Lack of writing talent no hindrance for anti-Israel Lefty

My writing is at best serviceable in that I can, at the very least, make a point unambiguously. On the other hand, damn near everything media darling Antony Loewenstein writes is mangled and requires interpretation. For example:
Last night’s large event in Sydney to support the right of Wikileaks to publish material was a huge success. Thousands turned up to hear speakers chastise the Australian government for shamefully bowing down to America’s wishes over Julian Assange.
And:
Soon after Sydney’s Marrickville council announced in December to embrace boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) against Israel to force the Jewish state to abide by international law — Greens and Labor councillors supported the move — federal Labor frontbencher Anthony Albanese entered the debate.
Preceded by this Loewenstein language-mangling classic:
This is the state of human rights against faceless asylum seekers in Australia.
It's beyond me how Loewenstein makes a living writing this rubbish.

Depends how you define "A living".

He's not exactly getting around in Armani...
