Following our exclusive revelations of trouble at the Star News Group, an extraordinary series of attacks have been made on their young reporter Melissa Meehan.
Meehan was said to be extremely uncomfortable about being instructed by management at the financially pressured local newspaper company to do a hatchet job non-story on popular Dandenong Mayor Pinar Yesil in order to pressure the council to start advertising with Star News Group. We should emphasise that – to avoid putting Meehan in a situation where her job could be in jeopardy – that we did not speak with Meehan and do not intend to do so. But our story was very well sourced.
Since publication, we have received a barrage of attacks on Meehan from people we can only assume have a connection with senior management.
They have denigrated her as a “party girl with a drinking problem”, “dumb-ass whose spelling and writing leaves a lot to be desired”, a “no-hoper” and, ironically, a “dud who won’t last the year.” A lengthy email full of personal attacks and unpleasantness has been received by someone with an axe to grind. It was both obscene and extremely unfair. We won’t be publishing it. And to exceed our limits takes some doing.
They did send a number of supposedly embarrassing pictures of Melissa Meehan enjoying herself with friends, and in the spirit of Neil Breen we are publishing those but at one level fail to understand their point. She’s twenty-five years old and lives life to the fullest. So what?
Normally we wouldn’t bother making reference to any of the hate campaign but we feel they shed a lot of light on the poisonous culture of Star News Group.
The good news is that if sales go any lower, particularly in the south-east which has been the heart of the financial strength of the company, it’s expected that the company could be put into the hands of receivers who would probably have a much more positive attitude to industrial relations than publicly undermining their own staff.
Definitely a party girl. I can smell it.
In WA you get mandatory sentencing for being a party girl and preferably at the police lock up. But having said that, I hear the CCC investigators want their share of the fun too as they are rumoured to be sick of screwing over the same old faces.
She seems a respectable young lady in my eyes. One capable of keeping her clothes on while pole dancing. Certainly if ever the she needs a lift home from one of her low-key social events, my passenger door is always open, my engine revving.
I would have thought that the combination of yesterdays article and to printed photos suggets no more than that Ms Meehan is capable of being demonstrating both professional ethics and a propensity for having fun (and arguably no more than posing for a camera).
Is it such a stretch to imagine the two are incompatible?
I would also take some convincing that being a ‘party girl with a drinking problem’, if correct, is somehow inconsistent with being a competent and principled journo….
The personal lives of journalists and in fact all Australians is just that: personal and private. The fact that people like to go out and have fun once in a while id irrelevant and has nothing to do with their work or the fact that they are honest, hard working and dedicated to doing their job. What a disgusting attack on a remarkable and talented journalist. Shame shame…i think some need to turn to real reporting and events
The only well-sourced thing that with anything to do with Vexnews is Landeryou’s jocks every time he passes KFC.
Mel must be a dud root as well.
Why is she stripping on a pole? Is she forced to moon-light because wages are so low at SNG?
Nothing untoward has gone on there. His shorts are still on.
Monkey does not look like he/she consented. That’s not right.
In America, this wench would be a crack ho.
Here, we give her a degree from LaTrobe and a desk-job playing “journalist” at a local council.
We are the land of milk & honey…
The accusations about me and the toilet are completely false.
There is a lot of lying going on.
G. Howe.
It is clear to me now that this is all a big joke! I now see that this story and this website cannot be taken seriously! Slow news week? Haha i am very surprised by the amount of people who have been sucked into this desperate attempt for attention! Are people actually upset by this? Surely not!
Is that photo from Dubbo zoo by the way? Good zoo that one! My favourite animal would have to be the cheetah, i saw both cubs last January!
This tangent is more news worthy! Sorry Vexnews, better luck next time!
Carl Wulff had some good dirt on the Thomas family. Ask him…
nicknamed Smellissa
She’s a big ‘un.
now we know where star pick up there their journos from
journos
from
Benny is trading up from mel i would say
mel is a party girl – typical of Ben he has a knack of attracting loose women.
we are all sick of mel complaining about having to go to boring council meetings.
mel leave Ben alone.
Ben trade mel in for the guerrilla just as fat and ugly but at least the guerrilla is loyal and doesnt whine.
So I was reading Vexnews, “Dark forces within Star News Group attack their young reporter who was just doing what she was told” and i got in one little fight and my mom got scared, She said ‘You’re movin’ with your auntie and uncle in Bel Ai’
shame star shame mel shame shame shame shame
vexnews excellent work for exposing “defamation racket inc”
mel i hope you are a good pole dancer because ethical journo you are not.
not
i know that girl from somewhere
with this journo – i could see that star has been scraping the bottom of the barrel.
i know times are tough but where did star pick this shanky ho up from
you can dance on my pole anytime mel
somewhere
I love plump girls, the ‘bigger the cushion the better the pushin’.
Little Fatty would love to entertain that girl.
she is a better journo than the previous melissa at the star
Mel is not a bad person but she is a little bit naive and, well, hate to say this, but – ah – lets just say she is lacking a moral compus this is reflected both in her work (her silly article doesnt surprise me) and the way she conducts her self in her social life.
i do feal sorry for her because she is not ready to take on the responsibilty of reporting serious local government issues.
But then again my experience with the star is that management just doesnt care.
does anyone have a picture of maria sampey pole dancing
mel is my shanky ho – if you want to have a good time with her you must see me first.
Stinky.
Mel is a very nice person – why are you people so unkind to mel – she is taking this badly please stop assassinating her character she is only young – she has a big future ahead of her – she will be a very good journo in the future.Give her some latitude her current employers demand the type of crap that was reported. She genuinely regrets doing that story but people need to understand that she did not write the heading and the story itself was cut and edited to turn it into a hatchet job.
Ironically, mel thinks that pinar is the best value on that council and the rest of them are retarded old farts.
please go easy on mel she meant no harm.
i can confirm that mel is a dirty skanky little ho.
she found a proffession that suits her morals
Melissa’s friend 17.55 in that case she should simply say sorry and spill the beens on the rag
ugly stuff.
I’ve just cracked a FAT.
Does the nice young lady require a lift home?
Ollie has always told me, I am very good with my ‘pole’.
Melissa’s friend how dare you plead for mercy on behalf of your friend – you blame her stupidity on her age and claim that vex news and the comments that followed have assassinated her character. Well after reading her article – I can honestly say that she deserves everything she gets. I am sick of journalists thinking they have the right to assasinate other peoples characters but cry foul when they get one back.
Well done vexnews keep up the good work in keeping people like party girl Melissa honest
look at all you pathetic toe rags! how would you like it if this was your mate, sister or daughter?
big shots behind your computer screens and remain anonymous pfft
you all know her name so let me know yours – go on i dare ya
Given the dud incumbents, I will make a great MLC for South Eastern or Eastern Metro.

the point is “who cares” mel has not gave no consideration to any of those things you ask us to consider when she wrote that shit sheat on the young Mayor of Dandenong.
As a victim of shoddy journalism i understand how much it hurts when lies are written.
As a friend of mels you should advise her to pull her head in and resist the pressure from her bosses to damage her own integrity by writting nonsonse based on the word of people who as vex news reports are said to be mentally retarded.(talk about exploiting the disabled)
I dont always agree with this blog but the fact is, mel has caused her self a lot of damage with that story.
Every political journo in this state and the canberra press galary click onto this site to get a feel for what is happening behind the seens in Vic politics. featuring on this site in the way she has- that is,unethical journalism and seedy photo’s will damage her cred and reputation. You should advise her to apologise to her victim.
She is now where no one wants to be on vex news radar – and being a diligent reader of this site i feel that vex news has a lot more ammunition up his sleeve – if vex feels that mel slips again – i have a feeling vex will let loose.
This has to be a joke. I don’t see any problem with any of these photos. These are from here private life, shame on the person who brought up her private life into her professional life. If she didn’t have any photos like this she would have probably been labled a loner. Also there is no proof from these photos that she is an unprofessional, or that she is doing anything that is unethical, or morally wrong.
This is a naughty picture, I better ring my wife and ask her what I should do with this filthyness.
I don’t like girls like that, I prefer very young Thai girls. But I am still confused about ‘what team’ I want to bat for.
you cant get caught acting like a two bob slut and expect to be taken seriously by your readers.
how many people will naw take what mel has got to say seriously, how many people will trust her judgment when she writes a story. with these phot’s she has demonstrated to the world that she lives a deprived and sleezy lifestyle based on that she has no moral authority to write about any serious issue in our community.
as for her boy friend sex with animals is a cruel act that should be condemmed not proudly displayed. Her boyfriend Ben is simulating anal sex with a guerrila for gods sake how sick.
So how will high powered CEO’s ministers,MPs, councillors and high powered business people that she sould be dealing with going to take her seriously. She has lost her moral authority – as i said before she comes across as a cheap slut.
at the very least mel ought to stay away from the hatched job – because mel doing a hatched job now will be a laugh
Maybe Foxy Ross can’t beat the Mac, but he could take someone like Gordo Rich Phillips to the cleaners.
Since I have had successful corrective surgery to enlarge my infantile penis.
Maybe Melissa Meehan will want to see it and write a story about it?
My ears just picked up, did someone just mention anal sex?
Was it you Chrissy Pyne or was it Ollie?
i agree with the above this reporter’s boyfriend needs councilling.
animals are living beings they cannot be objectified in tis way- anal sex with a guerrila is no joke. cruelty to animals is no joke.
melissa and her perverted boyfriend ought to grow up.
I cannot believe the amount of careless personal attacks against this poor girl. You cannot say you are innocent, probably the majority of people on here have done things similar, if not the same as what Melissa has. And how many of you people actually know her personally to say the things you say? As far as i know Melissa is a centered, smart and well rounded girl who is actually following her dreams to a career that she worked damn hard to get to, and some random decided to pass on her personal pictures to kill her dream spirit, and what has that achieved for them? For the people that know Melissa, are the only ones that can give an honest opinion about the person she is and what she does, and from a personal perspective, i know for a fact that she is not a quote “crack ho” nor “shanky ho” and far from it.. And as for her Boyfriend, Since when did he become involved? And what gave you all the right to judge him on a picture he obviously took as a joke.. For those who were quick to snoop around someones personal pictures to find it, then make sarcastic points about the picture itself when it actually had nothing to do with the situation at hand? Sad really to find any chance you people can to poke fun at anybody.. As they say, Striking high, and yet untrue facts about people on the internet only reflects the person who typed them. God get over it and find something else to do.. Sad bunch of low-lifes..
youse have it all wrong. 104 is working on a plan now to put foxy in a marginal seat, even if it means bumping off deadweights like heidi victoria or jason wood
Ross Pox is a dud, just look how successful he was in Isaacs? Even after all his lies he failed big time!
He is not a dud, he is a star. Way better than most of he people holding our marginal seats. he can inject some real fire power into the parliament. he could probably even win us some seats, like Forest Hill.
What chair did the Gorilla sit in? I have a lustful urge to sniff the seat of the chair
Ross Fox is dishonest and a blatant liar.
Where did he really live during the last federal election?
Why did he ’sex up’ his employment history and qualifications?
If this is this the best the Libs can come with – what a JOKE!!
ANON 23.17 you write – and i quote
“Melissa is a centered, smart and well rounded girl who is actually following her dreams to a career that she worked damn hard to get to, and some random decided to pass on her personal pictures to kill her dream”
Well that is all very well but what about Melissa’s victim. A young lady about the same age I guess. Now lets apply the same comments to Melissa’s victim.
(Melissa) Pinar is a centered, smart and well rounded girl who is actually following her dreams to a career that she worked damn hard to get to, and some random decided to (pass on her personal pictures) do a hatched job on her to kill her dream.
Melissa needs to understand that just as she has worked hard get to where she is – other people have worked equally as hard. Melissa also needs to understand that she has a powerful weapon at her disposal which requires a great deal of responsibility and ethical behavior.
Manufacturing a story based on the incoherent ramblings of June Whitton, who is a local nutter and has been institutionalized on a number of occasions, is unethical on many levels. Making the story front page with the heading “Mayor is a Dud” is an act of pure bastardry that deserves the close scrutiny of vex news. Why is the Mayor a dud because a local psycho who has no platform says she has never seen the Mayor around.
Vex News has been measured in its response to the hatched job Mel has done – Mel should now cop it sweat and learn from her mistakes – or she will be destined to write for a sleezy rag like the star for the rest of her life.
That gives no right to abuse and throw personal remarks onto somebody who chooses to make the most of her life. Everybody does stupid things, does not give anyone else the right to defame them and abuse them on the internet. Show a little compassion. This is nothing more than a slaughter fest on someone and those pictures are from her personal life and should have nothing to do with her job at hand. For someone to mask her abilities by humiliating her on the internet has set her up for a lifetime of bullshit that could potentially stuff her life up forever. And does it benefit anyone here by doing that? No. There is absolutely no reason to throw personal attacks on melissa. Its uncalled for and unnessesary.
What’s new about the star doing hatchett jobs on labor aligned councillors including a Mayor. Everyone knows this conservtive paper has an agenda to discredit anyone associated with the labor party I’m order to assist in the election of liberal leaning elected representatives so once in favour can’t send thousands of advertising dollars to this debt ridden organisation. Look at the work of their so called senior editors who are as corupt as Old Joh from QLD. This young little Journo is not to blame, but she really should have more ethics than to simply bend over and take it from the likes of Elizabeth Hart or Garry Howe. But than again, she must like it up her chocolate star by the looks of her boyfriend in that photo.
Vex News sponsors sexism – again.
It’s painfully clear none of you people understand the journalistic process. If two public figures who are on council approach a journalist and say the mayor is a dud and guilty of dereliction of duty then THAT IS NEWS AND YOU HAVE A DUTY TO REPORT IT. If you do fail to pursue the story then you are a bigger dud than the bogus mayor. However, you must give the dud mayor right of reply, which Mel did superbly (in fact the story was very well balanced). Congratulations, Mel, a previous poster was right saying journalists from Melbourne to Canberra read this venomous blog and they know that anyone who has been as roundly targetted as yourself by its author is a worthwhile professional. Look at some of the other journos to attract this type of attention – Royce Millar etc. All fine journos with excellent careers.
As a reader of all of Dandenong’s local papers I can’t believe what I’m reading.
It clearly says that the Star is digging deeper than any other paper and is hitting at the core of this town and council’s party political problems.
Keep going Mel, it’s obvious to common people like myself that this blog has the ear of the mayor and her cohorts, so in a way you’re revealing much more to us all about her true character, rather than anything anyone could imply from a 20-something’s party photos!
My friends and I know who we *won’t* be voting for next election…

What a lot of whingers and name callers. I was taught if you can’t say something nice about a person, shutup. Give the girl a go. Star weekly newspaper is the best in the area and I would not miss reading it.
Emaybe
hey bravo you must really be a dumb if you believe the news, peasant!
Chinup @ 08.22:
Vex isn’t attacking her, it’s supporting her in the face of pressure from a dodgy boss. And the pics make her look hot!
P.S Soon my internet censorship death star will be online and all you rebel scum will cringe before the family-friendly power of Darth Conroy.
I think everyone here should take a good look at themselves.
The article written seems to have performed its purpose perfectly.
I’m no journalist or political member of any sort (unlike everyone else here), but the article has created debate and probably sold papers,
everyone here goes on about free speech but as soon as someone doesn’t like what is written it seems they spend the rest of the day searching facebook for PRIVATE photos.
I cant access them so how can you?
Also there seems to be a LITTLE bit of censorship going on, previously there was a comment about Pinar and her boyfriend ? seems to be removed now?
I cant find it anyway? Does this therefore indicate the credible source of this shoddy news site, Just cause a person holds a powerful position does not therefore mean that he/she is credible?
Maybe everyone here should start reading there news from more credible sources?
For instance ones that articles aren’t littered with bullshit and explaining that the sources are extremely credible, If your sources are credible then why do you feel the need to justify it so bad?
You should all stop sitting in dark rooms at night stalking people on facebook and getting of to it? Your sick!
WTF! “Vex isn’t attacking her, it’s supporting her!” How? By printing unsourced allegations and naming her without giving her a chance to reply. (Did you even try to contact her? I doubt it.) Then you post pics from Facebook (?) as illustrations and provide a forum for people to insult her.
Talk about censorship, why didn;t my last comment make it through?
Aren’t we allowed to reveal your sources?
So that gets through, why dont you just post the other comment?
Lets try again

Vex called the pics “supposedly embarrassing…but..She’s twenty-five years old and lives life to the fullest. So what?”
i.e. supporting her. Read the article.
I would like to do a ’study tour’ of her plump voluptuous body.
Melissa Watcher! That photo looks like __________ with Jake the Snake!
What?! Colin Brooks or Homer Simpson?!
F*** every single one of you
Send me Melissa’s boyfriend to Athens i will teachhim Greek style its better than guerrila style
chinup 8.22 if you think June whitton is lolcal identity you have rocks in your head. June whitton is is a person who has severe psychological problems and has been institutionized on a number occassions. yet Melissa used this person as the source for hatched job. June is no local identity the what position does she hold. Mel needs to stop scaping the bottom of the barrel and stop talking to retards like alan gordon, sampey and her pimp peter jabbour
pole dancing
sex with monkeys
drinking from breasts
sitting naked on toilet
this reporter and her boyfriend are sick sick sick sick
this melissa has no authority to report on anything.
Anonymous 15:12, you are a smart cookie aren’t you! If she isn’t a local identity then you wouldn’t know who she was! Duh!!!! Lot’s of people suffer psychological problems throughout their lives. This shouldn’t preclude them from having an opinion, should it?
The common wisdom in Dandy is that the mayor is useless and the fact that she is so heartily backed by Vexnews regulars shows why: factional Labor hacks are voted in on the strength of the party machine, they do nothing unless it benefits members of their faction and then they all pat each other on the back and do it all again…..PATHETIC!!!!
“We should emphasise that – to avoid putting Meehan in a situation where her job could be in jeopardy – that we did not speak with Meehan and do not intend to do so. But our story was very well sourced.”
you guys are a joke…
and all you fat, pasty-faced losers sitting in dark rooms making comments on people they have never met… go outside and see the world… you’ll find those people outside are having too good a time to piss and moan about what others are doing… whether it be drinking and dancing… or fucking around with a fucking statue!
i feel sick to my stomach you hacks are really willing to ruin a young girls career…
im sure with a name against these pathetic ANONYMOUS stories i could find pics on Facebook of the authors daughter within minutes… engaging in the same behaviour… good thing im not that sad
Leave Mel alone!
When did having a night out constitute as something bad??
I also think the person who wrote this article should be reporting much more important things (like murder, poverty, rape, war, etc) than Facebook-stalking some journalist. Idiot.
Atleast these photos she looks stunning… Noone can deny that she is a gorgeous grl. But as if her looks or pirvate life have anything to do with what she does for a career. A person who has a career in politics is always going to get some bad press. A person who chooses journalism as a career hasn’t chosen to be in the public as an individual.
I will still read her articles.
what melissa does is not journalism – since when did running a story based on the rantings of person who has deep psychological issues. June whitton the supply of mel’s quotes for the article is a very disturbed lady. she has history mental ilness and is mildly retarded – so what happened to ethics in journalism.
once you cross that line you are fair game as far as i am concerned.
well done vexnews keep a watch on party girl mel
Mike Refone 20.12 you must be Ben or Mels mother because no objective observer believes that Mel looks stunning.
Numerous contributors to this site have remarked on what a promiscuous tart she looks like but never stunning.
Mel has lost all credibility. She has been duped by a couple of morans into writing a story.
Don’t forget this site is monitored by high powered media types and I reckon they have already put a black mark against her name.
Mel better hope that TRUTH newspaper re-emerges. Mel and Truth would be a good fit. Mel could be the page three girl and the reporter at the same time
March 20 14:35
No I think its Homer doh. Dumb enough
Brooks would be having cold sweats if they said it was him.
Although….
I wish I was the Gorilla.
can chris pearce let me know when he finds out who mentioned anal sex
i worked for an opposition local rag and previously encountered melissa a bit. i’ve always thought she was one of the better star reporters, and frankly, the whole thing to me reads like someone else got hold of the copy after she filed and worked it into a hack job – it is something star does surprisingly regularly across their whole group.
As for this site publishing photos of melissa doing what most young women like to do (have fun) i really don’t see what you were trying to achieve. And frankly, for so many posters to be slagging her off for enjoying herself after work, well then, i’m guessing all these individuals must model their lives on that of ned flanders.
Gee I am a real success story, three times failure.
I will go to Queensland and I will deliver the LNP victory!
But only if the Gorilla cums as well, I do hope he is a boy.
The LNP needs the services of a great administrator.
The LNP needs a great numbers man.
woohoo. The ALP are back in Qld.
i have got a surprise for you
i have got a big surprise for you
I wonder if Lord Lesley Twentytonneguts HRH, the other great publicity seeker in Australia, would care to do a nude couple photo shoot with me?
Les Twentyman, OAM s in intensive care and you are a scumbag Andrew.
did i hear nude photo – Ben and i and the guerilla will be in that provided i can also write the article
Did someone mention Publicity, that is enough for me to rise again and throw away life support.
I wonder if Les would be interested in a true third force effort?
He definitely is a gorgeous honey!
Sir Lesley has the same comfortable build as me, I wonder if he wears chantilly lace g-strings like me? Dean Mighell certain loves to wear them I hear.
Thanks for that Inga, but too much information…
By the way, please be assured that we progressives certainly don’t think you are a honey.
Quite the contrary you adipose old bovine!!!
Natasha do you require a ‘lift’ home?
My dear, dear boy…
Despite your hair extensions and fitted suit, you are still a plodding copper and Kellogs executive.
This revelation should answer your question (out of the question)…
The true Liberal left are far less forgiving that old Ted, and we will delight in your continuing irrelevance for years to come.
We hereby declare you to be an “anti-honey” – and therfore you are anathema.
Lift home? Barge Pole – LOL.
Perhaps we could share a drink together?
My dear, dear boy…
What I drink, you certainly cannot afford.
Perhaps you should invite that simpleton, Wendy Lovellot?
Natasha, you are fat and ugly, and on your admission, have already been despolied – presumably a long time ago by someone form the SL of the ALP.
I withdraw my offer to give you a lift home – you dirty wench!
Why dont you ask me RDR i will pole dance for you and write a puff piece on you in the star
But I am more than willing to have a lunge at your Crack, Natasha. I have thrown my leg over much worse over the years.
Your on mellisa, as long as Fatty Doyle has not ‘entertained’ you recently.
My poor boy,
Your command of the English language is appropriate for your vey average station in life…
A despoiler is not one who is despoiled… rather one who despoils. I would use the technical english language descriptions, but alas, pearls before swine.
I am not fat! As you know I am a gorgeous small ‘l’ liberal godess, and not available to the likes of you!!! Seriously “anti-honey”.
Your withdrawal is my relief!!!!
RDR – stop making those offers to drive lasses home. They will get you in to trouble.
Whats wrong with me RDR?
We all know that are fat, NTD, as there is no such thing as a “gorgeous small “l” liberal goddess”!
Not only are you fat but you are also a liar!
Aren’t you the ‘town bike’ of the small ‘l’ fazione?
If you offered me a lift RDR, I would now refuse… D squared would not be happy with your antics! P.S. NTD is absolutely gorgeous and not fat (she did not do the Lap Band as I did) and she has stuck to her beliefs.
Wendy it might have to be you tonight, as I am more toey than a roman sandle.
What else can I say about D squared apart from they are ’self entertainers’?
Dear anathema,
You are a tragic sexual offender.
Stop with pretensions to those way, way above you. It is very sad to read.
What does your long suffering wife think of all this blogging non-sense RDR? Oblivious?
Thats Greek girls for you!
Natasha The Despoiler is a lunatic lefty – not even RDR would want to go there.
He may be willing to do anything for love, but he would he would not do that!
Natasha, please come to my House of Sleaze.
I am sick of ‘greek’, I am longing for a bit of pink from a young liberal lady.
Settle right down boys…
I am not a lefty, nor a rightie..
I am representative of an unheard majority of progressive, normal people.
We elected Kev, and will unelect him when we choose to do so. We are the reason why the Borg in Queensland was NOT irresistable!
Please be nice, lest I pronounce you … well you know that would be extreme.
Try Daisy’s on an over 30’s night Bobafett and Meatloaf – more your speed I’m sure.
Am I missing out on something here.
A “friend” just called me and I am ready for action Meatloaf.
P.S. How much do you charge Meatloaf?
Natasha – settle down. Have a cocoa and go to bed, darling!
PS I have lever voted for the Liberal Party in my life and never will.
Oh honey… thankyou!
Sometimes I do need reminding.
It won’t be cocoa though, as I am on a strict diet. Was in Canberra this week, and some old chums said I had stacked on the kilos!!!
It was true, but how rude.
If I am to join Malcolm in his new Party thing… well I need to look good, don’t I?
O dear – I am a bit drunk after celebrating Anna Bligh’s victory.
I have never voted for the Liberal Party in my life and never will.
Here come the fake Natashas again!
The real celebrants are the 50% of the old QLD Lberal Party who refused to join the LNP!
Conservatism is NOT the way ahead.
I am the real Natasha, and yes, I used to vote Liberal religiously.
Spoke to Malcolm and other noteables and do not do that thing anymore!
I like natasha.
Honeys, I am so drunk that I am now succumbing to the delusion that I once voted Liberal.
Ha ha ha.
The very thought of voting for the Liberal Party is anathema to me.
If I was drunk, I would still be voting Liberal.
Thankfully, I am quite sober and rational.
Like tens of thousands, once but no more.
Does anyone for a moment believe that left wing scum like me has ever voted for the Liberal Party?
Honeys, I am the real Natasha. It is true that I never voted Liberal, but I have voted for One Nation and Australians Against Further Immigration. But never again.
After many years battling the bottle, I am now sober and will only vote for the Greens.
Does anyone have a delicious treat for me to borrow? I am feeling a little peckish.
That looks like a young drunk girl I can take advantage of
Yet another testament to BS which comprises this site
Having worked with Melissa, I can tell you the comments here are a travesty of her character. She is a hard-working, dedicated and discerning journalist.
By all means express your angst. But the gratuitous display of her snaps is absolutely tawdry.
That front page may have been a dud but if Melissa or her employers knew how much havoc it wreaked within the four walls of Greater Dandenong Council they would be breaking open the Krug(I am sure Melissa would like that)at what may unleash the story of the month? quarter? year? The fallout from a false front line has been journalistically astonishing.
What I don’t understand is what does journalism have to do with Mel’s private life. All of these comments are most likely left by people who have exactly the same photos of themselves having fun with their mates when their NOT working. How about instead of everyone attacking someone they don’t even know they go out and find something that they think is more important to write about.
I don’t understand why people aren’t allowed to have a social life and a career? This so called ‘party girl’ has still managed to produce some fantastic articles and maintain the respect of newspapers and people alike. Ministers are not ministers 24/7, they like to do drink to (WOW SHOCK). Teachers are not Teaches 24/7 they also have a life outside of work. I think these images show us that a person can have a life, have some fun and also work. Therefore, who ever has written this article and whoever has published these pictures are naive, ignorant and obviously neglect to have a life outside their job…and i feel sorry for you. Get a grip! get over it! Go attack and report on something worthwhile!
As a first time reader of this article and all the comments that have ensued I have realised two things:
1. people need to leave the poor girl alone- everyone is entitled to a private life that is no one’s business
and
2. A lot of you people have WAYYYY too much time on your hands. Maybe I’m not as “cool” as a lot of you, but writing stupid things for fun in response to an article is pretty lame to me. Get friends and get a life. Who reads stuff like this more than once anyone. I can’t help but laugh at the pathetic lives you must be living. HAHAHAHA
Monkey see Monkey do. (Or has someone else already said that?)
