and its not just a Murdoch thing. Mainstream journalism on the whole is absolute shit and is brainwashing the country. Once you switch off the TV and get your news from a variety of social media such as youtube you should be in better shape.
This is absolutely disgusting. They can’t even carry their own opinion in a phone conversation on the record, and yet they ask you to do EXACTLY THAT to SMEAR YOU!
If the interview is for a publication then what they say is public record. Just imagine what could be done if @friendlyjordies actually quoted what Lucy and Fergus says? Because Costello would have them out on their ass the next morning.
Brutal and at all times fair. Growing up I was a Liberal voter because my family voted Liberal. But once I got a little older and began to dig into what politics was, I changed because the corruption of the LNP was something I could not accept in good conscience. Thank you Jordy and co, your channel gives me great quality content and substance to challenge others on their 'indoctrinated' world view.
I just have to say, Jordies is a deadset ethical legend. His own boss in effect is Google, because he lives off ad rev from these videos. Yet he is baller enough to do Vids telling his fans to ditch google for Ecosia, so their ad rev goes to planting trees instead of just making Alphabet bigger. Works hard for the boss, and flips him off and steals his bosses money to plant trees. What a Mad Lad.
Google will probably start censoring him if they haven't already. They've done it to thousands of others. They deliberately shove the MSM in your face while those who oppose them are squashed. They cover this up and whe acknowledging it just say they're "fighting hate"
@@drifter402 honestly wondering if they're purposefully letting him continue, he's raising the bill the government is trying to pass to get Google to pay to show certain articles. So bringing that to front is worth a shit tonne more than the followers going to ecosia 🤷♂️
@@THEedcbb3 Perhaps. I mean they won't outright ban him unless they can get him for "hate speech" or something. Their usual tactic is just to do what they did to Leafy
Thanks Jordie, I've been trying to teach my teenage son about how bad mass media is for ages but thanks to you he now holds a 'healthy ' opinion of the scumbags.
I love your "magnifying glass" analogy wrt the media. They only magnify what they want you to see and what isn't magnified is ignored, and if there is something they don't like, and can't be ignored, they'll move the glass far enough away so as to burn it, so that no one can see it.
Jordan doesn’t out and out say it but basically given far less resources him and his team are better journalists than any of these muppets taking shots at them.
@@midgetwars1 'resources' as opposed to 'sources' - like the video they did on The Nationals controlling small country town seats. Like he said, they actually tried to find the corruption so they drove out there with one camera and a few phones and started asking people questions.
@@onceonly1111 True, that's the investigative part. But he doesn't need the SMH sources if he hates them that much. He hardly ever references murdoch and when he does, it's "even Murdoch".
@@midgetwars1 you’re missing the point though, sure he will use Fairfax (amongst other sites/institutions/whatever) for reporting on mostly literal facts (i.e. law X is being introduced, X many koalas have been killed in this bushfire, this MP resigned from office) or pieces with slant/opinion, but the way in which these topics are reported on, the frequency with which they’re reported, the omission of certain information/facts from pieces which are pushed front and centre, the different ideas which are pushed to the audience and overall the way that an agenda is curated is much more significant and important to analyse rather than simply the fact that certain things were stated or reported on (let alone all the things which AREN’T reported on). Like Jordan said, the SMH has literally reported on Coalition land clearing and other environmental failures, transport and infrastructure shortcomings and more, and yet when it comes to direct corruption evidence against Gladys and time for scrutiny from the press, that past information is all but selectively forgotten and puff pieces are put out to humanise her, even ignoring the current blatant corruption allegations. And this is how Jordan is saying an agenda is curated, by on paper seeming like you’re impartial because you can go ‘no actually we said this bad thing about the libs one time so that means we’re not biased towards them’ when really that means shit compared to every other way in which they’ve unseemingly supported them under everyone’s noses.
The simple fact that Journalists, who are given money to talk about shit, when asked to talk about shit, don't, has got to be the biggest red flag in the history of human existence.
Man, I live in California and know nothing about Australian politics, but you've got me convinced! ...or rather, you would have me convinced if I knew what the Australian political parties were. At the very least I can easily agree with you about corporate-media-government corruption, because that transcends borders and oceans.
After 8 months of watching Friendlyjordies, I now know much more about Australian politics and can name at least 6 parties: - Liberals - Labor (no 'u') - Nationals - Green - Shooters, Farmers, and Fishers - Clive Palmer Thanks Jordan!
it is amusing that the liberals here are the equivalent of your republicans - took me years to work that out as used to confuse the hell out of me as watching some conservative channels they would bag the liberals (only in the last few years have I realise these are the democrats...lol)
@@jacksonjguyguadagnino5792 Labor is the party of the workers, Liberals are the bosses, the ones that exploit the workers. That's all you need to know really. But you're doing excellent knowing 6, that's more than many aussies.
"Former Rudd political strategist Bruce Hawker said Shanks' style was "the story of new media". He said the friendlyjordies approach was not necessarily different to that of Barry Humphries or Monty Python, who were "merciless" in the way they made fun of people and institutions." Holy shit.
@@mIGHtyClif Er....seems like you've not seen a lot of Python or Barry Humphries, I mean, Les Patterson was a scathing caricature of politics in the 70s-80s, and Python were ALWAYS being grilled by British critics over their treatment of the church and government. Monty Python isn't just The Holy Grail.
@The Exposer Media collaborating with Bruz to bring down someone trying to uncover said Bruz's corruption is not protecting a source. Its just more corruption.. Which is why they couldn't, nay wouldn't answer that simple yes/no question..
Try beau of the fifth column, not as out and out sarcastic but good sociopolitical commentary and some solutions like community networking etc. If you want the bite "some more news' with Cody showdy is funny as
Long-time listener, first-time caller. Working my way through the catalogue - this piece is an excellent encapsulation of Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent, great gatekeeping by Christo and it would all be funnier if it wasn't true. Pryor, Williams, Hicks, Carlin, Chappelle, Jefferies - why is it that most politicians are clowns, yet comedians are the most insightful political commentators? Here's Tom with the weather...
I honestly grew up with no interest/knowledge in politics whatsoever. So I am just so thankful I stumbled across friendlyjordies videos. I truly feel like I am getting the “truth” of what’s really going on - this video definitely confirms that. Amazing research done on his part, so much time and passion.
a bit too pro labor for me (or pro left) and not as independent as I would like (I don't know if there is a channel truely independent.. we are all biased... even if we say or think we aren't..) .. I am an unapologetic liberal I guess....
@@albertbresca8904 I think that it’s a little hard to be unbiased when one party is destroying natural habitats and funding largely all-encompassing media indoctrination and one isn’t, though.
@@albertbresca8904 To be fair, Jordies doesn't claim to be non-partisan. On the contrary, he is proudly pro labour (Even says so in this exact video). That shouldn't really matter though, so long as it is clear and both him and his viewers are conscious of those biases.
@@MartinFinnerup thanks for that as i wasn't sure ... i thought he went under the premise of being independent.. or so my lefty friend keeps showing him down my throat saying he is saying the truth... just a another lefty hack... sigh
@The Exposer thanks for validating jordies point about how nine Fairfax doesn’t report on what Jodi does to damage her reputation amongst the NSW population. Another point is that how do you expect the leader of the party that does not have the majority in government to not dO nOtHinG without the support of the liberals or nationals?
It will public interest is thinning out from covid & election bombardment to now be acknowledging other sicknesses in the community stemming from capitalist political influence
I'm an American and know nothing about Aussie politics, I still enjoyed this absolute masterful takedown though. Really well done! Shit, we need someone like you here in the States.
have you watched America Uncovered.. found that recently to give me a new perspective of US politics... i found yours way more interesting that boring ol aussie politics....
I know I'm super late to this, but the unfortunate thing is that the corruption is basically a badge of honor in american politics. Everyone knows that most of the politicians are corrupt, probably around this level if they think they can get away with it. The corruption is so obvious that most people, even a good chunk of those that vote, already know about it. Another issue is that american politics is so crazy I swear each party could form their own religion around them if they wanted to.
Great vid, but I just want to add a point that might be assumed but needs to be clarified in my opinion: The headline of the article itself is an admission of guilt, purely in the language it uses. By this, I mean the following: If you watch friendlyjordies for any length of time (as these journos should have done but obviously didn't do) the main point of his videos are obvious: highlight problems in Australia's media, politics and culture, often using comedy as a chaser. Things like corruption, greed, bias - basically everything explored in this video. With this in mind, calling friendlyjordies a problem to be fixed is the same as the Coalition and 9/Fairfax saying "we are corrupt, greedy and biased, and we want to continue being that way without repercussions or consequences. Jordies is standing in our way, how do we get rid of him?" - the result of this being trying to solve the 'problem' that is some of the only hard-hitting and rigorous journalism in the country. It's disgusting. The MSM is not real journalism, it's a machine for manufacturing consent and controlling a nation, and the existence of this article alone is a demonstration of that.
I swear to god, I was 40 mins into the segment before realizing they weren't in fact asking how to solve problems the Jordie way, but actually asking how to solve the problem of Jordie. Jesus fuck, "they cluck their necks and stroke their beards and ask, what's to be done about this Homer Simpson?"
@@tomiantenna7279 I recognised the reference to The Sound of Music, so I understood the title meant Jordies was the "problem". But it only makes the reference even more baffling, because the women who sing the song (How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria) in the movie are nuns who don't know what to do with Maria because she's airheaded, wild, annoying, and essentially....not a "proper"" nun like them. Maybe the journos didn't look into the reference THAT deeply, but if they did, does that mean they consider themselves the good, righteous, godly nuns in the analogy? Its hilarious.
Ay mate, can we get a vid about the nsw ICAC facing the threat of funding cuts from the NSW govt.... and the irony that the Independent Commission Against Corruption is apparently dependant on funding from NSW govt.... :)
The funding has to come from somewhere. But it does raise some serious Qs... Even more reason to have a federal ICAC. Definitely looking forward to Jordies covering this
I love you Jordies. Stick it to the fucking man. I'm so happy we have someone like you in Australia. I've always felt there's nothing that can be done about the media scum and that the people with the money will always have the power. Thank you. Profit of our fucking generation!
Come on now, the Sky news comments section is the best thing anywhere on the internet. It is the greatest collection of mixed nuts and I reckon only about .1% ever make any sort of sense.
@@Deschutron They are going to implicate Jordan in the next *murder committed with a firearm* by emphasising his association with *The Fudds, Fishers and Farmers Party*
Mate, superb video. Super incisive. Had to come back and watch it again to get your "alternative" media outlet recommendations. (Michael West and Independent Australia, for anyone else playing along at home.)
We are all independent, and we all demonstrate our independence by all writing the same stories, sounding the same and targeting the same sides of politics with similar ratios of puff pieces and (attempted) hit jobs
The UK needs someone like Jordan, seriously I’m more interested in another countries politics because of him. Been following him for years, and now I’m older and trying to figure politics out it’s good there’s someone who says the facts. Surprised he doesn’t have more subscribers by now, been loving the skits for as long as I can remember.

Hey mate, love your stuff and have been following you for a while. I think some of my family and friends would really benefit from your material, problem is I don't know where to start them off, allot of your stuff assumes prior knowledge of previous videos or gets the message across in such a way as to turn off someone who hasn't quite gotten the bigger picture yet. I'm sure I'm not the only person struggling with this issue and was wondering if it might be worth the effort of putting together a "Welcome to friendlyjordies" playlist on your TH-cam channel, something that starts people off slow with simple easy to understand concepts and builds the narrative of media and liberal corruption for the new viewer, fence sitter or even a liberal voter. I think a playlist like this could be an amazingly powerful tool to get your message across to a wider audience. It would allow your viewers to refer someone to your content with something as simple as a TH-cam link. As it currently stands I hesitate to share your content with allot of olde friends or family even the Labour supporters, without me being there to watch along side for fear of them writing you off, from a silly or obviously partisan comment, before they have the chance to get your humour or understand why your partisan nature is seen by you and your followers as badge of honour. You often end your videos with a call to arms, a rallying cry to share the information with family and friends and help change the vote. I think a playlist like this could make it a thousand times easier for that to happen and would really mobilise the 471k strong army in a way that previously hasn't been possible by taking away the need to "hand hold" throughout the introduction to your content
Dude I’m an American watching through all your videos for the comedy s the actual investigative journalism. We need someone like you, I’m subbed to over 350 channels and I don’t know of an American who does this level of investigative journalism, let alone while being this funny
I can recommend the channel Sir Swag. They do a monthly video series called "this month's news without the bullshit". They also do more detailed takes on specific news topics sometimes. I know about friendlyjordies because of them.
@@ForgedinPrintYeah Coffee does great financial journalism, wish we could get more political smackdowns like Jordies though. On a similar note, if you like both of these youtubers, you might like Munecat too!
I’m a bit late to this party, but I just have to say that was two of the most meticulously executed, totally brutal public murders I have ever had the pleasure of witnessing. It was absolutely visceral! For a beautiful metaphor have a look at the bikie scene in A Bronx Tale when the mafia boss locks the door on the bikies and they realise what a big mistake they just made and how much pain they’re about to feel. “Now yous can’t leave”. Beautifully done Jordies! Now - go get Scotty from Marketing 👍
One of the things that really gets me, is when you said you see people more than just a market. Along with what you said, you have an entire self help channel devoted to empowering people in whatever they do. Sure you talk about how it helps you clarify what you want to do, but personally it's helped so much. Since Quarantine, that material that you shared, led me onto Tony Robbins, onto other courses and has helped me get out of the biggest rut I've ever been in, both as an actor and in my personal life. So thank you for that and this three course meal of tearing the mouthpieces and their masters to shreds.
Hey, politically minded yank here. Was introduced to u through moistcritikal and have been going down the rabbit hole. This channel is a testament to the power of a truly free press.
Had to watch this twice to fully appreciate the complete machete job Jordies just did on 9Fairfax and those two cannon fodder stool pigeons. Hung. Drawn. Quartered.
The constant theme that's coming out of the clips of Cristo/Jordies talking to journos is that there's clearly a battle for control over the conversation. It's hypothetically addictive watching the duck and weaving.

Great video Jordan. Here's a funny story for you:
I was actually reading the SMH the day they published their hit piece on you. I'm not sure why I was on their website on that particular day because I never read their rubbish. I was intrigued by the headline and gave that article a read. I wasn't sure what to make of it so I decided to check out your channel and form my own opinions of you. That day I spent upwards of six hours watching your videos and hit the subscribe button.
So their hit piece landed you a new sub and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
You've given me a new-found interest in politics; it's so refreshing to have a source of information outside of the propaganda institutions. You're upfront and honest about your partisanship and respect your audience enough to not attempt deception. Thank you for the content you provide.
Welcome. This is a place of fun and games
I was the same.
Welcome aboard
Great to hear! Welcome. We need more people like Jordan.
Its nice to have the shit cleaned away from your glasses aye
Jesus she could have just said "No comment!" Christo basically handed that option to her and she didn't just say it! Jeez what is up with these journalists that call you? It's like they all got the job without learning basic principles
Maybe that's their way of showing that they don't entirely agree with what they're being made to do either...
@@riaforner635 If they don't agree with what they are being made to do then there's a ton of options they could do besides just continuing to do it

This is a thing all over the world. But especially in markets like Aus, UK and US where Murdoch holds sway. And, yes, I know Murdoch doesn't own 9/Fairfax, but he may as well. He does by proxy.
That's the hive mind speaking.

@@maqimusic I am not a fan of Murdoch and its not just a Murdoch thing. Mainstream journalism on the whole is absolute shit and is brainwashing the country. Once you switch off the TV and get your news from a variety of social media such as youtube you should be in better shape.
I find it hilarious that this "news outlet" can be acronymed as "SMH"
This is absolutely disgusting. They can’t even carry their own opinion in a phone conversation on the record, and yet they ask you to do EXACTLY THAT to SMEAR YOU!
That's why they won't do it, cause they know what THEY would do with that info if the roles were reveresed.
If the interview is for a publication then what they say is public record. Just imagine what could be done if @friendlyjordies actually quoted what Lucy and Fergus says?
Because Costello would have them out on their ass the next morning.

public vs private?
"I don't have a market, I have a duty" Friendly Jordies 2020 should have just dropped the mic right there
Claiming that you are independent so many times gives the impression that you are fervently trying to convince yourself more than anybody else.
Classic "Thou doth protest too much".. or something like that😁
“There is no war in Ba Sing Se”
Brutal and at all times fair. Growing up I was a Liberal voter because my family voted Liberal. But once I got a little older and began to dig into what politics was, I changed because the corruption of the LNP was something I could not accept in good conscience. Thank you Jordy and co, your channel gives me great quality content and substance to challenge others on their 'indoctrinated' world view.
Can we get a crowdfund going to get Jordan to do attack ads next election?
Reporting on the Ndia would be good as well.
Who else thinks jordies is going to start a wave of actual investigative and truth based journalists?
I can only hope
...he's not going to start it. He is it. And he's inspiring me to be it toooooooooo.
@The Exposer , you should make a video to 'expose' it
@The Exposer is... is that you, Barilaro?
@The Exposer Looking forward to The Exposer's exposé
I just have to say, Jordies is a deadset ethical legend. His own boss in effect is Google, because he lives off ad rev from these videos. Yet he is baller enough to do Vids telling his fans to ditch google for Ecosia, so their ad rev goes to planting trees instead of just making Alphabet bigger. Works hard for the boss, and flips him off and steals his bosses money to plant trees. What a Mad Lad.
still using ecosia, he has influence haha
Google will probably start censoring him if they haven't already. They've done it to thousands of others. They deliberately shove the MSM in your face while those who oppose them are squashed. They cover this up and whe acknowledging it just say they're "fighting hate"
@@drifter402 honestly wondering if they're purposefully letting him continue, he's raising the bill the government is trying to pass to get Google to pay to show certain articles. So bringing that to front is worth a shit tonne more than the followers going to ecosia 🤷♂️
@@THEedcbb3 Perhaps. I mean they won't outright ban him unless they can get him for "hate speech" or something. Their usual tactic is just to do what they did to Leafy
I've been using Ecosia since that video, I hate it, it reminds me that the internet isn't as good as it seemed, but I keep on going for Jordan.
Thanks Jordie, I've been trying to teach my teenage son about how bad mass media is for ages but thanks to you he now holds a 'healthy ' opinion of the scumbags.

I love your "magnifying glass" analogy wrt the media. They only magnify what they want you to see and what isn't magnified is ignored, and if there is something they don't like, and can't be ignored, they'll move the glass far enough away so as to burn it, so that no one can see it.
Jordan doesn’t out and out say it but basically given far less resources him and his team are better journalists than any of these muppets taking shots at them.
Half his sources come from Fairfax though. That's the funny part
@@midgetwars1 'resources' as opposed to 'sources' - like the video they did on The Nationals controlling small country town seats. Like he said, they actually tried to find the corruption so they drove out there with one camera and a few phones and started asking people questions.
He does though? He literally said it a few times this video.
@@onceonly1111 True, that's the investigative part. But he doesn't need the SMH sources if he hates them that much. He hardly ever references murdoch and when he does, it's "even Murdoch".
@@midgetwars1 you’re missing the point though, sure he will use Fairfax (amongst other sites/institutions/whatever) for reporting on mostly literal facts (i.e. law X is being introduced, X many koalas have been killed in this bushfire, this MP resigned from office) or pieces with slant/opinion, but the way in which these topics are reported on, the frequency with which they’re reported, the omission of certain information/facts from pieces which are pushed front and centre, the different ideas which are pushed to the audience and overall the way that an agenda is curated is much more significant and important to analyse rather than simply the fact that certain things were stated or reported on (let alone all the things which AREN’T reported on). Like Jordan said, the SMH has literally reported on Coalition land clearing and other environmental failures, transport and infrastructure shortcomings and more, and yet when it comes to direct corruption evidence against Gladys and time for scrutiny from the press, that past information is all but selectively forgotten and puff pieces are put out to humanise her, even ignoring the current blatant corruption allegations. And this is how Jordan is saying an agenda is curated, by on paper seeming like you’re impartial because you can go ‘no actually we said this bad thing about the libs one time so that means we’re not biased towards them’ when really that means shit compared to every other way in which they’ve unseemingly supported them under everyone’s noses.
The simple fact that Journalists, who are given money to talk about shit, when asked to talk about shit, don't, has got to be the biggest red flag in the history of human existence.
their literal entire business model is people pay them not to publish damaging stories and to make them look good
Man, I live in California and know nothing about Australian politics, but you've got me convinced! ...or rather, you would have me convinced if I knew what the Australian political parties were. At the very least I can easily agree with you about corporate-media-government corruption, because that transcends borders and oceans.
After 8 months of watching Friendlyjordies, I now know much more about Australian politics and can name at least 6 parties:
- Liberals
- Labor (no 'u')
- Nationals
- Green
- Shooters, Farmers, and Fishers
- Clive Palmer
Thanks Jordan!
it is amusing that the liberals here are the equivalent of your republicans - took me years to work that out as used to confuse the hell out of me as watching some conservative channels they would bag the liberals (only in the last few years have I realise these are the democrats...lol)

Long-time listener, first-time caller. Working my way through the catalogue - this piece is an excellent encapsulation of Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent, great gatekeeping by Christo and it would all be funnier if it wasn't true. Pryor, Williams, Hicks, Carlin, Chappelle, Jefferies - why is it that most politicians are clowns, yet comedians are the most insightful political commentators?
Here's Tom with the weather...
I honestly grew up with no interest/knowledge in politics whatsoever. So I am just so thankful I stumbled across friendlyjordies videos. I truly feel like I am getting the “truth” of what’s really going on - this video definitely confirms that. Amazing research done on his part, so much time and passion.
a bit too pro labor for me (or pro left) and not as independent as I would like (I don't know if there is a channel truely independent.. we are all biased... even if we say or think we aren't..) .. I am an unapologetic liberal I guess....

@@albertbresca8904 To be fair, Jordies doesn't claim to be non-partisan. On the contrary, he is proudly pro labour (Even says so in this exact video).
That shouldn't really matter though, so long as it is clear and both him and his viewers are conscious of those biases.

HasanAbi is a really great twitch streamer/ youtuber that talks about politics.
I know I'm super late to this, but the unfortunate thing is that the corruption is basically a badge of honor in american politics. Everyone knows that most of the politicians are corrupt, probably around this level if they think they can get away with it. The corruption is so obvious that most people, even a good chunk of those that vote, already know about it.
Another issue is that american politics is so crazy I swear each party could form their own religion around them if they wanted to.

Great vid, but I just want to add a point that might be assumed but needs to be clarified in my opinion:
The headline of the article itself is an admission of guilt, purely in the language it uses. By this, I mean the following:
If you watch friendlyjordies for any length of time (as these journos should have done but obviously didn't do) the main point of his videos are obvious: highlight problems in Australia's media, politics and culture, often using comedy as a chaser. Things like corruption, greed, bias - basically everything explored in this video. With this in mind, calling friendlyjordies a problem to be fixed is the same as the Coalition and 9/Fairfax saying "we are corrupt, greedy and biased, and we want to continue being that way without repercussions or consequences. Jordies is standing in our way, how do we get rid of him?" - the result of this being trying to solve the 'problem' that is some of the only hard-hitting and rigorous journalism in the country. It's disgusting.
The MSM is not real journalism, it's a machine for manufacturing consent and controlling a nation, and the existence of this article alone is a demonstration of that.
I swear to god, I was 40 mins into the segment before realizing they weren't in fact asking how to solve problems the Jordie way, but actually asking how to solve the problem of Jordie. Jesus fuck, "they cluck their necks and stroke their beards and ask, what's to be done about this Homer Simpson?"
@@tomiantenna7279 I recognised the reference to The Sound of Music, so I understood the title meant Jordies was the "problem". But it only makes the reference even more baffling, because the women who sing the song (How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria) in the movie are nuns who don't know what to do with Maria because she's airheaded, wild, annoying, and essentially....not a "proper"" nun like them. Maybe the journos didn't look into the reference THAT deeply, but if they did, does that mean they consider themselves the good, righteous, godly nuns in the analogy? Its hilarious.
Ay mate, can we get a vid about the nsw ICAC facing the threat of funding cuts from the NSW govt.... and the irony that the Independent Commission Against Corruption is apparently dependant on funding from NSW govt.... :)
Lower house voted against it today
Everyone passed it in upper house.
A statement was made via @JodiMcKayMP Facebook page
The funding has to come from somewhere. But it does raise some serious Qs... Even more reason to have a federal ICAC. Definitely looking forward to Jordies covering this
I was going to say "man, you didn't have to murder the entire paper like that", but gotta say they deserve it.

Hey mate, love your stuff and have been following you for a while. I think some of my family and friends would really benefit from your material, problem is I don't know where to start them off, allot of your stuff assumes prior knowledge of previous videos or gets the message across in such a way as to turn off someone who hasn't quite gotten the bigger picture yet.
I'm sure I'm not the only person struggling with this issue and was wondering if it might be worth the effort of putting together a "Welcome to friendlyjordies" playlist on your TH-cam channel, something that starts people off slow with simple easy to understand concepts and builds the narrative of media and liberal corruption for the new viewer, fence sitter or even a liberal voter.
I think a playlist like this could be an amazingly powerful tool to get your message across to a wider audience. It would allow your viewers to refer someone to your content with something as simple as a TH-cam link.
As it currently stands I hesitate to share your content with allot of olde friends or family even the Labour supporters, without me being there to watch along side for fear of them writing you off, from a silly or obviously partisan comment, before they have the chance to get your humour or understand why your partisan nature is seen by you and your followers as badge of honour.
You often end your videos with a call to arms, a rallying cry to share the information with family and friends and help change the vote. I think a playlist like this could make it a thousand times easier for that to happen and would really mobilise the 471k strong army in a way that previously hasn't been possible by taking away the need to "hand hold" throughout the introduction to your content

Beautifully done Jordies! Now - go get Scotty from Marketing 👍
Every Jordies video has brought me a little closer to picking up Chomsky's collected works and that video has put me over the edge.
One of the things that really gets me, is when you said you see people more than just a market. Along with what you said, you have an entire self help channel devoted to empowering people in whatever they do. Sure you talk about how it helps you clarify what you want to do, but personally it's helped so much. Since Quarantine, that material that you shared, led me onto Tony Robbins, onto other courses and has helped me get out of the biggest rut I've ever been in, both as an actor and in my personal life. So thank you for that and this three course meal of tearing the mouthpieces and their masters to shreds.
Is it just me, or does the reporter at 0:18 kind of look like Jordie if he put on glasses and a wig?

"In other words, Lucy, unlike you, I don't have a market, I have a Duty" BOOM. Powerful stuff.

The thing that I love about this is that I missed the first 20 minutes, but I still understand what the entire video is about
"I'm an antlion, you're an ant. Thank you for the sustenance.... Nom Nom Nom" hahahaha loved this bit
was it a half life reference? HL3 confirmed!
@@n1njaweedman Antlions are real insects suprisingly!
@@johanrowe4364 thanks mate i knew that, but for some reason half life always comes to mind when hearing of em.
@@n1njaweedman Yep same here mate, same thing happens to me with barnacles lol
You are a better reporter than anyone in commercial media.
The constant theme that's coming out of the clips of Cristo/Jordies talking to journos is that there's clearly a battle for control over the conversation. It's hypothetically addictive watching the duck and weaving.
What a fucking mic drop at the end, I've heard of your channel before but only really started watching a couple months ago and loving the content
"Are you with Fairfax?"
* *long pause* *
Thats the fastest L I have seen MSM ever take, well done.
I got chills at the end. Thank you Jordies for being the hope in this media infected virus of 2020.
