Re: Shappelle Corby and Channel 9
That's why the whole Corby thing is annoying me. You aren't seeing the whole thing over there, obviously, but here she is headline news, on every channel, in every paper, people are discussing the case on every media website....its insane.
even the giraffe has more right to media attention, in my little humble opinion......
But then you consider the poor kids in places like Syria, and the youngsters setting fire to themselves to try and help their beloved Tibet, and you wonder, WTF are people even giving this drug dealer space in the their thoughts?

Go to channel 10. That slopestyle is the best. Watching a 19 year old Canadian girl throw herself 3 stories in the air, land on the 'knuckle' and break a jaw, beats the hell out of anything Channel 9 can throw up any day of the week.

Seems to be growing support for Kochies stance on the $2 million superdeal Corby is being offered.

Maybe she should keep her head down and her family should have her secretly removed before she ends up back in jail. private plane, secluded airstrip, goodbye. Forget the media hype and money, make a dash for freedom. That would be a good news story.

This is her emerging from Jail.
Reminds me of that phrase, The Bhurkas are better at Hungry Jacks

She's missed out on so much over the last 9 years. Just imagine the first time she goes to use the Coles self serve checkouts and gets the error message "UNEXPECTED ITEM IN BAGGING AREA"

Not sure I can agree Corby 'did the crime did the time' fits the situation.
What cost was the extensive aid given by the Australian Govt and consulate ( read taxpayer ). If she profits now she should repay that debt.

I've changed my mind on the issue.
All round sack of sh*t Campbell Newman has come out against her and her getting money for her story. Therefore I say "well done and go for it, you useless bogan druggie".
At least served her time for her crimes.

Personally I can't trust the Indonesian legal system. Not saying she's innocent but anything government in Indonesia is a basket case.

Re: Shappelle Corby and Channel 9
I think you'll find that many Be members and Australians watch these tabloid channels....the subject matter interests them enough somewhere....
otherwise why would they know anything about them?
Many people are over Schapelle...
Some of the made for tv dramas are fine....it's the only thing I will watch...I enjoyed INXS and Paper Giants....it's the soaps that are awful.
