Australian attitudes towards Schapelle Corby
Logic and emotion compel people to form opinions and sometimes take action. The Schapelle Corby saga caused people around the world, who had never met Schapelle, to voice strong opinions about her case.
Media in Australia is a business, just like media everywhere else, including Baliblog. Attracting readers and selling advertising is as relevant for TV, as with newspapers or the internet. There is a tremendous amount of support for Schapelle in Australia, though not here in Bali. Many of the Aussie expats here think she’s guilty. Now the dust has settled and the tears have dried up, maybe some of the folks back home are taking a second look at their opinion, on the Schapelle Corby case.
