It is an obscenity for John Howard to even mouth the word ''Reconciliation".   Laurie     Laurie and Desley Forde   [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------   Tim Dunlop wrote.......... -----Original Message----- From: tdunlop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: RecOzNet2 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thursday, October 21, 1999 10:16 PM Subject: [recoznet2] fingers in the pie Trudy wrote:   "The biggest change I've seen is in the Fairfax press.

I can't pinpoint exactly when the change in policy happened but it was less than a year ago, I think."     Hi Trudy and all,   May be a hint to the situation you mention in Margo Kingston's book about H....n.  She says in that quite explicitly: "...John Howard personally lobbied my editor-in-chief and editor, alleging pro-black bias by myself in particular and the paper in general."   Maybe this explains it in part.   Tim
