Yeah , well lets not hold back on Judging the majority of Aussies who agree with him eh?
The ignorant are those who see the minority interests gnaw away at Australian Society, and purr on about Anti Racial laws are benefitting Australia.
The agenda of the Muslims/Jews...in every western nation appears to be one of self interested manipulation of Tolerant Australian Peoples.
Iam genuinely saddened that this intelligent thread has been hijacked by racist anti aboriginal posts.
It is as if any pertinent earnest thread that asks the very big questions becomes the target for infantile moronic responses, that ignore the crux of the OPs post.
There will be many on ATS who will see the point the OP is making, but be put off by the derailing posts that have plagued this thread.
Such is life , and nothing I can do about it, but continue to be earnest.

Below is a mainstream opinion on the issue
www.abc.net.au...
Basically for those outside Australia this respected, forthright, earnest Journalist has been found gulity under Australian Anti Racism Laws for what appears to be exposes on the practice of white Australians claiming Aboriginal race status for gain,
It is a sad day when the truth cannot be commented upon and thata lone judge can gag the media?
Some so called Aboriginies in Australia appear as white as any Anglo saxon , some even have red hair, they appear to deny the 90% of their Anglo?irish heritage and concentrate on the purported 10% or so Aboriginal heritage?
Here is another opinion on the matter

Here is another interesting report on the trial according to this link

The following report from NewsOnABC claims that Bolt lost his case because his articles used the Internet as a research tool, and they thus contained mistaken information. For example, he said one lady (whom he labelled a "political aborigine") was as German looking as her father, when her father was in fact half English and half aboriginal.

Australia is one of the oldest nations in the world. The Aboriginals may have some origins from Africa but they also have origins from Russia and India.
It is alleged the Aborginal people have been here for 40,000+ years. Rubbish! At most it would be 15,000 years.

Interesting topic, especially for us in SA where the benefits of affirmative action are applied according to a complex variety of "blackness" based on the degree of "disadvantage" under the previous apartheid laws (and black now also includes the local Chinese who were previously classed as coloreds), and some people previously classed as "coloreds" now identify themselves as indigenous Khoisan. Depending how "blackness" is defined many "white" Afrikaners could also identify as coloreds. Some argue we should all identify as black in the coming census to stop the racial classifications once and for all.

As for Bolt himself, and the case at hand, i could pose this question:
Did Derryn Hinch have a right to defy the courts suppression orders by naming sex offenders?
