‘You don't stand for anything': Albanese torched for dodging Taiwan conflict questions
GT Communications' Gemma Tognini questions whether Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will discuss Taiwan whilst on his six-day visit to China. 'It's not possible to lead from a moral perspective when you actually don't stand for anything, and I don't say that to be trite, I genuinely don't,' Ms Tognini said. 'Is he going to talk to the Chinese government about its intentions toward Taiwan? 'It seems to me that the prime minister has this ceiling that he just is not capable of rising through from a leadership perspective.'

‘Absolute disgrace': Jake Tapper writes book on Joe Biden's declining health
GT Communications' Gemma Tognini says it is an 'absolute disgrace' for CNN host Jake Tapper to write a book about former US president Joe Biden's decision to run for re-election. Ms Tognini claims the authors committed a 'terrible offence to the American Voter'. 'Because their job as journalists … is to report the truth without fear of favour,' Ms Tognini told Sky News host Chris Kenny. 'Particularly when you're talking about the capacity of him to lead. 'I don't think any of these people should be working in their roles anymore, they've broken trust with the American public.'

Muslims supporting Greens candidates represent an ideological ‘clash of beliefs'
GT Communications' Gemma Tognini says Muslims in support of Greens candidates represent a 'clash of beliefs'. 'My take on it was that I didn't feel threatened, but I would say maybe a little bit concerned, but not because of what the gentleman said, Australia is a free country' Ms Tognini said. 'And you're quite right, the Palestinian territories, the disputed territories are not free, they don't have elections there. 'I don't think the Greens celebrate and support the same values that most, even moderate Muslims would hold around sexuality, and same sex marriage, and gender diversity. 'There'd be a fairly swift intersection, or a clash of beliefs where that's concerned.'
