The Verbose Ghost

Ramblings on the fourth estate, media ownership, censorship, journo gossip, and anything else I can loosely fold into the "media" category. Please don't be put off by the title - I will try to keep the verbal wankery to a minimum.

Eddie has not, nor will he ever, eat a "shit sandwich": Nine lawyers

It looks like the Nine lawyers have jumped on the fire Mark Llewellyn's affidavit started and come down hard on poor old Crikey. I received an email from Crikey at about 7.30 tonight telling me to enjoy tonight's World Cup match, and telling me that the NSW Supreme Court has... oh just read the following:

"The Supreme Court of NSW has ordered that until further order there be no publication or dissemination of any part of the contents of the affidavit of Mark Llewellyn sworn and filed on 23 June 2006 or any document referring to or recording the substance or effect of any part of affidavit."

So, until further notice, please do not disseminate the "shit sandwich" material that was posted earlier tonight. Eddie, John Alexander and Jamie Packer will be livid.
