Grain of truth

My joke in the previous post about needing to 'sex up' the lagging Australian Wheat Board enquiry was truer than I realized. I learn from Tim Blair that Media Watch has found out an ALP staffer phoning in a fake question to a Kim Beazley talkback about her concerns - as just another ordinary young voter - about AWB. Fantastic. The fact that they have to fake up a 'concerned voter' proves, if proof were needed, that this issue has absolutely no traction in voterland. The ABC/Fairfax will be running their 'AWB scandal watch' right up to the day Howard wins the next election.
