Elsewhere – A Fading Star
A Fading Star
It’s always amusing when the media’s narrative is thrown into disarray by facts.The conclusion of the investigation into The Star appears to be just that.
…
The level of build-up suggested that the report, once it was released, would be second only to the FWA report into Craig Thomson.
Except, of course, it wasn’t. In fact, the report even took time to criticise the media – the executive summary goes so far as to quote the Media Alliance Code of Ethics and insinuated that certain parts of the media had been less than strictly observant of the obligations it imposes.

Well the FWA report into Craig Thomson was a blithering work of largely fiction as we know.
Things like – there were no rules, he broke them.
Things like he stole $270,000 for his own election, he did no such thing.
and again it was the Herald who ran and ran the so-called Star casino scandal – only to have it amount to a small hill of nothing.
