The Front Pages Of Today’s Papers Are In, And They’re Predictably Puntastic

Disclaimer: if you’re sick of all this ‘politics stuff’ already, we’d recommend not opening social media today. Or talking to anyone. Or leaving the house. Or buying any newspapers. Just stay in bed, maybe.

We were honest to glob terrified about how our news-in-paper-form would look this morning, after heavy-lidded journos pushed through 12 HOURS of #libspill yesterday.

Pronunciation flubs were committed, camera equipment pointed in entirely wrong directions and more than one yawn was stifled as media worked ’round the clock to bring us the latest news, until Australia‘s new overlord, PM Malcolm Turnbull put his foot down and sent everyone to bed.

But they’re actually not bad. Not bad at all*. GREAT JOB, YOU GUYS.

* Except ‘Turnstile’, that one is shite.

Here’s a round-up of today’s ~iconic~ front pages:

And of course, what would a mainstream media roundup be without checking in on ol’ mate, Rupert Murdoch. We’ll give you a hint: he’s not a happy bloke.

Sad to see such a decent man as Abbott toppled. Now Turnbull needs a November election before Labor sacks Shorten.

Ooooof. Poor Rupes :'(

UPDATE: Nice one, NT News.
