Reference :- Is Sky News genuinely losing it's mojo ?

 Reference :-   We might be witnessing the decline of Sky News . Or is it just the impact of the holiday season ? 

Dear troubled Sky News team , 

What to do , what to do ?   Young Rowan Dean has stopped banging on about the coming ice age . Alan Jones has been sacked . Andrew Bolt has had nothing of interest to say in weeks.  Chris Kenny's reports  have become so puerile that even his long term followers are turning away in droves .  And Peta Credlin spends much of her time carefully writing and presenting  her apologies for spreading harmful misinformation . 

This is not the Sky News for which we once wrote our " fuller appreciations " , and the lads here at The Sky Reply are feeling pretty frustrated .   Sky News has even lost it's enthusiasm for supporting the coalition , despite the looming election .  

Ken junior tells me not to despair .   For starters he reckons he could see the defiance simmering beneath the surface of Peta Credlin's forced apology , so she is far from being a spent force .  She might miss her interviews with Jonesie , but then again she won't have to deal with his frequent cringeworthy suggestions that she become Prime Minister .  He also reckons that a country somewhere or other is bound to experience unseasonal blizzards before long , which will give Rowan Dean some material he can whip into another trademark " Ice Age Watch " .  

 Well, it's nice of Ken junior to be optimistic , but I fear that the Sky News hosts have lost their team spirit and have no direction . What is needed is a common cause . Clearly it is no longer wise for Sky News to focus on spreading misinformation about climate change and immigrants and  renewable energy and the pandemic and the economy and assorted individuals and ... ...well you get my drift .   You have been shut down or faced legal action too many times over such matters .   Furthermore  the " can do "  business community ( refreshed as it is by taxpayer funds )  is starting to reconsider it's position on many crucial issues , and you risk biting the hand that feeds you if you stick to your tired old narratives . 

But look .  Sky News may be suffering a disaster at the moment , but as they say , every disaster is an opportunity , so this must be a very big opportunity indeed .    Our team here has been working on a few ideas you could run with in the New Year . An election is looming , and according to the polls , Mr Morrison is currently stuck  in second place . Imagine how proud you would be if you could convince the great unwashed to vote for him again and hand him a win ?  

 It's a goal worthy of the Sky News team of old , but how to do it ? 

More to follow . 

Your comrade , Ken
