Love-a-Duck but not Siobhan Duck
Who has been nominated again as one of Australia’s Worst Journalists
Dear Amy,
It appears that you are the responsible person for the Grecko article which has had widespread internet reports by other media sources.
I am not prepared to tolerate such unfair and biased reporting when you made no effort to contact me. Your article which refers to me as disgraced is unacceptable and unfair. You must be aware that two Supreme Court Judges from N.S.W. and Queensland have reported that the negative events to which you must be referring are untrue and the result of wrongful conviction. These matters will be appealed. Read More
For the first time we can definitely proclaim that the worst journalists and publication are:
LUCY MANLY, PHILLIP KOCH and WOMAN’S DAY
Woman’s Day, January 30 2017 issue, including a story by DailyMail Online, which was entirely false and with lies in almost every sentence. The internet version was even worse. None of the comments she asserts were made by Geoffrey Edelsten in respect to Brynne Gordon, and Manly made no effort to confirm her story with Edelsten or Gordon. Read More
Your article published on 25 March 2015 in The Age is replete with disgraceful lies. You are now rated as a Disgraceful Sewer Rat of journalism – far worse that your usual gutter journalism.
The target of your abuse never quoted a figure of $200 million;
The sale to Sonic included other medical centres not connected with your target;
You failed to mention that he was the largest creditor of Millennium;
Joanne Clements, up until now a gutter journalist for the Herald Sun, has exceeded her depraved, disingenuous, immoral lies and is known now as Sewer Rat of Journalism.
She wrote a story published in Sunday’s Herald Sun which she wrote “Not what the Doc Ordered” based on her co-conspirator gutter journalist Mark Dunn.
She did not give the target of her vitriol any opportunity to reply, so her story was full of lies. Read More
The story ‘Geoff’s certainly one for the ages’ is gutter journalism at its worse.
There were never 3 Lamborghinis with the alleged number plates.
To infer that the delivery of 20,000 babies and owning a nightclub “Centrefold” might not be accurate is true gutter journalism as no effort was made to confirm the facts. Read More
Despite knowing that her article “Gabi Grecko weighs in on husband Geoffrey Edelsten’s new ‘girlfriend’, 26” was in breach of the Domestic Violence Law and the Intervention Order granted to Geoffrey Edelsten over Grecko, Criminal Advocate Croffey persisted with the criminal breach. Read More
Australia’s Worst Journalist has leapt into the record book by posting for the first time an incompetent editor who thrives on having his journalists submit stories that are full of lies. He is a liar himself, in that he has promised a complainant the opportunity to remedy falsehoods published under his watch, but despite making numerous promises he has failed to keep any of them, and thus a complainant has no opportunity of correcting the record.

Australia’s Worst Journalist announces a new nomination THE GUTTER JOURNALIST – Wayne the Wilted Flower. He increases the large number of Gutter and Sewer journalists that are members of the Herald Sun staff. Read More
Stephen Drill, King of the Sewer Rats, has excelled himself once more.
He is the most deceitful contributor (one could never call him a journalist) to the Australian Press.
On Sunday April 3 2016 a story allegedly by NUI TE KOHA was published by the Sunday Herald Sun. This story was in fact written by Drill, who obtained the story by deceitfully informing Geoffrey Edelsten that he was contributing a story involving him and his ex-wife. Read More
Response
This excuse for a journalist contributed an article for the Melbourne Sunday Herald Sun which was filled with lies and no effort was made to ascertain the truth or the opposing view.
Neil Mitchell is a new nomination from radio, he is a crook
Broadcaster
The people of Melbourne have become aware of this second rate journalist who propagates and fabricates stories which are untruthful, his ratings have plummeted with a huge number of listeners tuning to Jon Faine at the ABC.
It is time for Fairfax to dismiss Neil Mitchell, the has-been.
KING OF THE SEWER RATS – PAUL TOOHEY
Many of the previous nominees are purveyors of gutter journalism and can best be described as gutter rats.
There is now a number of media contributors whose work is so evil, full of lies and fabrications with no attention to the truth and failing any efforts of due diligence. PAUL TOOHEY is such a person.
THE MALICIOUS MATT YOUNG
This excuse for a journalist has jumped to the top of the list as the worst journalist in Australia.
The vile, vicious, vitriolic, venomous Vanda Carson: LIAR EXTRAODINAIRE
She ranks as the worst journalist of her gender and one of the worst of News Limited.
NEWS Corp Australia has hit out at the ABC’s Media Watch for unprofessionalism after host Paul Barry failed to seek any response before airing an episode “littered with errors”.
Ben “the blatant liar” Butler is up to his old tricks again, fabricating a story full of lies, totally unbalanced and defamatory.
Working for The Age must be so difficult and unrewarding these days that staff such as Chris Vedelago have to stoop to either plagiarising untruths, misinformation, and other erroneous ideas from Ben Butler or have become hell bent on furthering and adding to the January 2013 notion of a ‘butlerism’.
Dr Edelsten submits the following letter (see transcript below)

Ben Butler Synopsis : Journalistic Failure
UNFORTUNATELY for Karl Quinn of The Age he has had a brain malfunction and produced a misleading and deceptive article to have him nominated into the Australia’s Worst Journalist Awards for 2012.
A new and overdue nomination to Australia’s Worst Journalist.
SIOBHAN DUCK (pronunciation – should be banned)
This writer (could never be referred to as a journalist) succeeded Lawrence Money writing an infantile, inane and stupid column weekdays.
Emma Nolan the editor of TV Week has left this magazine without a competent editor.
This ugly, no, extremely ugly, incompetent journalist has struck it rich. She is employed by News Limited despite lacking any talent deserving employment by any media organisation.
It is sad that this excuse for a journalist must be nominated AGAIN as Australia’s Worst Journalist.
Byrne’s last two musings Saturday 11 August, and Saturday 18 August, 2012 have, as always, included a number of factual errors. One has to ask is this deliberate or just because of intellectual failings.
ANNETTE SHARP has excelled again as Australia’s Worst Journalist.
Byrne in her depraved, unbalanced, unfair, biased stories ignores the damaging affects they have on her subjects. There are no public interest considerations, only her own prurient interests.
Sharp often writes for The Daily Telegraph stories based upon fabricated, dishonest and obnoxious musings of FIONA BYRNE of the Melbourne Herald Sun, a leading nomination as Australia’s Worst Journalist.

UPDATE: Jill Singer was terminated by News Limited on 2nd March, 2012. On 1st of March 2012 Jill Singer was dishonourably named Australia’s Worst Journalist for 2011 by a landslide.
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.
A late but compelling entry for AWJ 2011 has come in. The so called “business journalist” James Frost at The Australian recently contacted one of our contributors for an interview with the intention to write a story to be published in The Australian newspaper. The terms and subject matter of the interview were agreed, points of order for the article were researched by James Frost and agreed to. From all accounts the interview went well.
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.
Butler must again be nominated as Australia’s Worst Journalist. Whilst he authors stories for the business section of The Age newspaper, they are factually incorrect, punctuated by information gained by misleading sources in a dishonest and unethical way.
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.
Lawrence (no) money is a rodent (his picture is very rat-like), who thankfully is nearing the end of the most inept and unheralded career. How Paul Ramadge, Editor-in-Chief of The Age, can continue to employ such an evil, misleading and deceptive employee, beggars belief.
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.
UPDATE 2: This journalist has contacted one of the contributors to this site and threatened him.
UPDATE: Adam Shand no longer works for A Current Affair.
DERRYN HINCH RECIDIVIST CRIMINAL previously incarcerated and highly likely again FAILURE…
“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.
The poor standards of journalistic integrity are best represented by “A Current Affair”. They try to sensationalise their stories by deliberately deceiving anyone who may help them achieve their aims. The journalist and the producer share the blame.
This journalist deliberately perpetrates stories which are errors of fact, but has her own brand of sarcasm and seeks to be malicious.
This venomous journalist has never succeeded at any of the positions she has occupied, in the print or electronic media. Her most famous achievement to date has been the collapsing (some say “feigning”) in front of the camera.
Undertakings by this person cannot be accepted. Despite speaking to the subject in detail, important factual evidence was not published, so perpetuating tabloid myths.
The title ‘business affairs editor” appears under his name, but his articles display an appalling lack of any business knowledge. There is no doubt that despite his ability to confirm a proposed story as being factual, he is not disposed to do so. This allows him to write a story embellished with incorrect facts, and worsened by ommission of explanations, which instantaneously destroys the foundation of the story.
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.
To use the word ‘journalist’ for this muck raking column, published daily in the Daily Telegraph, grossly exaggerates her talentless contribution.
Numerous factual errors. Andrew Hornery, unable to transcribe accurately factual matters or deliberately engages in falsehoods to degrade his subject, and heighten his vitriole.
