Ben Sandilands - Journalist

Crikey - Dec 29, 2011

We welcome the new Year with superb nominations for Australia’s Worst Journalist, and the worst publisher.

Ben Sandilands excels as one of the most deserving nominees.  He falsely claims to be an expert in Aviation, but it is truly limited to the principle of rocket science.  Hot air – blown through his rear with faecal matter, which then forms the basis of Crikey the most sarcastic i-net publication which has no integrity, respect for the truth and is without credit seeing its sole purpose is to denigrate individuals regardless of the blatant falsities.

Jill Singer - Journalist

Herald Sun - Nov 30, 2011

Jill Singer has authored an article on Page 35, Herald Sun, November 30 which holds Dr Geoffrey Edelsten up to ridicule and contempt, and is in fact defamatory.  Singer does not know the Dr and her article is based upon media material which has not been properly researched, if at all.

Her effort is disgraceful, and her vitriol and sarcasm based on complete untruths has caused her to be voted one of Australia's Worst Journalists, see Australia's Worst Journalist Awards 2009 and Australia's Worst Journalist Awards 2010.

Adam Shand - Ex-Presenter/Ex-Journalist

Freelancer

UPDATE 3: Adam Shand has featured as a leader in Australia's Worst Journalists.

In order to counteract all the truth, he has had a Wikipedia entry manufactured, which is untruthful and attempts to mislead and be deceptive.

Ben Butler - Journalist

The Age - Jan 4, 2011

Ben Butler, Australia's Worst Journalist in 2009 is again, nay still, Australia's Worst Journalist.

How Paul Ramadge, The Age's Editor-in-Chief, can allow every article written by this misleading and deceptive employee go to print, when its major aim is to try to cause unwarranted damage to a company and people even remotely related to it.

Adam Shand - Presenter

A Current Affair

UPDATE: Adam Shand Fired By A Current Affair.

Paul Barry - Author

Random House Australia - Oct, 2009

"Who wants to be a billionaire? The James Packer Story"

...Barry delights in writing what he perceives as others' failures

As a journalist and author he has been mediocre at best.  His contributions to television have been abject failures.  His ugly smirk never endeared him to TV audiences, and the powers that be quickly ensured his demise as a reporter.

Sydney Morning Herald - Sept 12, 2009

The Age - Sept 12, 2009

This journalist deliberately perpetrates stories which are errors of fact, but has her own brand of sarcasm and seeks to be malicious.

Nick Tabakoff - Journalist

The Daily Telegraph - Sept 26, 2009

Undertakings by this person cannot be accepted.  Despite speaking to the subject in detail, important factual evidence was not published, so perpetuating tabloid myths.

Richard Hinds - Journalist

Sydney Morning Herald - 26 - 27 Sept, 2009

This author  pretends to be the author of articles which have an intellectual quality.  However, he does not do even the basic research, and repeats errors of fact which are the staple of the tabloids.

Andrew Hornery - Journalist

Sydney Morning Herald - Aug 8 to 9, 2009

Sydney Morning Herald - Sep 26 to 27, 2009 (repeat)

Numerous factual errors.  Andrew Hornery, unable to transcribe accurately factual matters or deliberately engages in falsehoods to degrade his subject, and heighten his vitriole.
