You can’t see the item complaining about the ads for the ads
The Australian’s media diarist Amanda Meade wrote an entertaining piece on the paper’s website today, which Mumbrella linked to earlier on.
There is, however, a certain irony about the complaint in her piece, which is headlined: “We can’t see the show for the ads”.
Can you spot what it is?

Speaking of the Oz media section – am I the only one who, at first sight, thought story 1 “Campaign bound by cliches – The new Australian advertising campaign should not talk up our cleverness too much” might be a brave criticism of that paper’s new Think. Again. campaign?

How can these sort of ads possibly be effective? Don’t they just drive people away?

Off topic I know, but I loathe the ‘Think. Again’ campaign. It’s patronising and suggests that The Australian is some kind of saviour of our collective national intellect. Message to Rupert Murdoch and his band of ostriches- there are plenty of (free) places which enable us to expand our knowledge, engage in meaningful debate, and get in depth background to what’s going on in the world.
So to the creators of the OZ campaign perhaps guys, it is you who needs to heed your own advice and Think Again.
