Mayne Vs Milne

Apparently, the thuggish Sydney Toiletgraph reporter got his facts wrong:

A furious Crikey founder Stephen Mayne today condemned political journalist Glenn Milne for getting his facts wrong.

Milne accused Mayne of putting up a link from a story on Crikey earlier this year to a blog that accused Milne of being a sexual predator.

However, Mayne told smh.com.au today he had nothing to do with the link and added: "In my view Crikey have done the wrong thing linking to that blog.

"I'm at war with that blog and I'm the biggest victim of that blog [and now to be accused of] something that I know nothing about for supposedly endorsing a bloke who I'm at war with, who's stalking me. It's just a bizarre turn of events."

Today Crikey national affairs editor Christian Kerr wrote on the Crikey site: "Change the migraine medication Glenn before you get more befuddled ... because you attacked the wrong person at the Walkleys."


So much for unsubstantiated rumours. Somebody should have told Milne that Mayne sold his ezine last year. Milne apologises to Mayne then accuses him of getting his facts wrong in his column. The gall.

The lads at News LTD are giving Mayne a hard time. Maybe it's because Mayne has a habbit of rocking up to AGMs and asking old Murdoch hard-hitting questions.

Earlier in the evening Milne also abused his former Channel 7 boss for sacking him. Angry little man.
