This week’s much coveted Wankley goes to News.com.au for allowing racist Muslim bashing comments on their “news” website.
Who are these neanderthals who awake from dreams of a “White Australia” at 2:45am to post their vile views? Surely they couldn’t (gasp!) be foreigners?!
Put a fork in them, the election is almost done.

News.com.au “welcome your comments” which are moderated and possibly edited before publication. This comment wasn’t published by their oh so sensitive moderator:
News.com.au’s moderator must have learned from News Limited’s master of such racist rabble rousing.
Expect more from your journalism.

I concur with your views on this subject. But, people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. How about you review a couple of the comments to Crikey a few days ago on the subject of the proposed Muslim school on the Gold Coast, they were on a par with this, from memory they were submitted by “Justy” and “Katie”.
