Ann: Response to Media Speculation, page-58

Isn't that per se an example of media bias if the AFR is attacking them as you say. Look the media can make anyone appear murky and run an FUD campaign on them. Especially easy if the paper attacking them has a monopoly position in the Australian market. After the share price tumbles they can always say, yes look our critiques were right all alone, it was dodgy, murky, built on sand, a ponzi, a pyramid. So it becomes self fulfilling without connection to the original charges. Then the tabloid style attacks on directors/ceos begin. It's hilarious watching all these investors worked up about the cars/houses of directors/officers, but then again tall poppy syndrome is easy to manipulate and is a go to for Aussie media. There are too many people who just blindly accept what the AFR says without serious critique.
