- "And let me tell you," says a caller, "Gillard could be assassinated." It's a bridge too far, even for MTR, and she is cut off. #CarRadio #
- I didn't hear the segment but MTR listeners think Nick Economou is biased towards the ALP. At least Sophie Mirabella is on soon for balance #
- @DarrenFerrari Indeed! #
- @downesy It would never have worked. #
