HAVE YOU ORDERED:
[MURDER BY MEDIA, DEATH OF DEMOCRACY
IN AUSTRALIA]
Next Saturday between 12 noon and 2pm I will be at the George Street branch of Dymocks in Sydney signing copies of "Murder by Media, Death of Democracy in Australia". I received 600 copies of the book yesterday - with several thousand to follow next week. The 600 have already been allocated to pre-launch buyers and posted to Dymocks stores in preparation for the launch.
Dymocks have agreed to become the national distributors of the book. They have 90 stores around the country - books will only be available after the launch next Friday at 1pm in Sydney. You will be able to locate your nearest Dymocks store from this link. Yesterday I sent the book to a short list of reporters around the country - just over 20 in total.
Here is another extract from the book:
Mark Leibler is a senior partner in the specialist tax business Arnold Bloch Leibler which is based in Melbourne. It reportedly boats about 30 of Australia's top 200 wealthiest families as clients. He is also a director of Coles Myer Ltd and Jetset Tours Pty Ltd and a former president of the Australian Zionist Organisation which is directly funded by the openly racist state of Israel. He has also been allegedly associated with Israel's secret service, Mossad.
Amongst his 'community activities' he heads the Ethnic Coalition of Australia based at his offices under convenor, Helene Teichmann. Teichmann told me on 17th December 1998 that the Ethnic Coalition of Australia was an exclusive club targeted at combating racial vilification but limited to acting on behalf of only the Italian, Greek, Vietnamese, Chinese and Jewish communities. She also told me "that other Asian, Indian, and even indigenous communities were not welcome" within this Ethnic Coalition. It is under this organisation that Leibler claims to represent a 'broad alliance' of communities.
Leibler and his brother Isi have boasted that many of Australia's one hundred wealthiest families have contracted their companies to look after their tax affairs. This means they assist the wealthy to avoid paying tax by using offshore companies and trusts in countries like the Bermudas where there is no tax.
It was through services, such as those provided by Mark Leibler, that Kerry Packer, Australia's richest man, was assessed as owing just Au$32 in personal income tax over three years.
REMOVING THE MIDDLEMEN (THE MEDIA)
The second chamber would also symbolise an attempt to remove the "middlemen" - the mass media - from the political game, or at least to create an enclave free from media domination of politics. Surely the total commercialisation of political debate is undesirable for anyone, whatever his viewpoint, who is interested in public policy-making. If this is so and if media-driven ideological (and image) competition and the "left" vs "right" numbers game can be taken out of the equation, it is conceivable that sincere differences in political viewpoint will be able to be argued out rationally and a second chamber of the European Parliament constructed which will embody this expectation and hopefully practice. The positive record of Britain's House of Lords, where until now the competitive pressures of mass politics have been kept to a minimum, shows what is achievable.
Hi Scott,
Thanks for the link to the Canadian website in Thursday's ANOTD. I followed this up, and found that one of their sources was Prof Michel Chossudovsky. (Professor of Economics, University of Ottawa, author of "The Globalisation Of Poverty, impacts of IMF and World Bank Reforms". It would take a while to get this book, so I put his name in quotation marks in Altavista search engine, and Voila! up came two of his articles.
They are "The IMF Asian Bailout" and "Destroying National Currencies". I'm sure your readers would find them very interesting. They support the theme of today's ANOTD.
