Could we create some new renewable energy source powered by perpetual outrage if Perth now picks up this thread, which is then covered on media watch and then posted again to Reddit ad infinitum.
I agree!
I don’t think people should copy content and present it as their own. Situations such as these occur when people copy content and present it as their own without cosidering the consequences.

Peter has a real fascination with this subreddit lmao
Met him in real life a few times during the Snoz for breakfast stages and he seemed to be the sane one. He genuinely is ok to have people point things out where they need to be, at the same time seen the coworker at the time just flap his gums and get out of the office quick smart.
Fuck yes. Over at /r/Melbourne we've been getting the same treatment from news.com.au and ppl have been doing "fuck Murdoch" watermarks in response. Maybe you should do similar? The hell with this lazy hack journalism.
When’s the last time you actually watched MW on a regular basis?
You genuinely have no idea just how many times a year it properly bites the hand that feeds it.
Perth Now in a few hours: "Redditors in hysterics after "ABC Media Watch: PerthNow left red-faced after ripping off a prank Reddit post" gets posted"
It's Perth Now all the way down
…to the gutter.
u/trey_tallent, u/crablegs_aus, u/iball1984, u/lame-o-potato got a shoutout
I stand by my comment
And so you should
The rest of us are just hacks not worth quoting. How rude!!

In this household, we obey the laws of physics!

D’oh!
Don't plagiarise kids. This is what happens when you plagiarise blindly.
I'm all for plagiarising kids, they deserve it

Got a good laugh out of that one. Well done mediawatch.
Get rekt PerthNow. Lazy and pathetic.
Im liking the idea of a "Media Watch PerthNow watch Reddit Watch."
"A flashlight you take to the beach"... where'd they find this guy?
That’s journalism these days…
Now I have the giggles, this is fucking hilarious.
Watched this about ten minutes ago and was literally crying with laughter- greatest day of my life
That 6PR one isn’t too bad, just a guy that got trolled
Lesson learned? Probably not.
The weirdest bit is, we literally discussed fucking with them. And they did it anyway? That's an IQ issue IMO. What a dick.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA😂😂😂😂 Good work r/Perth 👍

Media Watch: how cutting can your dry sarcasm be before the cops declare it a dangerous weapon? A decades-long experimental investigation.
Life immitates art. /s
Absolute fucking hacks. ***"You won't believe what this Reddit user said about us! Click here to read the story!"***
LMAO
That Millsy bit is amazing, I was laughing my arse off.

Real posts need to be watermarked with "Fuck PerthNow" and then we need at least one outrageous fake post per day to bait them.
Imagine the fun we could have on April fools day lol
If PerthNow is all about owning its mistakes, like Peter Devlin claims, why do they let it continue to exist? Clearly they aren't true to their word.
PerthNow hates this one simple trick.
Thanks media watch
That’s gold, nice to see them getting called out.
Coming here from the Media Watch video on Youtube. News.com.au does the same thing constantly to us over at r/Sydney
We have a running tally of which threads on r/Brisbane will end up on Courier Mail (News Corp) or BrisbaneTimes.com (Nine Fairfax).
Surely this series of posts has got to make the best of the year list.
That Devlin bloke what a fuckwit they showed his pic and everything ROFL
Private school vibes. Connections not talent
Yes!
Just the laugh I needed
On my small phone the photo of the parking meter looks like there's a dick in the front of it too. Hahaha This is brilliant.
Great success! Do we think Perthnow will learn their lesson?
I needed a giggle today.
Yeah, not exactly a great look for the Murdoch cumrag calling itself PerthNow.
Isn't perthnow owned by 7west media a.k.a Kerry Stokes?
Its owned by The Sunday Times, which in turn is owned by 7West
Hahah. Brilliant.
Someones gotta be a graduate of murdoch journalism school. It's the only uni where they teach phone tapping.
I bet I know what Millsy will get for his secret Santa gift this year.
Fuck yes. Over at /r/Melbourne we've been getting the same treatment from news.com.au and ppl have been doing "fuck Murdoch" watermarks in response. Maybe you should do similar? The hell with this lazy hack journalism.

If only media watch had the same level of scrutiny for the rest of the ABC
When’s the last time you actually watched MW on a regular basis? You genuinely have no idea just how many times a year it properly bites the hand that feeds it.
God. So good! I'd forgotten about Media Watch. Makes me want to watch it again.
That's made my morning
Makes you wonder if they actually have a degree in journalism or if they just found it in a wheatees packet
This is great
This is phenomemal, absolutely made my day!
Great work redditors!
Is "content creation" some journalist's excuse for spending too much time on Reddit?
Can I please be in the screenshot for the rebuttal?
Omg 🤣🤣🤣
Where is the og prank?
