Not quite the same thing

Surely an honest mistake at the Daily Telegraph: Mr Abbott addressed his own party room, with polls showing his satisfaction level had hit a low of 60 per cent.

If you sell a product that’s not allowed to be advertised in Australia due to its harmful nature, how do you let people know that you’ve released a new brand?

“Labor’s” Speaker who won his seat on a Coalition ticket and whose behaviour was covered by the Coalition for years

Forget that Peter Slipper was elected on a Coalition ticket and that no other MPs in parliament have the power to kick him out until the next election.

A tragedy where sanctimonious comment threads actually endanger kids

Herald Sun SHOCK EXPOSE: Political people have political beliefs and sometimes express them publicly!

Another Herald Sun beatup on the Occupy Melbourne protest, this time bashing the Greens because someone on their payroll might have been involved (HOW OUTRAGEOUS). The Hun’s headline?
