Geezus people. This is the same scenario done to death by "The Footy Show" over the last couple of years.

"[latest supposedly-offended person] is livid because [pick your channel nine serial offender] went too far on [latest over-publicised show] which will be aired on [repeat the date and time a couple of times just in case someone missed it]."

If it looks like a set up and smells like a set up...

Bullshit. Packer hires nobody. He has well paid little slaves to do those menial jobs.

who hired the guy, who supervises the guy who > decides what will be shown, when or even (believe it or not), pull it all together...

What a load of bloody bullshit. What's wrong with being honest and calling a known poofter a poofter?

Both. Packer can be blamed for hireing the guy, who hired the guy, who supervises the guy who
decides what will be shown, when or even (believe it or not), pull it all together...

According to Robert Fidgeon in the Melbourne Herald-Sun Madeleine West was asked 3 times to spice up her material more, so yes they got what the asked for and a nice controversy in the bargain. One of the very few times I agree with Fidgeon. Personally I won't watch it and given them what they want, fuck'em.
