As Murdoch famously said to the editor of the Sunday Times "This is showbusiness". Murdoch gives his readers what he thinks they want. The problem now is that he can't figure out if they want Rudd or Howard.
The Australian has now dropped the link to this youtube video so i thought i'd include it here.
This is the best bit of poltical showbusiness i've ever seen. Sorry i didn't embed it but i'm having webtroubles.
The video portrays 'the Rudd' as a communist dictator manipulating the impressionable masses into his service. It follows the socialist line i've been taking in this blog for some time. Rudd is just creepy. He's all about re-education - a theme that comes up in the video on the way he dealt with McLellan.
Thanks heavens there are other people out there who can see this. They are also a damn sight better than me at getting the message across because this video was shown almost in its entirity on the 7:30 report last night. Brissenden described is as light humour. To me it's deadly serious, it's just a brilliant way of getting the message accross by taking the piss.
This all started with Team America the best film ever made.
The threat is real.
