If you love sensationalism with 0 hard evidence, just pick up the delightful Herald Sun newspaper. I'm sure it will endow you with all the information you will ever need.

Huh? I thought there were a few statistics, credentialed opinions... plus it's a pretty 'anecdotal' topic if you get my meaning.

No newspaper is immune to sensationalism. The Herald Sun is pretty much crippled by it though.

Caroline Wilson's sporting articles in the age are also riddled with this type of journalism.
