Don't answer that. Anyway, here's a quote from smh.com.au this morning:
Marcus spoke shortly before news emerged that two Britons had been charged with firearms offences on Saturday after reportedly trying to sell a stolen copy of the new Harry Potter book to London tabloid The Sun for about $US91,000 ($120,500).
Now my anal-ytic questions is why the amount is reported in US dollars, when the whole affair involved two Britons and a London newspaper?
Seriously, if you have to ask that question, you'd not likely understand the answer.
Got it off a US wire service, perhaps?
Niall, I don't even understand your comment.
You're probably right tony. My answer was that the smh is tabloid journalism wearing a broadsheet's pants, but you're a little more realistic. Can't wait to get back (sept 10 btw, better tell SWMBO) and start digging into the herald from closer range.
