I've said in other places that there are two Sydney Morning Heralds.

One is an old fashioned high-church leftie yawnfest staffed mostly by people who dine out on stories about being stoned in the 60s.

The other is a tabloid bilge pump.

The bilge pays for the yawnfest and everybody tries to pretend that the pulpit isn't being subsidised by the people it rails against.



Worst of both worlds. To my mind, it seems to me that they have rudderless leadership, and lazy journalism. I severely doubt they know anything about the South West of Sydney, for instance. That would require leaving the North Shore occasionally :-)


I resent the suggestion that North Shore residents aren't aware of Sydney's South. I go to the airport all the time, and that's as south as it gets.

As for the West I'll have you know I have been through Strathfield several times, and I once even flew over Parramatta.

Hope I've busted a few stereotypes here tonight!


Are you a journalist? If so, apologies. Otherwise, no stereotype busted.
