In what sense of the word did the Tele have an ‘exclusive’ when the same story appears on the front of the SMH?
The woman in question spoke to the Tele but not the SMH. The SMH acknowledges that in its piece by naming the Tele as the source of information about “the affair.”
Since when did MPs give up portfolios and profess shame about an old affair. Unless of course Della B’s breached security and parliamentary commitments to maintain the pace of a mid-life crisis. Della must be coming back to earth if he’s now thinking like a politician – staving off an inquiry and saving a parliamentary payout. BTW images of sleeping over at Mum’s are ROFLsome.
Let’s see Labor HQ spin this one.
