The 9pm Edict #16
b'Prime Minister Julia Gillard delivers the world\\u2019s most tedious Christmas Message. A motorists organisation wants the world to be more predictable, just like it used to be. And Twitter wins the hearts and minds of the world\\u2019s media, the puppets.
In this episode you\\u2019ll hear what I think about the Prime Minister\\u2019s Christmas Message, which doesn\\u2019t hold a candle to my own Christmas Message from 2008, let alone the Queen\\u2019s Christmas Messages, such as Her Majesty\\u2019s 50th such message in 2007; the NRMA\\u2019s claim that petrol pricing is too hard to predict and their call for an inquiry; the fact, or supposed fact, that Twitter gets more news mentions than Facebook, even though the latter is much, much bigger; and a really, really stupid tweet from Shahira Abouellail, whose blog is called fazerofzanight.
