    More magazines

    So I've had a bit more time to read "Investigate" (note lack of italics) and I've got to say I'm not impressed. Since the last post I've had a bit more of a dip and read the Costello interview. I'm on record (a diligent person would provide the link. Diligent people suck.) as saying that Peter Costello is my PM of choice amongst the current crop of Feds. He still is. But to call the puff piece in Investigate an interview is like saying Sixty Minutes has credibility or that the Herald-Sun (get a Victorian to explain) during the Kennett years was impartial. This was the most biassed, one sided, you sit there while I feed you your lines piece of bullshit masquerading as journalism that I've read in ages. The only purpose it served was to focus my bullshitmeter.
    I'm going to bed, but next:

    I don't remember writing that post (bit of a celebration last night). I'm impressed by my legibility.
    A bit vitriolic, though (only a little, it really is a puff-piece).

    damn, and there's me thinkin it sounded a lot like what i write. kinda flowing, and stuff, without pausing to explain the hard bits.
    maybe i should rename my blog "puff piece pointlessness". i'll probably change my mind if i ever work out what puff piece means.
