Cracker "exclusive" in The Australian on Friday about an FWC decision on dodgy agreements. Funny though, @workplacexpress reported on it a week earlier. We know Rupert has to find a way to sell his tired old fish-and-chip wrappers, but dubious "exclusive" labels won't help. 1/2

And that's before you get to the tendentious premise of the Oz story; that the FWC president can "order" the tribunal's GM to conduct an inquiry. The independent GM might have a different view.

Nice "exclusive" The Oz! Funny though, looks very much like last week's ⁦@WorkplaceXpress⁩ story: workplaceexpress.com.au/nl06…. Perhaps Rupert should take out a sub!

Terrific "exclusive" in Rupert's The Australian. Appears to cover same territory as last Friday's Workplace Express article: workplaceexpress.com.au/nl06….

So the AFR had an "exclusive" on Monday on the AWU's membership numbers. Would that be the same story that appeared 3 days earlier on @workplacexpress? And the same story AFR called @workplacexpress about, seeking assistance to find documents? Surely not! workplaceexpress.com.au/nl06…
