Does the Aussie press fawn over the left as the American Press does here? Will they fawn over Rudd as they already do over Hillary (yuck!) here?
Some of it does. But we have reasonably conservative press organs as well - when it comes to newspapers, for example, we have Fairfax papers and NewsCorp papers - NewsCorp tend to be fairly conservative, Fairfax are solidly left wing.
Will they fawn over Rudd as they already do over Hillary (yuck!) here?
Hopefully not - Rudd was PM from 2007 to 2010 and was removed from office because he was seen as a failure - and still is, just not as big a failure as Gillard. Maybe he can reinvent himself, but I doubt it.
