media campaign that may backfire 13 Years, 8 Months ago
Murdoch's News Ltd disgraceful campaign to influence the outcome of the Oz elections may backfire badly.
With both parties on 73 seats each ( although Labor received about 1 million more votes than any other party)and 4 independents negotiating who will form government-
News Corp have been publishing outrageous tales proclaiming that the conservative Tony 'Mad Monk' Abbott deserves to win despite him not receiving a majority of actual votes ( and News Corp journo's spin has been ludicrous) it will be fun to see how they react after one of his policies..to ban all government classified advertising means Rupert's personal pride an joy which already runs at a big loss. The Australian newspaper will lose about $25M a year in adverts.
Watch Murdoch turn when the penny drops..or the policy is dropped..whatever comes first !
