As the nation anxiously awaits the results for the same-sex marriage survey results at 10am (AEDT), Today Show host Karl Stefanovic fired some last-ditch shots at No campaigner Cory Bernardi.
Appearing on the breakfast TV show on Wednesday morning with Yes campaigner Alex Greenwich for a very frank conversation about what’s next for the No camp if the country votes Yes, Stefanovic quipped that the right-leaning Independent Senator would not be receiving any gay wedding invitations.
“Safe to say that Cory Bernardi won’t be invited to any gay marriages,” Stevanovic said, before the co-hosts commented on how much he’d be “missing out”.
Listen: Karl also called out the Prime Minister on live television last week, which had the Mamamia Out Loud team divided. Post continues after audio.
It came shortly after Bernardi – who is refusing to vote for gay marriage even if the Yes camp wins the survey – said it was a “pretty safe bet” he wouldn’t be a guest at any same-sex weddings. Two words: His loss.
The former Liberal party member also stated to Stefanovic why, if your vote was a Yes, it doesn’t really matter all that much, because he’ll keep fighting for “religious freedoms” regardless of what Australians think.
[If the vote is Yes] we’ve always got to try and improve whatever legislation is going forwar-” Bernardi said, before Stefanovic interjected with a quick comeback.

Cory is such a slimy grub and a sore loser, he has been sooking and lashing out after the result. Cory, get a cup of cement in you, snowflake, and harden up. Fact of the matter is that your views are uncivilised, anti-western civilisation, and unAustralian.
I do hope you feel better after spewing your hatred and venom.
What you don't seem to understand is that what you think of Cory Bernardi or anyone else is irrelevant, it's only your opinion to which you are entitled but it's your opinion only and it certainly does not make it a fact.
Just as my opinions are just that, opinions only, not facts.
Cory has been carrying on like a bad loser and sulking. That, is a fact. All you needed to do was hear him on tv on the night.
Sorry, no it's not a fact. I never miss any interview Cory gives. He is articulate, level headed and balanced.
I could easily pronounce that as a fact but you could rightly say, no it's just your opinion and you would be quite correct.
So opinions differ, which is ok seeing we live in a democracy, as long as we realize they are opinions only.
'Facts' like History are sometimes in the eyes of the beholder and can differ quite dramatically.
Absolutely unbelievable how NO voters are being harrassed & bullied by people like karl steffanovic. What happened to freedom of speach & choice. You know, the thing that homosexuals & supporters got & have.
Im glad karl got a choice when he destroyed his wife & kids life as they know it to chase a bit of fluff. Once a dog, always a dog.. Without Lisa toning him down, karls dickheadness shines through severely.. Time to
Exactly sally hardwick, throughout the campaign the Yes voters harassed and bullied any opposition, witness the violent protests and now they're still complaining that 38% voted No.
Signs of things to come.
As for Karl? Thinks he's a hot shot journalist instead of a brekky show host. 😲
What a load of BS. "Harassing, bullying, violent protests"? Just because you pretend it happened doesn't make it true. Yes vote won. Suck it up and stop treating people like they're less than you.
I think you’ll find you’ve confused criticism and disagreement with “harrasment and bullying”. Talk to an LGBTIQ person and they’ll let you know what harrasment and bullying look like.
The only people doing the bullying are those like Bernardi. And Karl's wife left him and abandoned him, not the other way around, and he had not even met Jassmine when his wife left him, so some facts are important here.
