Did anyone see that pathetic 2 page spread in the Herald Sun today, pretty much calling for it to be banned? Nice to see that the ABC reads and believes the most shite tabloid newspaper in the country.....

Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you are a mile away from them and you have their shoes.

I only read it while waiting for my coffee at the cafe. I get Teh Age and Australian delivered at home, so dont need to waste money on that piece of crap.....

And then defend their readership thereof... :lol:

Well it needs defending as it has got to be the worst newspaper in the country as to the quality of their stories. Anyone who buys it should be ashamed of themselves....

Oh I know it needs to be defended, that's why I think it's funny.

It's even worse than The Advertiser, and that's a pile of shit.

I don't actually think the sketch was *fantastic*, I just think that people have leapt to far too immediate and too strong a reaction.
