because the media have built the whole thing up to be something much more than what it really is
She's a convicted drug smuggler...a criminal....it's pathetic the way the Australian media have acted about her.

My opinion on it...she has spent YEARS in gaol. To me the woman has paid her dues for her crime. Guilty or not, she has had plenty of time to reflect on what happened, and hopefully, the rest of her life will be spent on making this world a better place.
Cheers Col

Its typical of australians to apply the hero factor to those that dont deserve it. Convicted criminals that profit form their crimes and sports persons who win awards and accolades for kicking or hitting a fn ball.

I'm with you buggerlugs!
Get her off the TV because I couldn't really give a! They could report on more important things like the drought in Qld, the fact that the Isa, the Curry and other places are really looking down the barrel of no water! |

Why so much interest? Her family carrying on like pork chops in front of the media has a lot to do with it.

If reports are correct that she can benefit from this circumventing proceeds of crime laws via a Indo bank account, what lesson is passed to our younger generation?
I agree she has likely done the crime and done the time. Fair enough. But if she now benefits financially that is just plain wrong and the media are the core of the problem.

It was/is a bad day for Australia - 7th February 2009 Black Saturday, 173 Aussies died. RIP
Yet our pathetic media is obsessed with a worthless piece of bogan criminal trash. Go figure. |

Pretty pathetic news priorities for sure, who gives a toss about crap like this convicted -----,
even more pathetic to watch media reporters/poo-parazzi climbing over each other to get a scoop. |

At the time pretty white woman caught up in some heavy ****, so that is why the media attention.
PB has it half right, I'd let her take ME out to dinner after she signs her nice media deal, $$$. |

No one I know gives a flying duck, the media have whipped themselves into a frenzy over it and think we all care.
I like how they say there is a media circus, hello, step back and have a look, you are the circus. We are going to have to put up with it for a long time, every time she farts it will be headlines. Wait till she comes back to Oz (God I hope not) everyone will be paying her for an exclusive.

Yep sick of seeing headlines and **** on TV about this dumb mole..
And to those saying she has done her time, she hasnt even done half her sentence yet.. I have no doubt in my mind there is politics at play here some where.... Filthy drug runner, and our media portrays her as some sort of hero... Boils my blood!!

Remember Black Saturday...not some drug smuggler who got caught and paid the price. Then again, we made a "national hero" out of Ned Kelly, a common horse thief and wantonly cruel cop killer who got what he so richly deserved...no idea why we do that either... |

Ch 9 have a vested interest in promoting her due to the telemovie about her family and highly paid interview they will probably do with her
She and her family have or will become wealthy as a result of all this, her sister successfully sued Ch7 for over $1mil a while back. |

...and ch 9 have just shot themselves in the foot - they've moved the premiere of the telemovie up to Sunday night against INXS - Never Tear Us Apart.  She should get creamed which is what the grubby mob deserve. |
