The Australian Communications and Media Authority foolishly allowed itself to be used as a vehicle for Ambassador to the US Kevin Rudd’s “vindictive crusade,” according to Sky News host Andrew Bolt.
Mr Bolt’s remarks come after the ACMA rejected 72 of the former prime minister’s 80 complaints about ten episodes of Sky News Australia’s Outsiders program, which were broadcast between October and December 2021.
Mr Bolt provided two examples of the mistakes found by the ACMA, which Sky News host Rowan Dean made during his ‘Ice Age Watch’ segment on Outsiders that justify the “witchhunt”. “Global warming is grossly exaggerated … and one of the worst panic merchants, of course, has been Kevin Rudd and shame now on ACMA for letting Kevin Rudd use that authority for his vendetta against us for pointing this out,” he said.
