"The single largest factor in the underlying deterioration of the federal budget announced by Treasurer Joe Hockey in December was a cash payout of almost $900 million to Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation.

The massive windfall, revealed in the US group’s accounts a week ago in New York, was at a time when News Corp newspapers were highly critical of the budget and called for deep cuts."

"Seven-tonne Big Mango stolen from Bowen"
Love the correction:
A previous version of this story stated the Big Mango weighed 10 tonnes based on incorrect information provided to Fairfax Media.

MANGO-NE!!!

If only Fairfax had got the 882 mill we could have had more accurate mango reportage.

MANGO-NE provoked IRL loss of shit, good job

MANG-OAX!!

not sold on the nandos mango burg tbh

sounds revolting

mango burgo lame-o

So apaz Casey D0novan erstwhile of Oz Idol spent 6 years being Catfished by some large dykey lady pretending to be a guy, she never met but was strung along by for that long!?

many of those words make no sense.

Also what is a furphy?

there is, hilariously, an entire wikipedia page dedicated to furphy and its history - basically it's an untrue rumor.

i'm as suprised to find out furphy is an aussie term as i was to find out that sook was

omg google for casey donovan find trayce

i had seen a couple of furphy tanks when younger - parents love all that old farm-type tat - but didn't put two and two together for ages that it related to the term.

australia, don't name yr sons "grant"

FFS sometimes I think Australian newspaper words just pick random words for headlines. Is 'bingle' really the best word for a multimillion dollar aeroplane accident?

It's no worse than Sam Worthington getting into a...oh, hang on.

i've been in nz for two weeks, what's been going on (of note)(i already know about those ghastly girls on the gold coast bus).

I don't

keep it that way is my recommendation.

oh right the abbott voters

bye bye BOF. I raise my glass.

I've no idea who BOF is but console yourself with the fact that OMG SYDNEY IS GOING TO HAVE A NEW AIRPORT.

erm, but is it with BO'F resigning before announcing the project?

probably moreso

Given Abbot thinks the airport will cost $2.5bn this is all anyone is likely to see
