A cautionary tale…
Bernard Keane / Tuesday, 9 February 2010 / 9
The Government’s weekend handout to the free-to-air television networks — $100-odd million this year and $150m next -– has sunk with barely a trace in the media.
Glenn Dyer / Tuesday, 9 February 2010 / 0
The booming Aussie dollar is encouraging Australians to travel more overseas, yesterday’s Super Bowl was the most watched game in history and the most watched TV show ever, Clive Palmer is back to his old tricks and more business briefs.

I must commend you on your ability to draw panicked dogs. I like it.
This is an amazing piece that renders me almost speechless.
Stephen Smith’s cat has a lot to answer for…Ups and downs, but FD just gets deeper and deeper…must meditate further
Good grief! I leave the keyboard for five minutes to commune with nature and swill a bit of chardy….
And come back to find the dog’s drawn another friggin masterpiece.
This one is even deeper than usual FD. Bravo!!
Wherever they locate detention centres and whoever funds them makes little difference. Rudd is making no gains on Howard’s Pacific Solution he’s just changing destinations.
A day later after having done as Paddy did, I now address the computer-which has been a little off air today.
Totally first class, FD. Frames one and four are t-shirt musts.
Damn! I forgot to add that this is the best rendition of ‘The Cat’ on Stephen Smiths head. And frames three and four are terrific.
If only this was a joke… Although Julia Gillard is hilarious. What is she supposed to be exactly?
that’s really a fantastic post ! ! added to my favourite blogs list..pest control mesa
This breaks my heart.
If dogs rather than refugees were shut up in these places far more people would get upset about the situation.
