Pixelated Semantics

A schizotypical inventory

The expressions of Oscar Cleavage

Government ministers seem to have less trouble with the truth in private than in public:

'The fact is the great majority of Australians do not support what we are doing on industrial relations, they violently disagree'

according to Senator Minchin, speaking to a right-wing think tank. This is an admission that recent changes to IR laws were without mandate or justification, and that the wishes of the electorate are being willfully ignored; it's also a departure from the usual government PR front presented.

A bit of a lapse today for Reuters news agency as well, with their coverage of a recent event including a feature labeled 'PICTURES: Oscar Cleavage and Expressions'. Cleavage is now 'top news'?
