'Just terrifying': Sydney boy contracts measles two months before his vaccinationThe parents of Liam Eldridge, an 11-month-old who contracted measles on a visit to the Philippines shortly before his vaccination was due, speak out about their terrifying experience. Make sure you use the word terrifying ! It wasnt so terrifying in 1976 when my 13 month old caught it from her cousin. Oh thats right, no-one lost any money then. It's interesting how the measles is suddenly 'terrifying.' Noone died from measles during my lifetime. Even The Brady Bunch joked about catching the measles. Mmm... ABC, what's your agenda? fakenews measles

Keep Sydney Open rejects loser label as unfair, inaccurateThe ABC branded Keep Sydney Open a loser in the NSW election, but the fledgling party may win a seat in the Upper House. _andrew why didn’t KSO just endorse the Greens then Labor in lower house and focus on upper house? KSO didnt explain the voting system well enough to their base and ironically enough probably helped LNP get back in via their exhausted votes in lower house.
