Comments on: A short history of bossy Herald Sun headlines: Read it now! http://www.crikey.com.au/2009/05/18/a-short-history-of-bossy-herald-sun-headlines-read-it-now/ now with extra source Sun, 12 Feb 2012 10:13:47 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: David Sanderson http://www.crikey.com.au/2009/05/18/a-short-history-of-bossy-herald-sun-headlines-read-it-now/#comment-26796 David Sanderson Mon, 18 May 2009 10:21:58 +0000 http://www.crikey.com.au/?p=59052#comment-26796 The comparison of the GLF and the Hun was illuminating. I am tired of 'campaigning' newspapers. 'Campaigning' has become a cheap and easy substitute for quality journalism. As editorial budgets continue to decline on the broadsheets we can expect to see more and more of this brash and empty substitute flaunting its tedious, moralising and populist wares. As of now I am launching a campaign against campaigning papers. Their tired and worn out tricks MUST GO NOW. WE THE PEOPLE DEMAND THAT THESE CHARLATANS BE FORCED OUT OF OFFICE NOW (OR MAYBE NEXT MONTH, OR THE MONTH AFTER THAT). DISMISS THE EDITORS! GERARD HENDERSON IS A BORING OLD TURD. GET RID OF HIM!
