The man is a fool. He shoots his mouth off, any story regardless of its factual content, is a story. That News Ltd still employs him says much about the non standards they require of many of their contributors. Todays error by Milne..."An estimated 100 additional centres ... at $2.5 million each equals $2.5billion." ....is just not good enough. The implication in those miscalculated figures, whether his or someone elses, is the justification for the story 'Kevins here to help blow the dough'. Well Mr Milne you continue to blow what journalistic reputation you may have had. Is it any wonder the public at large regard you as a joke, not even a funny one. Its worth remembering it was the "genius investigative " work by Milne that broke the Rudd, New York nightclub story. How that story got what it deserved, relegated to the so what bin. Such is the standard of this News Ltd high fliers writing. I’ve said it before and todays article by Glenn Milne in the Australian is further proof. The man is a fool.
