I'd never come across Crikey until your post and an article about Australian news media in this week's New Zealand Listener


Quote "One venture unlikely to be directly troubled by media ownership laws in Australia is Crikey.com.au, the lively vehicle for political, financial and media commentary founded by journalist and former parliamentary press secretary Stephen Mayne and his wife Paula Piccini. After five years' operation out of a Melbourne bedroom ? during which it broke more good stories than many of its mainstream media rivals would care to admit ? Crikey has been sold by its founders for $A1 million."

Was only a matter of time before it was sold on

Sticking it up the power brokers does take its toll

At least its not gone to the BIG END of TOWN
so we can expect more of the same until the new editorial team take over in 2006
