Fraser Anning and Someone Else win March Jerk of the Month 2019

The votes are in and the Accused Christchurch Shooter and Fraser Anning are the March Jerk of the Month winners for 2019.

It was quality over quantity for the March Jerk of the Month, with a higher than usual amount of votes.

It is hard to argue that both winners don’t deserve the official recognition of their jerkdom, and will be strong contenders for the Jerk of the Year later.

For now, relive the tally, and the reasons why they were nominated in the first place.

THE WINNERS – March 2019 Jerk of the Month

ACCUSED CHRISTCHURCH SHOOTER

Why nominated for the Jerk?

Jerk.

Jerk Rating: 10/10

FRASER ANNING

Why nominated for the Jerk?

Less so for his comments after the shooting, and the handling of Eggboy, and more so for his parading himself around the country like he is a man of the people.

This Jerk is only in Canberra because he was the third ranked One Nation senate candidate, an a quirk in how senate voting works along party lines. Not because of the people.

The 19 people that personally gave him a vote at the last election.

Funnily, he almost got the same amount of votes from our pissweak Jerk of the Month poll as he did for an entire Senate election.

Jerk Rating: 19/10

RESULTS – March 2019 Jerk of the Month

Here’s the final results, another tie between two deserving jerks.

THE OTHER NOMINATIONS – March 2019 Jerk of the Month

Others were quite so “popular”, but they were nominated for Jerk of the Month regardless. 

GEORGE PELL

Why nominated for the Jerk?

For confirming the hypocracy of religion by being found guilty of  of child sexual abuse after his trial in Melbourne.

Was once a big man on campus in the Vatican, now simply in the can. And can look forward to many types of sermons inside. 

He might even find the Body of Christ a few times.

Was going to be the month’s sole nomination until the month got worse.

Jerk Rating: 10/10

MARRIED AT FIRST SIGHT (ENTIRE SHOW)

Why nominated for the Jerk?

We have already moaned about that MAFS claims to be a social experiment. And the executive producer did win the February 2019 Jerk of the Month.

But it is hard to read any news website in Australia without a headline from the lowest place on earth. And we aren’t talking about the Mariana Trench.

So to be nominated alongside a homicidal maniac, a child abusing priest, and Fraser Anning shows you just the depth in which MAFS (and Channel Nein in turn)  swims and an indication of the people who are on the show, produce the show, and claim to be an expert on the show.

Jerk Rating: 9/10

JERK OF THE YEAR HONOUR BOARD SO FAR

February 2019 – MKR and Tara McWilliams 

January 2019 – Tennis Jerks and Channel Seven + Fox Cricket
