When Hungary's Cardinal Joszef Mindszenty was arrested, tortured, tried and imprisoned, Josef Stalin's favourite Australian-born propagandist was on hand to spread the lies. Coverage of George Pell's ordeal would have done Burchett proud

What passes for debate on same-sex has been a sham. Using its media power, the SSM lobby and broader Left have howled down and suppressed the contra case. In doing so they shrink, trivialise and obscure the real issues at stake

To speak of gays' 'oppression' stretches the definition beyond farce.  By any standard -- education, income, influence, official indulgence -- gays are doing very well indeed. Bear that in mind as the plebiscite on same-sex marriage draws near and stereotypes are passed off as arguments
