WIZARDS REPLACE NEWSPAPER STAFF

In a brilliant move, Rupert Murdoch today announced he has hired the fabulous IT Crowd, as seen on ABC TV , to revamp the Northern Territory News.The team of geeks will operate from a dank basement in the Adelaide Advertiser building.

Murdoch said one of the team, Roy, an Irish layabout, had sprained his back flying out from London to Australia aboard a Quaint Arse flight with Alf Garnett and would have to see the late Don Dunstan's masseuse at Norwood before he could sleep on the job.


Mr Murdoch said this dynamic team,responsible for Reynholm Industries making a profit of 18 hundred billion dollars , would make a big difference to News Corp's bottom line. If they produced a similar financial gain at the NT News , Rupert said he would kiss Roy in a place where his mother regularly used to beat him with a shillelagh for sending rude limericks to the editor of the Irish Catholic Times .


One of the nerds, Moss, says he may give up eating popcorn for Adelaide’s smelly pie floaters . A vital member of the trio is Jen who plans to dive off the Glenelg jetty and do the dance of the seven veils at the next Womadelaide. In an exclusive interview with Little Darwin, Jen said Mr Murdoch is similar to Douglas Reynholm , her former boss, an amputee who has the tattoo of a helicopter on the stump of one arm . According to Jen, Murdoch has a jumbo jet tattoo on one arm , another large tatt of Skippy the kangaroo waving an American flag on his hairy chest and is surrounded by Spacemanagers.
