Malcolm Turnbull isn’t just Australia’s richest member of parliament,
he’s also arguably the most media savvy. And as a former journalist and
right-hand man of Kerry Packer, why wouldn’t he be?
Turnbull’s media savvy has turned up in his monthly email newsletter to
his Wentworth constituents (see below), which bears a close resemblance
to Australia’s “best practice” email newsletter – Crikey. Turnbull uses
the same introduction format and index style as Crikey.
CRIKEY: We give Malcolm 7/10 for his execution of the Crikey style. It
would become a 9/10 if he changed his typeface to a more readable sans
serif font.
Crikey is committed to hosting lively discussions. Help us keep the conversation useful, interesting and welcoming. We aim to publish comments quickly in the interest of promoting robust conversation, but we’re a small team and we deploy filters to protect against legal risk. Occasionally your comment may be held up while we review, but we’re working as fast as we can to keep the conversation rolling.
