MEDIA NEWS:

News Crap Australia has concluded an internal investigation into the output of one of its most prominent righters, Peta Credlin.

The probe by a panel of Murdoch media senior editorial staffers was prompted by complaints from readers of the company’s newspapers and online websites, as well as viewers of Ms Credlin’s “after dark” program on Sky News.

The Bug understands that the complaints all alleged that Ms Credlin was repeating the same commentary in all of her columns published weekly in News Crap Australia turdbloids.

The panel of editorial staff commissioned a forensic examination of Ms Credlin’s past columns and discovered that the complaints were justified.

“It seems that the analysis of her past columns showed that Peta has simply been filing the same copy over and over again, despite being paid handsomely for supposedly penning fresh columns each week,” a source within the Murdoch media said. (main picture)

“In addition, the same forensic probe showed that Peta’s commentary on her Sky News after dark program totally mimicked the repetitious content of her newspaper columns.

“Despite going to air night after night and week after week, she hasn’t actually been offering viewers anything fresh – not a single new comment, just a rehash of her usual lines that have already appeared week after week in her turdbloid columns.” (below)

The News Crap source said the findings of the probe were sent to both the organisation’s international chair, Lachlan Murdoch, and his father, emeritus* chair, Rupert Murdoch.

“We were all expecting very swift action by both Lachlan and Rupert once they were made aware of what Peta had been up to,” the source said.

“They didn’t disappoint and both of them gave quick and unequivocal responses.

“Both said that Peta’s output perfectly meets the expectations they and News Crap set for all of its senior righters.

“In fact both Lachlan and Rupert thought Peta should be in line for a pay boost for her efforts,” the source said.
