Openly "left-of-center"? Wouldn't "openly left wing" be a lot more accurate?

I find the statement that she is "generally respected by all sides of politics for her political journalism" very hard to believe. Can we find some authority for that statement?

More importantly: shouldn't "she writes Webdiary" be "she founded, edits, manages and writes for Webdiary" or something like that? I don't think the current text gives her enough credit.

A personal note: IMHO Off the Rails is by far the most useful book about Pauline Hanson. Thoroughly recommended.

Just a parellel thought - some aspects of Australian 'larrikin' journalism seem to me to have parellels in Hunter S. Thompson's gonzo journalism. Any takers?? Mercurius 01:27, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
