At least with the Australian you can discard the sports section at the front and get to the real news quickly. What else could you expect in a sports centric country like Australia.

Seems that NEWS needs to be either the Aussies winning or a Qantas pilot being caught breaking wind...<br /><br />Maybe NewsCorp and Fairfax think this whole Georgia thing is some sort of minor issue from the deep south of America? Funny story - at the RWC in Sydney back in 2003, Georgia was playing Sth Africa. Georgia scored a try - we all cheered, then they played "Georgia on my mind" by Ray Charles... The bogans are taking over the country... Wow, what an embarrassing reflection on the state of reporting in Australia.
