Putting the pee in MPA
To the relaunch of Magazine Publishers of Australia, where bathrooms appeared to be the theme of the night.
NewsLifeMedia boss Nicole Sheffield revealed that she had nearly missed giving her speech after getting locked in the bathroom of the private dining club. She told guests: ‘I wasn’t in the toilet for ten minutes – I was actually stuck in there.”
Meanwhile, Pacific Magazines boss Nick Chan was covering similar territory, rehearsing what he suggested were the cliched arguments for the survival of print. He said: “The argument is that you can’t take the computer to the toilet. You can imagine the trepidation I feel that our entire medium is resting on a toilet seat.”
