Reference :- Burley Sky news host Paul Murray has attacked young Greta Thunberg again .

 Reference :-    In one of his many manly gestures , Paul Murray has berated Greta Thunberg for scaring children . 

You are right Paul.  That young Greta girl has fair put the wind up a lot of folk with her grim news about the state of the aerosphere .  How dare she . 

And to what purpose  ?   Doubtless the aerosphere is all sooted up , but why go on about it ?   We don't have to worry about it ourselves , since we will be dead long before the looming climate catastrophe hits it's stride . 

( I will probably die of terminal crankiness , though I suspect you will succumb to a coronary thrombosis if you keep stacking on the avoirdupois . )   

Contributing editor at The Sky Reply , young Monte , reckons that he is not worried about the climate either . He says that now all the plastic microparticles are becoming so small that they can cross the blood brain barrier and clog up everybody's cerebral fluids , we are as good as extinct anyway . 

 Everybody here believes he is right on the money with his gruesome prediction  , but at least he doesn't go on about it all the time . 

  Your comrade , Ken

 

 

Reference :- The World Health Organisation has produced it's report on the origin of Covid 19.

Reference :-    According to the WHO , the Chinese authorities have been most cooperative regarding their investigation into the origin of COVID 19.  

The WHO  tells us that they don't believe the dread virus was first produced in a Chinese laboratory . They say it was most likely transferred from  bats . 

But of course , one can't rely upon the WHO to tell the truth .  

In such situations , I always tune to Sky News for some informed insight .  Especially when one of their news anchors is interviewing yet another of their news anchors . What better way could there be to avoid the lies of epidemiologists,  and get to the truth ? 

On this occasion it was a grinning Paul Murray interviewing a smirking Rita Panahi .  And Rita's smirk told us all we need to know .   Apparently the entire investigation was a " whitewash " and " compromised ".  Once she informed  us of this terrible fact , it was pretty obvious to anybody ... I guess .

Anyway , after all the expense , the expert analysis , and the cooperation of the Chinese authorities , Rita laughingly told us we are " none the wiser ". 

 You would have to be batty to think otherwise . 

Which reminds me .  Sky News hasn't used alliteration in their banner headlines for a long time .  And alliteration is one of Rita's special talents  . 

Ken junior reckons she could have run a beauty for this story . 

"  Batty bogus boofheads believe baloney "  .   Not bad for the first one of the year . 

  According to Ken junior , Rita should get back into the swing with her quirky headlines . 

  " I like it when Rita's writing really rocks " , Ken junior said . 

Your comrade , Ken . 

 

 

 

Reference :- Today we decided to run a local news item .

 Reference :-   During a lull in the world news ,  The Sky Reply decided to run a story about events at the Kooralya Pub .  And the pending court case . 

Usually there is not much news to report from Kooralya . Except for the regular devastating droughts and uncontrollable infernos , not a lot happens out our way .   

Recently however , everybody in town has been talking about the dodgy barman who was sacked from the Kooralya pub .    His name is Ronald , and since he has been  whiningly out of sorts lately , we have nick-named him Ronald Grump . 

Anyway ,  here's what happened .   Ronald ran the bar for a few years.   Soon after he got the job , he started giving free beers to those he owed favors .   The publican didn't know this was happening , and Ronald kept telling him the Kooralya pub was more popular than ever , and profits were soaring .  But when the overdraft on the business account showed the opposite , the publican looked past Ronald's lies.  He then discovered the free beer racket , plus a fingers in the till racket , and the fact that Ronald hadn't been deducting his PAYE tax from his monthly wage .   Ronald was sacked on the spot .

 But Ronald needs to keep providing free beers for favors , since he owes a few hard men quite a lot of spondula ,  especially his bookie . And he is also heavily in debt to a blonde haired lady called  Cherish  who rents an upstairs room at the pub .  So Ronald decided to get the local bikies to come to the pub and force the publican to keep him on as barman . 

Things got out of hand . The bar was trashed , and the local cop ended up sustaining a broken jaw . 

 Next month there will be a court case .   Ronald says the hearing will be a farce , since he doesn't even work at the pub anymore . 

 "  They can't fire me if I don't work there anymore " ,  Ronald said . 

  The cops say that has nothing to do with being charged for provoking a civil disturbance . 

 It's all pretty exciting for a quiet little town like Kooralya ,  though obviously one would never encounter such shabby behavior in the marbled halls of global power .

 But one thing I can't understand is  .....   why has nobody  ever introduced me to Cherish ? 

Your comrade , Ken

   

Reference :- The key opinion makers at Sky News have all returned , and they are angrier than ever . .

Reference :-   To quote from The Blues Brothers ,  "the band is getting back together ". 

The good thing about the Sky News anchors is that each has a unique style , and each evaluates the news from a different perspective , free of blind ideology .   No matter who you are , you can choose a style of presentation and a viewpoint that you find appealing .

Here at The Sky Reply we have listed the key opinion makers at Sky News , and indicated their particular flair . Now you can quickly choose which presenter  you would prefer to have telling you how to think . 

Peta Credlin  ...    Angry , right wing , science denier . 

Alan Jones   ...     Belligerent , conservative , anti - intellectual .

Chris Kenny  ...    Spiteful  , old guard , troglodyte . 

Rowan Dean  ...    Enraged , obstinate , ignoramus .

 Paul Murray  ...    Irate , illiberal , philistine .  

Andrew Bolt  ...    Resentful  , tory , university drop out  . 

Rita Panahi   ...     Aggrieved , anti -leftist , lowbrow . 

With such  a diverse array of opinion makers , there is no need for anybody to look elsewhere for their daily news.  Certainly not the ABC  ( AKA   The Taxpayer Funded ABC ) .

Oh .     Ken junior just told me that we should include Mr Cory Bernardi , who has recently brought  his own special style to the hallowed studios of Sky News . 

Cory Bernadi  ...   Uptight , neo-liberal , fabian conspiracist 

 A full definition of " fabian " can be found in any edition of Funk and Wagnalls .  

According to Ken junior , the fabians  do lean a tad left . 

Your comrade , Ken .

 

Reference:- According to the recently dusted former leader of the National Party , Australia's government debt is more concerning than climate change .

Reference :-   Hyperlipidemic Sky News anchor , Paul Murray , interviewed Mr Barnaby Joyce . 

It seems  that government debt has hit 1.7 trillion quid .  That is serious money .  Mr Joyce has reminded us that we have to pay it back over the next generation . Nobody here at The Sky Reply quite understands what the rush is , especially since interest rates are lower than a snake's belly . 

Meanwhile , learned gentlemen at Melbourne University tell us that over three decades , climate change is going to cost the economy more than 2.7 trillion .  

I guess that means we had better pay back that  1.7 trillion pronto , so we only have another trillion to fork out as the planet to bakes to a cinder  . 

 The whole situation is hard to comprehend .  

Anyway , in other news ,  the other day  Monte decided that he couldn't afford to replace the timing belt on his motorbike .  He wanted to pay off his tab at the Kooralya pub first , even though they don't charge any interest . 

Sadly the belt broke , and he blew up his engine .   Now he has a full rebuild to pay for . 

 I told him to stop fretting . The way he is going on about it , you would think he had lost trillions . 

Your comrade , Ken .

 

 

 

Reference :- Dynamic duo , Peta Credlin and James Morrow discussed the percipience of poiltical interference .

Reference :-   According to Sky News anchor ,  James Morrow ,  " a sophisticated look " should be taken before we meddle in Russia's internal politics . 

Well said James .  When we interfere with the internal politics of another country we should know what we are doing . Especially if that interference involves  , as it so often does , the slaughter of thousands and a significant  investment in expensive ordnance .  

Of course , nobody is suggesting that we stir hostilities with a major nuclear power like Russia .  That would be madness .  It would be as dangerous as .... well ....  promoting a running commentary that viciously insults the Chinese Government , for example . 

Anyway James , I approve of your assumption that political interference is quite justifiable when it is our side doing it . .  After all , we are the good guys , and when we meddle  with the internal affairs of other countries  it is for their own good .  

Obviously if another nation tries to poke a busybody nose into our domestic affairs ,  we are entitled to express our outrage .   Especially if they do so without first taking , as we do ,  " a sophisticated look " at the situation .  

 Your comrade ,  Ken .

 

 

Reference :- Thinly disguised Liberal Party spokesperson , Peta Credlin of Sky News has apologised .....again . This time to former Prime Minister , Kevin Rudd .

 Reference :-  It might have been part of a defamation settlement , but how nice of Peta Credlin  to admit that she was wrong . 

Well done Peta .  That was a great apology , and I liked the way you kept both your arms fully visible  to illustrate that one wasn't being twisted behind your back .   That is your second apology in recent times , the other being the apology you made after  falsely blaming  Melbourne's South Sudanese community for spreading the deadly Covid germ . 

As we revealed in a previous post , Sky News has been wrong about practically everything for the last twelve months .   Wrong about the pandemic being a beat up . Wrong about the climate . Wrong about Trump winning the election . Wrong about Brexit being Britain's path to lost glories .  The list goes on .

Which makes me think that your research team isn't up to scratch .  In fact , perhaps you only have one person making up , I mean writing , all the news for you .  That would explain why you sound exactly like Alan Jones .    ( A more masculine version of Alan Jones , of course , and I say that as a tribute . ) 

Anyway Peta , don't be discouraged . The untruth you told about Kevin Rudd using his petition as a data harvesting scheme was not very bad in the scheme of things .  The trouble is , Kevin has the cash to pony up for a lawsuit . You can always  abuse  and vilify those of modest means with impunity , but you should fight shy of folk who can afford a team of credible pettifoggers .

One last thing .  When you apologized to the South Sudanese last year  , you didn't quite manage to look remorseful .  This apology was much better in that regard .  You didn't look very happy at all , which would have appealed to the many in your audience with a taste for schadenfreude . 

Stay chipper , we have a long year ahead . 

Your comrade , Ken
