The % of words, by person, more than shows up the bias and disproportionate air time given to Penny Wong:<br />Wong: 42.5% (3109 words)<br />Hunt: 18.21% (1332 words)<br />Kenny: 14.83% (1085 words)<br />Innes: 14.28% (1045 words)<br />Price: 10.18% (745 words)<br /><br />So Wong had 42.5% of air time, and if you take Wong & Hunt in isolation (as the 2 politicians on the panel), Wong had 70.01% of the share, as opposed to Hunt's 29.9%, a completely unbalanced representation, as manipulated by Tony Jones. My estimation of her having 30% more words than Hunt was wrong: she had 40% more in a one-on-one basis.Arthur McArthurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04492382720175353862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5558525618273074200.post-55562403293005511902011-04-11T06:43:14.631-07:002011-04-11T06:43:14.631-07:00And for what it's worth, I will do a word coun...And for what it's worth, I will do a word count once tonight's QandA transcript becomes available and will lodge the results here.<br />I'd estimate Wong spoke 30% more words than Hunt tonight, as Jones repeatedly cut him off and allowed her to keep prattling on.<br />Stay tuned for the word count!Arthur McArthurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04492382720175353862noreply@blogger.com
