Tin Tin Dec 2008 - Malcolm Turnbull

Avid Tin Tin Readers may have noticed whole of government ministerial report cards appearing in the national newspapers.  These emulate those undertaken by Tin Tin Federally and for the last State election in NSW.  Don’t be fooled by these pale imitations.  When you pay your eleven dollars for the Tin Tin Index you can be sure that the report card was not developed in the horrific confines of the national press. We rarely watch the 7.30 Report and Lateline is too late for our bedtime.  We merely scan the Murdoch Press and we look on with disdain at the shadows which were once The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald. Our index is compiled by never mentioning politics, and from talking to shearers and rouseabouts, farmers, truck drivers and post hole diggers, the folks of the regions, remote areas and suburbs and by monitoring the views and ideas of the post-political younger generations. We use no scientific method and we ask no rote questions. Our instincts and our experiences of people are our guide. At the very least we provide you with an alternative to the smug world of political journalism and the ever growing number of innocuous national opinion polls.
