I think this is the link http://sixtyminutes.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=610556 but it might not be working, I've had difficulties It is a MASSIVE shame there can't be some sort of division between genuine car enthusiasts and hoons in the media. Although I love 60 minutes every week as they do usually do the story from both sides, tonight I wont be holding my breath. without a doubt street racing and dumb, dangerous and their should be penalties it is just a shame that stories like these reflect badly on our culture and scene even if we dont street race. (yes I have seen what is in my sig, it is a joke) Well thought Id just give everyone the heads up hopefully it wont be 14 minutes of P plate bashing, Modified car bashing, one sided journalism 7:30pm tonight, channel 9 This post has been edited by Street Tuned: Aug 9 2008, 11:46 PM -------------------- Go to school, Get good grades, Get a Job, Go to Work, Get Married, Have some Kids, Pay your Taxes, Pay your Bills, Watch your Tv, Follow Fashion, Act Normal and Consume all you can,

If you watched the previews carefully, you'd notice this appears to be a story shot from the US (and as the link states). |

I call it... young people bashing... that's what it is. Yes perhaps young drivers who do this sort of thing are the majority however... it's very biast. Every time one sided stories like this aires... it contains similar content of the previous report and the one before that and the one before that. They will always utilise the same material from the previous stories or some historic YOUTUBE media. *clap clap* for google and youtube... you can make a story about anything off the internet |

actually if any news source is going to be as un-bias as possible, itll probly be 60 minutes, so give it the benefit of doubt. usually it takes a more professional approach to reporting |

Unfortunately 95% of car related stories in the media are bad, and clearly... judging by the video footage.. it will be slightly negative feedback for the car community. still, ill be watching *Looks at time* bye bye |
