The Fairfax journalists strike appears not to have affected the quality of its homepage images. These three are currently on the SMH homepage, giving the website an unprecedented “batshit insane” rating of 60%. Remember, the sillier the story, the less flattering the photo. No campaign glossies for Mittens. Intern special! When you don’t have a picture, collage the keywords. Today there was a story about a Russian millionaire throwing money out a window as passersby brawled over it. In a case of what I’m dubbing “anti-serendipity”, the Herald has managed to make the right image for the wrong story. 3:57 pm • 31 May 2012

My take on the Craig Thomson photo SMH took down earlier today. Maybe they thought better of it. 1:20 pm • 21 May 2012 • 1 note
