And that’s just one paper today: The Sydney Morning Herald. As Bernard Keane writes:
“The vexing question for Australia’s political journalists is: have they gone too early? Can they sustain leadership speculation all the way until March 12, when Parliament resumes? There’s a Senate sitting next week, but MPs won’t be returning to Canberra for three weeks.
“It’s a tough ask, but surely they’re up to it?”
Make no mistake. Yep, we’re doing this again.

You know we dont have to read it yeah?
Rudd is yesterdays man!!!! When are Journo’s going to stop this pathetic “THEIR Opinion” reporting? POLICY/FACTS are what the Public want & NEED. No wonder DER SPIEGEL is popular and Oz newspapers are going down the drain. CRIKEY your turning me right off subscribing again- your losing the plot. Have read CRIKEY since its early days but notice a lowering of qulaity content and reporting. SINCERELY, D RYAN
It’s curious what gets passed for humour these days?
Like “lemming meringue” when you think of it?
Come on guys. Once was funny.
