Sorry, but it’s time to face facts. First Dog is killing Fairfax and The Daily Rupert is next. It’s simple. Nothing much is going on. Newspapers are therefore redundant, but FD knows how to make a souffle out of nothing and make it rise and rise and rise.

So we’re looking to you, FD – to let us know when the Daily Rupture and the Weekend Vag1na hit the canvas – coz nobody would read either of those rags*
