STORY INVENTED

ABC Sydney morning radio host Virginia Trioli yesterday misinformed her listeners; the Daily Telegraph’s Joe Hildebrand brings her up to speed.

  1. I have absolutely no idea why anyone thinks that the formerly OK looking and now haggardly scrag, Virginia Trioli, has any talent at all. She’s in that category of people along with Loewenstein that thinks they’re smart when the reality is they’re as thick as pig shit.

  2. Virginia Trioli?  Should be Virginia Troll.

  3. Did she make a ‘botched joke’?

  4. Serial offender is Trolly, has been for years. But then she “works” for the AB stinking C and they’re all tarred with the same brush. Lying and spinning is their trademark! But we as taxpayers pay their bills! How much longer are we going to put up with it?

  5. She’s a journalist? Or a reporter?
    Either way her ‘probing research’ has been performed without any effort.

  6. Yes, Virginia, there is fact checking.

  7. She “made it up?” Perhaps it about time she made up something further - her resignation letter.

  8. Got a splinter off the True Cross here, Ginny. Make me an offer.

  9. Descendants of criminals steal all the shortcuts.

  10. But wait, I thought desalination was good? Ahhhh, only if the ABC is reporting about it.

    I only hope that when the caliphate does arrive that I’m there to see that smug mountebank get the cumuppance she fully deserves.

  11. Triolli has listeners? Who knew?

  12. Perhaps Ms Trioli has this software:
    “A computer program that writes its own fiction with minimal human input has been developed by a Mexican researcher.”

  13. #9 Rob, Having experienced Susex street from both angles - driver and foot soldier, perhaps this route is the safest.

    Nah, just joking.

  14. Virginia, saying these kind of things will stop you getting a safe Labor seat. You don’t want to be left behind in the ABC when all your friends have a government car and a gold pass. To go over it again - Morris Iemma is the good guy, like Steve Bracks (FX: Yippee), Peter Debnam is the baddie, like Jeff Kennett (FX: boo, hiss). Don’t you remember anything from your induction to ABC Sydney?

  15. I don’t believe a single word of Joe Hildebrand’s explanation.
    We all know the difficult relationship Joe has with his best friend Darren and I believe it was Darren who tipped off The Tele about how proud the Labor Government are of their secret plans to dig up half of Sydney’s roads.

    So, Darren rings David Penberthy (editor of The Tele and Tim’s boss), puts on a weird accent (like Watergate’s Deep Throat) and talks through his hankie. He tell Penberthy how keen the Iemma Government is to leak this story and that he can have the scoop as long as he doesn’t tell Joe about it. Penberthy has reservations about this story but says he’ll run it past Virginia Trioli for verification and if she thinks it’s sound, then he will run it and a few days later Trioli can claim how The Tele is such a huge friend of The Tele and always scoops them the dirt on the really destructive stuff.

    So there Joe, I’ve blown your cover and for all we know your friend Darren has, on no less than seven occasions, asked Trioli to be the mother of his love child. I know that Darren normally isn’t that keen on leftoid moonbats but he reckons Trioli is a babe and he will make an exception in her case.

    She’s such a Lefty ‘tard that when she appeared on ABC TV’s ‘The Insiders’ recently, she was gushing about the NSW Opposition Leader, Peter Debnam, getting about in Speedos while vacationing during his election campaign ... maybe she thinks she can enthuse about Right Wing eye candy with immunity coz the Left is unbeatable?

    If Bolt were to enthuse about eye candy on the show, the PC nannies would come out of the woodwork, for sure ...

    Trioli’s behaviour must come under the ABC Pravda Style Guide as Affirmative Action, not non-PC?

  17. I know this is in bad taste but it’s kept me wondering for a while. In the middle of the AJ furore over alleged sexual preference Andrew Bolt wrote a column about how easy and scandalous it was to smear a competitor( read ABC’s book deal with Masters for Jonestown) with rumour and innuendo. As an aside he mentioned Trioli having an affair with Philip Adams to illustrate how easy reputations could be harmed. He then excused his poor Dutch/Cloggy sense of humour.

    I wondered at the time whether their was truth behind the jest.

    If there is it’s a frightening mental image.

    It must beg the question if true, just how ambitious is Trioli?
