Maybe the whole Tory barrel is rotten.

No need to trumpet your ignorance.

Well, It would have been a pretty good article for the
Canberra Times to run, had there been any truth to it, eh?

So if it ain't in the Canberra Times, it ain't happened?

As you might realise from the header, local politics IS, in
fact, the issue here.

It didn't happen, so the Canberra Times couldn't run the
article the lying-dog lib media adviser wanted them to run.

The original post was sent to a politics-related newsgroup that doesn't
deal specifically with canberra, and a canberra newsgroup that doesn't
deal specifically with politics. Therefore the response could have come
from someone who reads only the politics newsgroup, or only the canberra
newsgroup, and therefore doesn't give a rats about the combination of
politics and canberra local issues. In which case, it isn't unreasonable
that they wouldn't know about the event you mentioned.

But how do you know it didn't happen? Just because the Canberra Times
doesn't do a story on it doesn't mean it didn't happen - it just means
the C. Times didn't do a story on it. Not that I disbelieve your story,
just curious to know how you know it didn't happen.

The Crimes is the most biased capital city newspaper in the country,
far worse than the Telegraph, Hearald Sun or Courier Mail. In terms of
Tory rags, I find it unusual they did not publish it, as it would have
made good damage control for Carnell. In this case, even the Canberra
Times wouldn't be able to get away with sucking up to Carnell and her
cronies that advertise in the pathetic rag. There is no way the public
would have swallowed it. Even if someone did get paid it has nothing
to do with the real issue. Was Carnell behind the decision that chose
the company who turned an implosion into an explosion that killed a 12
year old kid? Was she behind the decision to publicise the whole event
like a fireworks display, the reason the kid was there? Did she visit
the girl's family on the night she was killed and lie to them as they
claim? We'll find out when the Coroner's report is released.

er, no we won't:
I had a dream, and in it, his recently-finished draft report
completely fails to come to grips with her involvement in
the whole affair.
