Just wondering if ‘Burn In Hell’ should be in quotation marks here…seems like a strong stand alone statement unless they are quoting someone.

I agree.

Although it’s not the first time that Ten Sydney have made graphics for major stories which are arguably too editorial, I seem to recall “Rot In Hell” being used for one several years ago.

Someone yelled it as he left court today.

I don’t understand. Bolt should be sacked but Pell shouldn’t burn in hell?? Or maybe it’s the other way around. I’m confused.

Breaking news ticker across the bottom on the ABC main channel today.

Which is why it should have quotation marks.

Seems like quotation marks would have been better.

Adelaide have one of the best 10 News First sets IMO. It’s so small but so elegant.

Front page of tomorrow’s Herald Sun.

Interesting that the Herald Sun is crowing about “How We Broke the Story in February 2016” after the News Corp reporter ‘went through hell’ after Andrew Bolt attacked her Pell story and was forced out of her job.

As an interesting aside, Cardinal Sin is actually quite the hero in the Philippines… he was a key figure in the people power revolution of 1986.

Not all Cardinal Sins are bad.

Just thought you’d like to know…
