The Sydney Morning Herald had a quarter page story about 4 pages into the sports section on who won the NRL's offical award for player of the year. I am guessing that the ABC did not mention it at all.
A couple of years ago News Limited agreed to allow 4 or 5 channel nine "journalists" (all ex players with links to News Ltd) join the voting panel. So long as they retained control of the award and it remained the official NRL award ceremony.
Essentially Fairfax and the ABC are completely unwelcome at the official NRL awards night because it is completely controlled by News Ltd.
What is to be done about this?
