Signal Boost

I'm getting increasingly pissed off. Not only am I getting daily Liberal party ( the Total Bastards Party from that voting cartoon I posted a few days back) propaganda in my mailbox, but it's not even made from paper I can use for its best purpose (too rough and stiff); but now the commercial television channels are refusing to run an ad that points out how the Murdoch press is using their front pages for blatant Liberal party electioneering - so blatant that the Australian Press Council has told them to stop it. And one reason they're refusing to run the ad, is, and I quote, they don't want to criticise Murdoch. Murdoch's son being on the board of that channel has nothing to do with it, I'm sure. The News Corp CEO, of course, has denied that there is any such bias.

Anyway - the ad in question is here, as are the reasons the commercial channels pulled the ad, and the resultant Streisland Effect
