What IS it with this guy...??? Last time it was the Cricket, wasn't it. Does he own 51% of Nein? Or
is he really the bosses bum chum? He's still not as bad as Newman.

I pine for the days when Fat Eddie was vilified by the [Melbourne]
print media as a "loser" and "hasbeen". Before he married his wfe,
they were even speculating that he might be gay.
There was quite a "campaign". Then he had this Lazarus-like comeback,
and the rest is history.

Packer, Gyngell and co should cancel Newman's contract and tell him to
go forth and multiply and spread his gobshite to another channel or
better still have him off television completely.

Popular to uneducated, homophobic, rednecks?? Nothing is irrelevant to Austrlian commercial
television! Ratings = Dollars end of story.
And, who says he's popular on Australian television? The few ?what? hundred folks in each state
who have the magic box? I put NO faith in television ratings equating to popularity. Besides Nein
pays ACNielsen for their ratings anyhoo. And sample-based research is a bitch regardless of what
OzTam would have us believe.
