Wartawan gosip akhbar The Sydney Morning Herald yang mencetuskan berita sensasi terhadap isteri Perdana Menteri Malaysia, Rosmah Mansor, berikutan pendedahan permbelian barangan berjenama mahal di butik milik rakannya, Carl Kapp, di Sydney, Australia, kini dikhabarkan tidak berani datang ke negara kita.Dalam satu pesanan melalui laman mkiroblog Twitter , Hornery menulis:
@hornery I wont be holidaying in Malaysia anytime soon. Ive been hung, drawn and quartered in print there. Shoot the messenger when the truth hurts?
@hornery Saya tidak akan bercuti di Malaysia dalam waktu terdekat. Saya "digantung, dipotretkan dan dikerat dari akhbar di sana. Serang pemberi maklumat bila kebenaran menyakitkan?
Apa yang Hornery maksudkan adalah kesemua akhbar dan media arus perdana telah menekannya serta memburuk-burukannya sebaik saja berita tersebut disiarkan ke seluruh dunia.
Tambahnya lagi, tuduhan terhadap kredibilitinya sebagai seorang wartawan paling teruk di negaranya hanyalah dibuat oleh pihak yang menggunakan indentiti orang lain yang sebenarnya menghabiskan masanya di dalam penjara!
Dia juga menafikan dirinya seorang gay yang cuba difitnah kununnya dia ada hubungan dengan Ketua Pembangkang, Anwar Ibrahim, padahal sebenarnya gambar yang disiarkan secara meluas di blog pro Umno-APCO sebenarnya rakan baiknya, Scott Weston (gambar bawah, kanan) semasa mereka menghadiri sebuah majlis tiga tahun lalu.
Walaupun mengaku rakan baiknya itu seorang gay, tetapi dia menafikan dirinya sendiri sebagai seorang gay dan mencabar pihak yang menuduhnya supaya membuktikan dirinya berperangai sedemikian.
Pendedahan Andrew membuktikan adanya cubaan mengugutnya diapa-apakan sekiranya dia datang ke Malaysia bagi "mengorek" rahsia pembelian dan skandal yang menggemparkan seluruh dunia ini.
Pereka fesyen dan pemilik butik Carl Kapp dijadualkan datang ke negara ini pada awal bulan Februari namun berikutan pendedahan skandal ini ada kemungkinan terpaksa dibatalkan.
Andrew terkenal di Australia sehingga digelar Ratu Gosip berikutan kemampuannya membongkar skandal orang ternama dan artis sejak menyertai akhbar itu 12 tahun lalu.
Sama-sama kita nantikan penjelasan seterusnya tidak lama lagi. JALAN PULANG
Australian "Gay" Gossip Queen Is Jealous?
Failure to learn the hard lesson for counting on white-men with no credibility as defend witnesses in Anwar’s case, the opposition once again turned to a white-journalist with no credibility, for help. This time, to demonize the PM’s wife, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor.
Andrew Hornery, Sydney Morning Herald’s journalist wrote that Datin Seri Rosmah had spent RM325,000 on a shopping spree in Australia.
The motive of such writings is unclear but it is purely in line with the opposition’s strategy to promote Datin Rosmah as a lavish woman in order to instill hatred among the people towards her, and eventually Datuk Seri Najib.
Therefore, we can’t help but perceive Andrew’s writings as an act of offering a hand to help spread the Malaysian’s oppositions’ agenda.
Or maybe he was just doing his job that is spreading rumours since he is actually a gossip journalist.
Not just that, he had once been ‘crowned’ as the worst gossip journalist in Australia. On 9th October 2009, in a website that features the worst journalist in Australia, http://www.australiasworstjournalist.com.au/media/newspaper/sydney-morning-herald/1-andrew-hornery, a comment on him wrote, “Numerous factual errors. Andrew Hornery, unable to transcribe accurately factual matters or deliberately engages in falsehoods to degrade his subject, and heighten his vitriole. Persons contacted by this dishonest journalist should not afford him an interview, as quotations will be altered to suit the journalist’s purpose.”
For your information, Andrew is also called the Gossip Queen of Australia for his immature writings despite his high ambition to write about serious issues such as murder or corruption and the like.
But why is he called the Queen and not the King of gossip when he is actually a guy? Could it be because he is not a real, straight guy but a gay instead? Well, Andrew had no problem admitting this in the open through his twitter. And if you surf the net looking for facts on Andrew, you would find that he has written many articles on gay rights and condemning those who ‘discriminate’ gays.
