Last night, as the coalition’s ETS party room meeting stretched into its eighth hour, there were hordes of people around Australia desperate to know the outcome of their ETS debate along with the status of Malcolm Turnbull’s leadership. But where to turn? The newspapers were 18 hours old and the new ones six hours away, there were no up-to-date stories on the papers’ websites, and there was nothing on the telly for non-cable subscribers (after 7.30 Report finished).
Thank goodness for Twitter.
