Reference :- Sky News hasn't said much about the death of Mr Morrison's father .

Reference :-  The Sky anchors have been rather quiet on the occasion of Mr Morrison's bereavement . Why is that ?

 Hello there at Sky News.  You all seem a bit shy about discussing Mr Morrison's loss of his father .   It can be awkward trying to work out something to say , but it looks a bit rude if you say next to nothing .  Maybe you can get Alan Jones to do an obituary ?  He had lots to say when former Prime Minister Julia Gillard lost her father .   But though Jonesie is a sensitive and well meaning type , it might be wise to remind him to leave out that bit about fathers dying of shame because their child is  a liar .

Julia herself handled that accidental remark of Jonesie's with dignity , but I think that Mr Morrison may not be so courageous .   Whatever you do don't broadcast the segment live, so you have a chance to edit out any unintended heartless attacks that can occasionally slip in when a presenter is anxious. 

 Also , if you are chatting with Mr Morrison, remind him to say little about his father to the press.  Another former Prime Minister , Mr Bill Shorten was pilloried by the tabloids after he made a few remarks praising his deceased mother .   Sadly , we really seem to have a problem dealing with death here in the advanced nations .            

 Your comrade , Ken
