There was a promo on Channel 7 this morning for a story on Today Tonight. The basic idea of the promo is that you can save big dollars by buying things overseas online. Big surprise, they interviewed someone from eBay. I do wonder if these things are actually advertorials, and on the whole I loathe these pseudo ‘Current Affairs’ programs. If you want real Current Affairs, flip over to the ABC.

Wow, way to support local business Channel 7. Don’t you understand that as a powerful media corporation, you have a moral responsibility to the Australian economy? This weekend, there will be a large line up of moronic Today Tonight viewers walking in to Australian retailers, asking questions about products, trying on clothes & shoes, basically wasting the staff’s time so they can go home and order it online at half the price.
