Bodey and the ‘digital dipshits’

Some days it feels like News.com.au is treated a bit like the tearaway member of the News Corp Australia family, with all their click bait and lack of paywalls.

But it seems The Australian’s veteran media and entertainment writer Michael Bodey has a special nickname for them after they broke the embargo on a story from his new book: “Digital dipshits”.

“So 8 people have galleys to my new book but the digital dipshits at my co. @newscomauHQ are the ones to break embargo” he tweeted today.

After having the link removed from the website Bodey then described how he was “currently being restrained from meeting them”.
