In the Public Interests of Whom?

funny watching the Austn media suddenly realise (5 months after the fact) that the Libs lied (or maybe just bent the truth) before the elections… As ridiculous as when it took an invasion to realise that Iraq really didn’t have WMDs
There were plenty people pointing out during the election that interest rates were independent of govt policies; that the stats were fudged, &c… But the simple fact is that the media weren’t interested! And now that Latham’s out of the way and Labor has collapsed into irrelevance again, the media can get back to bashing the Libs by digging up old news… Beazley’s no help of course with his digging up the past, but I don’t suppose he has anything better to do with his time…
