Rupert Murdoch and his Fox News Channel know no bounds as is evident by comments made by Peter Dutton Fox News presenter masquerading as Australia's Immigration Minister. Being a puppet of Roger Ailes can at times, be both rewarding when pandering to racists and nativists and painful when you stupidly forget that you're supposed to be part of government. Perhaps Mr. Dutton should pay attention to the morning propaganda emails sent to him by his overlords at Fox News and stop articulating his inherent ignorance and blatant stupidity.
The immigration minister, Peter Dutton, has blamed refugee advocates for the suicide attempts on Nauru and Manus, alleging they are encouraging detainees to self-harm in the hope of getting to Australia.
A second refugee, Hodan Yasi, self-immolated on Nauru overnight and is in a Brisbane hospital in a critical condition.
Pressed on his allegation, Dutton offered no examples of refugee supporters advocating acts of self-harm, but said his office received “advice” and “intelligence” that it was occurring.
“There is a lot of publicly available information in relation to some of the social media messaging as well,” he said.
