Another drunk journo via australiatalks.com.au

[brokenscimitar]

Paul Keating wonderfully called the aggressive little shit, Glenn Milne, "That poisonous dwarf." How apt.

[heatseeker64]

Hahahahahaha ... "When hobbits attack". I've heard of dwarf tossing in Queensland pubs, but I suppose in Victoria it's the dwarves that do the tossing - I suppose that's payback of some kind!

[nowendoc7]

I don't personally know either of these blokes, but these situations usually only occur when the both people are fuckwits. That's just what I've found anyway.

[garnita0]

man, thats so shit...all mayne had to do was bring the knee up and smash this "poison dwarfs" balls or head butted him in the face..

how could u run away from this guy?

[noodleboy78]

Remember folks, this retard has "never visited a strip club" but he can do this sort of outburst and not lose his job??

[trublood06]

If i ruled the earth

id sale ships in the until sundown

then id return

return to walk these streets alone

By day i hear the serpants calling me

[oI0Io]

Why's the shit flying so thick around here? :|

I just thought it was funny.

[88odinicrites]

I remember this when it was screened on TV - I couldn't stop laughing. Anyone else remember Normie Rowe and Ronnie Casey? Old man belts young whelp? Oh, just me... I loved it. Silly pesudo-journalist Mayne looked about to cry when he popped his head back up.

[thejobloshow]

If he called me a disgrace I would of said "That's not what your wife said." I'm so lame.

[spiwatch]

Mayne (the guy pushed off the stage) is a total scum...it is just a pity he didn't die when he was pushed off the stage...

[Staggerlee69]

We're glad we (men) invented computers, the internet and Youtube for your edification and amusement orthodox!

[XLeonXX]

this is not how you make videos!

[aGAYthing]

Men of the world take note: All the world's true machismo and certifiable male virility is currently under threat by lesbians like orthodox who would prefer that all men be forced to be eunuchs like Stevie 'oh i sprained my ankle' Mayne

[orthotox]

Typical depressing Youtuber exchange. Women of the world take note: all the world's true machismo and certifiable male virility is currently on display in your dayly Youtube comment section for your edification and amusement! Enjoy!

[nolomorte]

Mayne is a softcock disgrace to journalism. And PunkRingOfHonorX still lives with his mum, he's 30 and she still washes his clothes.

[Staggerlee69]

Mayne gets his notoriety from posting unsubstantiated rumors and innuendo about people on his website. Milne may have been drunk but he showed him up to be the pussy he is.

[grazie55555]

hahaha oh and Glen Milne is really one to discuss journalistic integrity? The guy is scum. At least main admits his articles are based on rumour and inuendo. Milne presents his as fact!

[Staggerlee69]

crikey.com.AU

[nabiji]

When i saw this for the first time i thought it was staged ... i guess not ...

Gotta love that comment thought 'Sponsored by Fosters' ... indeed a classic

[PunkRingOfHonorX]

What a fucking pussy. Not only does he bitch off stage, but he raises his arms like he's accomplished something by walking away from a fight with someone who's half his size...AND DRUNK.

Proud Italian. Australians = All fucking yobbo drunk pussy's.

[kitwalker2006]

You've got nothing to be proud of with a comment like that.

[jack24b]

Hahaha...what's this...another third gen immigrant who thinks he's Italian? Try your luck in Italy...they'll treat you like a fucking foreigner.

[Rooshla]

ahhh i luv being aussie

[otakursed]

freakin' idjit . . . just like Fox News, a drunken bully. Though the network's just intoxicated with power>_<

[klinski123]

....

[illicitstill]

"Sponsored by Fosters" - classic.

Aussies, gotta luv em.

[zbs414]

I'm not much into sophistocated high brow: I did enjoy that little novelty however. You have to love a black tie.

[stewart0312]

The drunken hobbit works for Murdoch, and therefore shares the same half a brain as those bastards at Fox News.

[issy313]

I hope Milne gets an invite to the Logies

[eclipse10]

ah typical aussie. stupid cunts!

[JamesPecker]

watever wu tang

[superheronumber1]

Dickhead, he got pWned and still thinks he is so great, gets up on stage fists in the air, yet he ran away from the primitive austrialian brute.

[MollyVonSchtupp]

I miss the old days of award shows and everyone was drunk as hell. Sigh! Nice to see it back again. Everyone is so anal these days. Screw it. Get sloshed! What the hell! Go Aussie's go!

[omgWTFn00b]

shut up all the racists and haters.

[adoptapitbull]

an american journalist would have broken the guys jaw.

[not4resale]

hahahaha that dumb bloke got dropped.

[JazzHill]

This really shows how low journalists are. This drunk guy tries to attack him and they all start laughing and clapping, whilst the guy who was being attacked laughs from about 10 metres away. What a coward. He wouldn't have the guts to say any of those smartarse comments if the guy wasn't being restrained.

[jackben1]

He would have the guts actually. He's one of the most outspoken journalists in Australia who risked his home and future to start an independent news outlet.

[robbbie85]

Lol at the standard aussie behaviour comment.

[KcehcYtilaer]

Next time have the footage instead of being a cheap ass and recording it off your TV.

[favian]

moron, if he/she doesnt have the ability to rip video, what other option does he/she have? yeah i'm sure they're going to run to the store and buy a video capture board for their computer to PLEASE YOU, stfu.

some people always find reasons to bitch like women. better to have it up like this than to not have it at all.

[pizt]

who would want to attend this event?

[glennid10t]

Looks like they need to increase security at these types of award shows. wtf, kanye west, faith hill?

wasn't Milne involved in a drunken incident on tv before?

[fishhead06]

Isn't this standard Aussie behaviour?

[bigbowlowrong]

LO....L?

[kitwalker2006]

Get up on stage and find out :-)

[Tewbacca]

Pure Gold. Milne is a wanker - lost he credibility and gave us all a laugh.

[Gunn3r14]

A pissed journalist? Who would've thought!

[issy313]

Sir John Kerr's love child? He looks like him.

[merchant22]

Kerr's lovechild ! Love it!

[issy313]

Milne and Danny De Vito should share notes

[lonelygirlI5]

lol

[issy313]

A post from Lonelygirl, now he's famous! I'm a News D in A, want to do my weather?

[inlondonnow]

If your news reporting is as accurate as your spotting of a fake lonelygirl account, I'd love to watch your channel.

[issy313]

Yea, but she pulls more viewers than Aussie network..and that's what it is about. Actually all posts on this subject (and this is but one of 6) have had more hits than News Ltd circulation.

[egansroad]

If Milne has said thathe was pissed OK, However to blame his medication, what a wanker

[merchant22]

Medicine - the last refuge of the scoundrel

[genghis6199]

yeh it's not beyonce or a wii ad.

you americans are obsessed with your own television.

[divinci69]

haha great comment

[suchombo]

Why are News Ltd journos even allowed at The Walkleys? Aren't they awarding prizes for excellence?

And isn't the Media, Entertainment & Arts Alliance - a union - supporting these awards? News Ltd hates unions!

Notice how Anton just stood there at the far left!

Instant Classic.

[camelfeet]

Both deadshits.

[silverandblack68]

what a flyweight to get pushed off the stage so easy by an old dude. Should have let him go beat the fruit.LMAO

[genghis6199]

he wasn't looking. just like you're not thinking right now.

[xxxMicrobexxx]

They say an employee is the public face of their employer...

[MrNiceHk]

A room full of self appreciating aussie jornos .. Christ there is a hell ..

[tausyankee]

Milne must have misread his invite -- thought it said "Black Shirt" rather than "Black Tie"!

Imagine if Bob Brown behaved like that -- wonder what the Daily Tele and Limited News would say??

[DRuGNikT]

Congrats to Glenn Milne.

How do you feel, Mayne -- takes two years of winding up a professional to get any kind of recognition in the industry.... Just imagine if you diverted some of that wasted energy into actual journalism, rather than tyre-kicking and re-hashing others' stories..

For those unaware, Mayne has been winding Milne up since 2005, on a personal vendetta that could easily be summarised as misguided energy - try reporting real stories, rather than crapping on all Milne's work?

[gor0355]

Milne was caught out for the drunken little sod that he is, a Murdoch stooge.

[JaalaJ]

If a big guy like Milne came running after me like that I'd be running away, too! Instant classic.

[brendonblackwell]

Milne is just another Murdoch pawn. He wouldn't know real journalism if jumped up on stage drunk and attacked him. Crikey, I nominate him for the friday f*ckwit.

[SBaneLight]

classic.

[qlder]

I can't believe how a high-profile journo such as Milne would become that intoxicated at an event like that...

Good on you Mayne, for being sensible, and not drinking too much!!!

[dandharma]

Migraine medication my arse! Milne is an angry little dwarf with a inflated ego and little self esteem.

But don't be suprised if he is promoted after this indiscretion. It's a Brave New Australia

[bangitup]

Just too funny - yep can see this getting more Youtube views today than a Paris Hilton video!

Sort of reminds me of a building site dispute resolution.

But seriously, special congrats to "Fosters", News and the Crikey crew for this perfect online PR campaign (now if I can get the name of the PR company?).

Hope subs go through the roof.

Keep up the good work.

[rekem1000]

champaigne comedy

[hrv1999]

Hasn't Glen Milne got FAT.

[abrarose]

Glen Milne is an ASS

[adhsmith]

haha classic!

[killerspudly]

Glen Milne is a pompus arse. He thinks that because he is a journalist in the populist press that he is a king maker and can influence public opinion. He blatantly supports the conservative side of politics and more recently sees himself as an advocate for Peter Costello's bid for PM. I hope this incident ends this political partisans "journalist" career. He is a hack. May he go on to form his only conservative "think tank" (or should that be drink tank)

[artymoose]

Assault resulting in an ankle injury. Smells like litigation. Mayne's looking at recouping some of the dosh he lost on those defo payouts.

[twofatbastards]

Another chicken shit response by Mayne. See him jump off the stage like a coward? The man is a disgrace. he deals in gutter rumour and innuendo.

He is certainly not a journo.

Good on you Milne.

[Roge56]

As the video shows, Mayne did not "jump off the stage" - he was clearly pushed by a drunken Milne. And if Mayne "is certainly not a journo", then how did he come to win a Walkely Award himself a few years ago? twofatbastards, your political bias is showing.

[kitwalker2006]

He was initially pushed then tried to get back on stage. When he saw Milne coming at him again he lept off the stage.

[feet77]

Oh yeah, assaulting a man on national television is so much better than gutter journalism. You're a bloody moron just like Milne.

[stewart0312]

Yeah, only a real brave man would take on a drunken Bilbo Baggins like Milne.

[jonkvh]

Goes to show how you can be a protected species under the employ of the 'Sun Kink'. Rupert obviously isn't concerned about journo's and the term 'human relations' not being used in the same sentence, or for that matter 'life skills' as part of an appropiate description for NEWS Corp' hacks.

[jamiecrick]

Sensational stuff. What a great country this is.

[craigbellamy]

This is sort of funny. Steven Mayne can be a bit of a wanker; but still to try and push him off stage when he is accepting an award is a little too much. Even I wouldn't do that. I would wait until later and get him in the car park! I hope the other bloke doesn't get into trouble because this is exactly the type of behaviour that Steven Mayne has built his career upon. We remember the Victorian Sate election of 1999 dear Steven.

[buffettz]

No wonder Stephen Mayne is rubbing his hands together! Go Crikey!

[AndrewMelb]

You gotta love free publicity!

[gths2006]

alcohol and awards nights, heh

[87sprintqf]

ahah classic.. good comback by mayne. i wish he punched his drunk ass

[znotty]

can you imagine the News limited headline if he had ?

[bendiviolet]

I notice the news limited sites are very quiet on this this morning...

[AndrewMelb]

What a disgrace Glenn Milne is. Obviously another case of a grossly over-inflated ego feeding off an alcohol induced delusion of grandeur.

burtom, you sir, are a genius.
