Catch the Media Watch segment on smoking tonight. The Aus has been unfairly criticised for running articles claiming that smoking rates have increased since the introduction of plain packaging. [The fact is that they have actually decreased - not saying that plain packaging is the reason - it couldn't be because it was ALP policy]. How dare the biased ABC report the facts when a privately owned media organisation who are perfectly entitled to spread their own mythology decides to do so - for whatever nefarious reason. When will Australians wake up and demand the privatisation, or better still, the abolition of this subversive organisation.
