Harold’s Qantas boycott

Dr Mumbo notes unusually strong words from media guru Harold Mitchell in his column for Fairfax’s Saturday newspapers.

In the piece, the man who created Australia’s biggest media buying shop, has little sympathy for the national airline’s current pleas for government help. Mitchell (who regularly flew with the airline to London) reveals that he is boycotting Qantas until the current management are ousted. He writes: “I feel so angry… I won’t travel Qantas again while the current chairman and chief executive are there.”
