Media stand up for “Freedom of Speech”
It came as a suprise to me when i heard on ABC 702 at 4:04pm this afternoon that all the big media gooru’s have joined together in a meeting today to stand up against the lack of “freedom of speech” in Australia. “Fancy that!” I thought, “media wanting everyone to have a fair say… “. Ho ho ho that delusion didn’t last long as a representative from Fairfax spoke to Richard Glover regarding the stand soon cleared all foggy patches.
Basically all the heads of “reputable” media in Australia got together for a coushie lunch and of course stuffed them selves silly with oysters, lobsters, cucumber sandwiches, fillet stake, truffles, those itty-bitty cakes, Moet & Chandon, Penfolds Grange and perhaps some Hill of Grace. Between gracefully woofing down the provided goodies they some how found time to discuss how unfair it was that the government, major and minor companies and even individuals are extremely protective over privet and confidential information and how there should be some law allowing the media to access this information to of course “benefit the people” rather then produce a good story in this terrible news drought.
I must say that this is a very typical move by the media however i find it rather amusing the way in which they are arguing the matter, using the bloody line:
The people deserve to know the TRUTH…
Of course in this statement TRUTH stands for:
Totaly Ridiculously Unreliable Titty-lying Handful-of-shit
