FOUR CORNERS' FROM JOURNALISM TO POLITICAL ACTIVISM.

FOUR CORNERS; 

FROM JOURNALISM TO POLITICAL ACTIVISM.

I had always been a big fan of the ABC'S 4 CORNERS programme. To me it was the best show on TV because it was always interesting, factual, and honest; as far as I knew. In my twenties I was extraordinarily ignorant of politics so I used the ABC as a way to slowly learn who the characters were and how they fitted into the political system.

Last week I watched an episode of 4 CORNERS about three complete losers spending the night drinking and fucking on Iluka beach in 2011; and one of them was dead the next morning.

SARAH FERGUSON, one of the ABC Matriarchs, introduced the episode by asking "How is it possible the perpetrators have not been held to account?

The story then begins with a re-enactment by a blurred figure on a beach trying to resuscitate someone. The voice-over, complete with sub-titles, begins with a distraught man calling an ambulance. His voice and speech say a lot about him but the focus is on him calling the dead woman a bitch.

The narrator has already created a sinister atmosphere when she describes the woman's body;

"There appeared to be bite marks on her breasts and buttocks". It is already obvious that the program has been designed to give one impression, that the dead woman was the victim of the two evil males.

One of the drunken losers drives down the beach to get help from a fisherman who returns with him to the scene.

"Were you suspicious?" the narrator asks. "Yeah Probably, yeah for sure". he fisherman replies.

The camera zooms in on what appears to be a large blood clot on the sand. The words, "Blood from the vagina." are heard.

"It was a wild sex session. That's what they were there for. Throughout the night." a police officer says.

The narrator focuses on the sheet-covered corpse on the beach which is described correctly as "the cold hard sand". She tells us that the 33 year-old woman, a mother of 7, has bled to death following a "violent" sex act. The phrase "bled out internally" is used although the "bite marks" and "bled to death" statements are merely conjecture. Later in the programme the official coroner's report reveals that she had a potentially lethal blood alcohol level of 0.352 but tat fact is ignored.

The viewer is then taken to the home of the woman's mother and step-father. "She was outnumbered" they tell us. Although there's no way you could tell any of the people identified as aborigines but there is an aboriginal flag on the wall behind her.

Next we get a description of the men. The dead woman's 37 year-old boyfriend; unemployed, alcoholic, living with his parents.

The other man, 41 years old, unemployed, living in a caravan park, a drug user with a record for assault.

We are then told that despite a thorough investigation, a coronial inquest & twice being referred to the NSW Public Prosecutions her drinking buddies had never been prosecuted.

Next is a short biography of the woman. Born in Maclean, close to where she died. A a real local.

A "generous, trusting girl who loved sport". She was "good at everything". "Always the champion". She could have been Olympic athlete. She was "another Cathy Freeman" we are assured.

But at 15 she fell into wrong crowd. Was pregnant for the first time at 16.

"She had to find out things the hard way." the step-father tells us. "She had a series of violent relationships awash in drugs & alcohol...she always had bruises everywhere" he continues, "Her spirit was broken by bashings. Maybe that's why she drank; so she didn't feel the beatings", he surmises.

"We tried everything." her mother tells us.

Her sister Tina is next to tell us how she witnessed her decline. "It was devastating." she tells us.

By the age of 30 the woman had seven children, all in the care of the grandparents, But we are assured that she was "Always a good person."

For an unexplained reason the woman was homeless. It is difficult not to notice the hefty gold chain around the stepfather's neck and the shiny new SUV in the driveway, but for one reason or another the daughter who was always a good person had resorted to living in a one-man tent in the bush behind the aboriginal mission. They show the small tent in the bush surrounded by rubbish, "She'd hit rock bottom", we are told by the mother, "She fell into the hands of those men she drank with in the local park where she spent her days."

A couple of times the men are referred to as predators although why they were considered predators is not explained. Several times the genial, co-operative nature of the relationship was mentioned. They mention the last time they saw her alive.

"I'm going now" she'd said. Obviously leaving of her free will, but the 4 Corners crew try to dress it up by saying she was in distress. They say the boyfriend was swearing abuse even though by this time we know it was their normal way of speaking. "Hurry the fuck up" we hear to the sound of dramatic music.

"She was driven out of town, bound for an overnight trip." we are told. "They drank heavily throughout the day, returning to town for more supplies".

Witnesses tell us "She was off her face", "scruffy, dirty, staggering". The guy was "playing with sausage". He was simulating "humping". "He pulled her pants down", we are told.,

The narrator tells us "They listened to music, kept drinking through the night, no evidence they did any fishing."

"Darkness descended, her last night alive", accompanied by more more ghost music. and more aborigine images.

After being told the men we wearing "no shoes, no shirts" they start talking about the investigation into how the woman died.

It is established that the three of them were having drunken sex which included fisting? A sexual practice which apparently involves inserting the entire fist into the vagina or the anus for homosexual men. Why anyone would want to do that I don't know but it is not illegal.

"Girls will be girls. Boys will be boys." one of the male losers tells us.

"She consented, she was enjoying it" the other guy tells us.

There is nothing to indicate that the sex was not consensual and all three were obviously totally drunk.

The official coroner's report says she had a blood alcohol level of 0.352, "a potentially lethal range". "She may have been in a stuporous state, possibly unconscious." we are told.

Next the 4 CORNERS vigilantes switch to an academic from UTS, an associate law professor who contradicts herself by saying "she may not have been fully conscious" and then follows it up by saying "that is very clearly a case of sexual assault when the person is not conscious". 

The witch-hunt continues with Marcia Langton and various other powerful females putting pressure on the authorities to find the two losers guilty of manslaughter even though we have already been told that there has already been a thorough investigation, a coronial inquest & twice being referred to the NSW Public Prosecuter.

To focus sympathy on the deceased alcoholic women who'd drank enough alcohol to kill her after spending the day and night having consensual sex with her drinking buddies the 4 CORNERS' activists  take the entire family to the beach and when a Brahminy Kite appears the narrator goes into fantasy mode when sister Tina 'explains', "That eagle is her. Every time we come here it lands in that tree......." We are told again what a beautiful, loving, sister and mother the dead woman was, and what efforts are being made to put the two male losers in jail.

It is a very sad story but I've known a lot of people like them. They are drunks because they have nothing to live for. Dying doesn't really matter when you are that low anyway. Whether she died because of the rough sex or the lethal dose of alcohol she'd consumed who knows but it is the vigilante style of the 'reporting' that frightens me.

Not only does the feminist-mafia style bend the truth and show complete contempt for the legal system but they deploy their venomous hatred within a package of acceptable outrage.

Would 4 corners ever 'investigate' an aboriginal woman killed by aborigines, or a woman who murdered children?

SIX YEARS LATER;

The boyfriend of the dead woman has been sentenced to 19 years in gaol and the other man 9 years as a direct result of the 4 CORNERS  vigilante journalism, despite the fact that The NSW Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) twice declined to prosecute due to lack of evidence.

In 2011, the 'boyfriend' was charged with manslaughter over her death, and the other man was charged with being an accessory, but the charges were later dropped.

Again in 2014, coroner Michael Barnes recommended charges be laid but the DPP would not prosecute because there was insufficient evidence of wrong-doing.

The legal system had done its job. The woman was obviously there of her own free will, drank enough to cause her own death while participating in consensual sex during a long drinking session, but, utilising the power of the Feminist mafia the legal system was over-ridden and the two losers sent to gaol. And to top it off the Public Prosecutor was forced to apologise.

Over time the situation on the beach was completely rewritten to demonise the "rapists" and the woman was re-invented as an innocent victim. Feminism has destroyed all of our institutions.
