tip off

Well, at least there’s nothing awry in the world of radio

Good news for those wanting to see that at least one form of media in the country is swimming along without serious problems:

  • Biggest leap in audience share in Australia? Adelaide’s Bob “I hope they bloody drown out there on their way over here” Francis.
  • Sydney’s most listened-to talk host, with his ratings jumping by 1.4 points to a share of 18.5%? Alan “Put her in the same chaff bag as Julia Gillard and throw them both out to sea” Jones. (PS That sort of violent invective is apparently OK, according to ACMA.)
  • The most popular FM commercial presenter in Sydney, with a rise of 0.7 points to a share of 10.5%? Kyle “What a fat bitter thing you are. You’re deputy editor of an online thing. You’ve got a nothing job anyway. You’re a piece of shit” Sandilands.

I think you can see why our job here at Pure Poison is done.

    Ah, that free, rambunctious media championed by Andy. He’ll be happy to know his own class of free speech is vouch-safed in our brave new media landscape.

    Wow, with a market like that, how could any purveyor of prejudice and selfish anger possibly fail?

    The seeds of cultural destruction have been sown, watered with the tears of the decent and we will all reap the bitter harvest.

    That strange sound emanating from Darling Harbour is the sound of brains being surgically removed and being replaced with a lump of mud. 0.001% is all that’s left.

    That strange sound emanating from Darling Harbour is the sound of brains being surgically removed and being replaced with a lump of mud. 0.001% is all that’s left.

    And then when the patient wakes up and the neurosurgeon apologises for accidentally taking out so much brain, the patient replies “She’ll be right mate, no worries!”

    What is going to happen to the Pure Poison communal lemon once this blog ends?

    Is Dave or Jeremy going to take it home to keep sucking on it in the comfort of their own homes?

    Perhaps it could be given away to one of the regulars who have all but sucked the last remains of sourness from it?

    Perhaps I could become a demi-demagogue from within the comments section, picking up the slack whenever Tim or Andrew appear to be losing them.

    I did start setting up a discussion board to carry on where PP left off if people are into it. I’ll post a link in the weekend thread if I get it sorted out by then. If people want to do it you’re welcome to join us Howie.
