CV and mad panic behaviour

[Mav]

The Sydney shock jocks are the biggest problem. 2GB’s Ben Fordham was a big supporter of Gladys but turned his guns on her when she announced the lockdown. Alan Jones has continued to attack the lockdown although Ray Hadley attacked both of them over their stances.

Lest we forget how much sway Alan Jones has (or at least had), IIRC a Labor PM (I think it was Rudd) sent the guy who he was about to name to the Defence Ministry to see Alan Jones to seek his advice on that portfolio. Obviously, it was less to seek advice than avoid excoriation, but it’s amazing that Labor felt it needed to pander to a right-wing shock jock. How much harder would it be for a conservative Premier when he could incite her base to turn on her.
