Not just me (again)

I see that Crikey has been keeping count of the extraordinary number of words The Australian has devoted to Bill Leak.

I guessed, in my last post about this, that Leak had been eulogised 49 times.  I was actually pretty close - I think it must be up to 44 now.  (Crikey cites 43, but there might be another one today.)

Surely Leak himself would be finding this over the top...

Very over the top

Not to worry Steve. When you die nobody will eulogise you. The only media coverage it gets will be what your family pay for in the obituaries.

Yes, we all long for scores and scores of words of media coverage when we die, hey Anon?
