Oh, Hun!: Barely a week has passed since we wrote about an unfortunate blunder at The Australian, where ex-NSW Liberal MP Daryl Maguire was dubbed a “disgraced ex-ALP MP” in a page nine print article. Imagine our shock when it happened again! The blunder was by yet another News Corp publication, the Herald Sun, which accidentally switched the party affiliation of Victorian Liberal leader Brad Battin.
Once again in a print headline, a Liberal involved in a court matter was erroneously labelled a Labor member — and, again, there was no trace of the same mistake in the online version.
The page 11 print edition of an article about Brad Battin being drawn into a legal matter over a Liberal Party loan featured the subheading: “ALP leader dragged into court case”.
Herald Sun reports ‘ALP Leader’ Brad Battin dragged into court case.
