TV host rips into the ABC for likening Tony Abbott to a ‘white nationalist’
Sky News host James Morrow named broadcaster Daniel James his “wally of the week,” criticising him for likening former prime minister Tony Abbott to a white nationalist and accusing the ABC of framing multiculturalism debates as moral judgments. “It was the ABC; I dont think I’m surprised that they would broadcast this, but a far-left journalist by the name of Daniel James has likened former prime minister Tony Abbott to a white nationalist," Mr Morrow said. “Pearl-clutching there from the ABC. “They are really working so hard over time to quarantine these discussions around multiculturalism … as a moral thing that if you don't agree with us … you are a bad person.”
