thanks for forwarding this - will have to look at Crikey more often.
I was one of the apparently non-existent marine scientists who was involved in 
preparation of the NT's Marine Protected Areas strategy......
Sounds like the NT News is keeping up its reputation.

Great article from Birding-Aus regular, Bob Gosford, outlining the campaign
for and against marine parks in the Northern Territory. The local daily
newspaper is doing its best to polarise opinion with misinformation and
emotive articles. Bob has written a well-researched summary of the
situation:

I'm not sure if many Territorians read Crikey.com but at least the news is
spreading via Twitter.
