CUT & PASTE Financial journal claims an 'exclusive' this newspaper had a fortnight ago
The Australian Financial Review on corporate tax cuts, yesterday: The Coalition's planned corporate tax cut would deliver consumers one of the largest pay-offs imaginable from a government decision, according to research commissioned by Treasury. "For every $1 lost in tax revenue from cutting the 30 per cent corporate rate, about $2.39 would be returned through consumer welfare," argues economist Chris Murphy.
Where have we heard that before?The Australian,   June 8: Australia stands to gain a "consumer benefit" worth more than twice the value of the federal government's $48.2 billion company tax cut under a new analysis that counters Labor's growing criticism of the potential boost. The Treasurer will assure Australians that the long-term economic gains will be as much as $2.39 for every $1 in the tax burden eased on business â€¦ 
Crikey's Glenn Dyer picks up the thread, yesterday: Surely they could have found someone else, or commissioned their own modelling, but recycling? And the AFR had the hide to claim its story this morning as an "Exclusive" â€¦
Paul McGeough rips into Donald Trump ripping into Hillary Clinton, Fairfax Media papers, yesterday: Billing the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee as a "world-class liar", Trump lashed out in New York, making wild unsubstantiated allegations and at the same time using Clinton's record as a smorgasbord: "Just look at her pathetic email statements or her phony landing in Bosnia, where she said she was under attack, and the attack turned out to be young girls handing her flowers."
Clinton speaking at George Washington University,   March 17, 2008: I remember landing under sniper fire â€¦ There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.
What was that again about "wild unsubstantiated allegations"? Britain's The Telegraph,   March 25, 2008: News footage of the event however showed her claims to have been wide of the mark, and reporters who accompanied her stated that there was no sniper fire. Her account was ridiculed by ABC News as "like a scene from Saving Private Ryan".
Winter for Summers. Quadrant's Tony Thomas on the death of an independent publishing misadventure, yesterday: Poor Left luvvie Anne Summers AO. Her luvvies have Left her, and she's $180,000 in the red. She writes to me, as one of her 576 financial supporters, that her irregularly-published Anne Summers Reports (13 issues) and her Anne Summers Conversations (eight) have folded. Even her cover story on failed prophet Tim Flannery failed to profit. Imagine that!
Not buying it. Rob Harris on Bill Shorten's strip club mea culpa, The Daily Telegraph, yesterday: No one in the history of the world has ever walked into a strip club by mistake, thinking it's a normal bar â€¦ At least when Kevin Rudd was caught out visiting a strip joint in 2003 he admitted he was there, and he stayed.
