His smugness can be a bit abrasive, but it is part of his comedic style which has brought him undeniable success. As an Australian I think it is important to point out that he is biased towards the Labour party (one of two of our main political parties, the other being the LNP[Liberal National Party/the Coalition], not quite as much of a duopoly as Democrats and Republicans in the US, but every election still leads to Labour or the LNP winning). This said he has done some great independent journalism that the mainstream media has avoided/missed. With results such as exposing the corrupt deputy leader John Barilaro, of our largest state by population, NSW, which ultimately led to his resignation. Unfortunately Barilaro has largely escaped punishment for his many dodgy practices. Hopefully with time he will. Jordan's work exposing the all powerful gambling lobby is up there with his most important work, among many other targets. This in my opinion, is a strong candidate for getting his home firebombed(must be doing something right as an investigating journalist to get firebombed), but because he has made quite a few powerful enemies, it is not conclusive who was behind it.
As an Australian, I am happy that people overseas are paying attention to him to help show some of what's really happening down under.
