Readers of the esteemed Murdoch tabloid that is the Daily Telegraph have been left wondering this week whether the newspaper may potentially be leaning slightly towards the NSW Liberal Party.

This comes after a month of opinion pieces disguised as news stories have graced the front pages of the paper in an indication that there might be some sort of desire to get Gladys Berejiklian elected as Premier.

82-year-old grandfather of 15 Gerry Atrick explained to our reporters from the lifeless harbour capital that he is starting to think that the Tele might be pushing an agenda.

“Yeah, I popped on the tablet today, which never seems to work properly, to scroll through the breaking news and I noticed the online site was covered in Vote Liberal ads again,” Atrick said.

“It does seem a bit fishy that all the negative Labor stories are set to the backdrop of NSW Liberal Team.”

“But I guess it’s just election advertising, I’m sure they’ll run Labor ads tomorrow.”

“And that story they ran about the cat picking the winner of the election through bowls of food was a perfect example of even-handed reporting.”

“It’s good that they’ve tried to make a bit of an effort to balance the out the effect of the state-funded left-wing media organisation that is the ABC. It really annoys me how the public broadcaster asks people on the right as well as the left questions that they don’t want to answer.”

We contacted the Daily Telegraph for comment on the matter but were informed that everyone was too busy fixing their SuperCoach teams for the weekend.
