This time it’s spot the missing word (or phrase) from this BBC report about “an Australian politician”, who has been forced to resign because he likes techno (fair enough, I say). For a clue check these reports from the Standard, Mail and Metro – or this one from the Independent. Or, er, this one from the Guardian, courtesy of the AP; or this one from Reuters; or this from the Times…
Thanks to our anonymous commenter who picked up on this.
UPDATE: Thanks to the prompting of “Anon” in the comments, it seems we have reason to be grateful for the BBC’s report on this after all. For when Morris Iemma, the Labor New South Wales State Premier, was forced to resign last week it appears the Beeb’s website didn’t report it at all. Readers relying on the BBC were left puzzling over a single line referring to it in this blog entry a few days later. There was, of course, no mention of his political affiliation.

I think ‘facts’ are allowed. As long as they are lies. And approved.
