I was born in 1959 if anyone wants to bung me a bottle of Grange.

This was interesting to watch unfold. BOF categorically denied ever receiving said bottle during an interview on our Breakfast program,then 2 1/2 hours later resigns. Newsroom goes into meltdown with excitement and the days talk back agenda is set. Best bit was we beat the wires services by 14 mins to get the story to air and the papers online etc was still ages off the pace.
Something that talk back radio does better than than any other medium....immediacy.

That's my opinion and I welcome yours on 13 13 32.....(play jingle.... Go to ad break)

He did and it's all my fault - though I thought this was more related to telling lies to ICAC than politics...

Anyway, apparently a newspaper knew about it 2 months ago - and someone else has known since 2011.
