Well this one dissappeared as well ... wonder why ... although I think it was the Age newspaper blog which is normally fairly easy to post to.... (also see art@work response).

I am outraged at this internationally embarrassing treatment of a guest working doctor in Australia. Rule of law: innocent until PROVEN guilty? Haa: our legal system is in tatters obviously. Keep sorting that ‘white-stuff’ girls and boys of the Bar: it’s only Rome burning!
So, without our 'working class' hero-Hicks being tortured in Gitmo-bay and in our daily-newspaper blogs, it seems our national systemic racism needs a quick fix. Here we are again exposed even more clearly to Howard's fascist leanings.
We get the quiet 'mia culpa' of his front-page pouting lip (what’s wrong with me?) contrasted with this cynical pandering to an easy win over ‘small brown aliens’ [by way of young graduate Indian doctors]. Pauline’s racist crowds come running to the ballot box. Has anyone noticed a similarity between the Coen Brothers (O Brother Where Art Thou) Klan leader and Howard?
How much more of this hysterical drivel do we have to face before the December election? I hope India stands up for one of their own and makes these bully-boy-cowards squirm all the way to opposition oblivion.
I know we can't expect much from 'wedge-shy' Rudd and co. Perhaps his QLD-Christianity only translates into Mandarin? Enough silence to make one dream of getting Beazley back!

This section posts various (mostly random) outputs from me that are generally, but not always, stimulated by the flow of 'data' from the daily press of my locality. Sometimes they include 'rejects' from my feedback to the newspaper & may be used to display what is 'edited out'by the gatekeepers. This is presented as a systems view of 'inputs', 'transformations' & 'outputs' of the media system @ work. I will therefore try and relate the material to the Viable Systems Model (VSM) - but not always.
