How low can Germain Greer go to get attention?

Question

Couldn't believe that the press would give her exposure, but obviously they have no common decency either.Your comments, please.

Oh, don't get me wrong. The media will grovel to ANY depth to get attention. That I already know.

Answer 1

Obviously as low as she could making those comment about Steve Irwin, Can't wait till see that old hag hit the bucket,
She shouldn't be allowed back in Australia.
Some feminist she is making comments like that ,

Didn't she think of his children bindi and bob ?!
Or his wife or father of mother in law..
This women is sick, if you find her email addres or mailing address let me know..she will be getting a mouthful.. Aussie style.

Answer 2

If you and others continue to bring it up, then it just continues to fuel the fire of this issue. I think that is what you desire. She has a right (just as you little teens on Yahoo do) to speak her mind. We let YOU speak yours and thus, YOU and the press need to afford her the same in return. However, this whole issue and the Irwin things has literally been talked into the ground. Peace to Irwin's family and now it's time to get back to life and move on.

Answer 3

As this women is an attention seeker she says things that is the opposite to what every body else she is the cruel one as Steve's wife and children would have heard this. She is a cold old fart that has nothing else better to do with her self.

Answer 4

This is the same press that gives Paris Hilton headlines. Don't blame either, blame the media.

Greer draws anger over Irwin comments

Angry Australian leaders have told Germaine Greer to "put a sock in it" after the feminist said the animal world had finally taken revenge on Steve Irwin.

In an article in British newspaper The Guardian following Mr Irwin's sudden death, Ms Greer said she had "not much sympathy" for Mr Irwin if he was grappling with the stingray that killed him on the Great Barrier Reef.

Mr Irwin was fatally stabbed in the heart by a stingray's barb while snorkelling off Port Douglas in far north Queensland on Monday.

His death prompted worldwide mourning for the man known as the Crocodile Hunter.

Labor foreign affairs spokesman Kevin Rudd said Ms Greer should keep her thoughts about Mr Irwin's death to herself.

"I think Germaine Greer should just stick a sock in it," he told reporters in Canberra.

"You have got a grieving mother, you have got a couple of grieving young kids and a grieving nation and what do you get from Germaine Greer? You get a bucket load of politically correct pap - it's just nonsense.

"Steve Irwin was a nature conservationist, an animal conservationist and made a huge contribution to the preservation of wildlife worldwide.

"And what do we get from Germaine Greer? Some gratuitous, politically correct claptrap."

The comments also angered Queensland Premier Peter Beattie, who described them as "outrageous".

"That's just nonsense," Mr Beattie said.

"That is just garbage and it is insensitive, crazy and untrue."

Those on the boat with Mr Irwin say he was not in any way harassing the stingray when it lashed out at him as he swam above it.

But The Guardian quoted Ms Greer as saying: "As a Melbourne boy, Irwin should have had a healthy respect for stingrays, which are actually commoner and bigger in southern waters than they are near Port Douglas."

She described Irwin's behaviour as "bizarre", noting the famed incident when he held his baby son while feeding a crocodile during a show at his Australia Zoo on the Sunshine Coast.

"The whole spectacle was revolting," Ms Greer said.

"The crocodile would rather have been anywhere else and the chicken had a grim life too, but that's entertainment at Australia Zoo.

"The animal world has finally taken its revenge on Irwin, but probably not before a whole generation of kids in shorts seven sizes too small has learned to shout in the ears of animals with hearing ten times more acute than theirs, determined to become millionaire animal-loving zoo owners in their turn."

American magazine Steppin' Out - which describes itself as the number one entertainment magazine in New York and New Jersey - was much more barbed in its criticism of Mr Irwin, labelling him "deceased asshole of the week".

"So while Australians mourn the loss of their beloved wildlife warrior, today the animal kingdom breaths a sign of relief and toasts to more peaceful times ahead," gossip writer Chaunce Hayden wrote.


i would like to take her snorkeling someday some
