News Ltd gets caught stoking Turnbull's beat-up

Today the Herald Sun online is trumpeting Kevin Rudd left out of George W. Bush photographs.

Telling the world that there is a problem with official G20 snaps on the White House website:

But his photo with Mr Rudd, who received a visibly frosty reception from the President, has somehow gone missing. The move appears to confirm a presidential snub of Mr Rudd over the leaking of a phone conversation he had with Mr Bush.

There is a small problem with trying this hard to support the Leader of the Opposition's beat-up of the alleged undiplomatic comment made by the Prime Minister about his counterpart, the US President.

And here it is.















The Herald Sun also went on to assert that; The only other leader omitted from the photo was Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.

Wrong again if one does a simple search of the site as this shows.

Mmmmmm IDK, the body language obsessives on the intertubes will have a field day with this picture ... Kevin's smile looks forced b/c he knows George doesn't really like him ... see how careful they are not to touch ... Kev didn't score an invitation to the ranch ... I reckon they can run with this non-story for another week yet.
