There were always two newspapers that I knew could cater to my needs. There was "The Age" who is known for it's in depth articles on all the most important happenings of the world, and then there was the "Herald Sun", who skimmed over the serious stuff, dedicated many pages to entertainment and favoured the light hearted stories about ducks wearing rain jackets in the CBD.Over the last few months the line that separated them for so long has become fuzzy. "The Age" selling out, posting double paged ads for everything from socks to supermarket foods and giving insignificant articles about "our" Miranda Kerr's possible engagement to "heart throb" Orlando Bloom 3 quarters of the page.
I always knew where to turn to when I wanted all the informative news on politics, environmental issues and religion in society. Now all we have to hope for is that "The Age" remembers its roots, or the only thing separating the two newspapers will be their sizes.
