Default Makes sense now.....

Why does Australia's richest woman and arch neo-con Gina Reinhart buy a 10% stake in a not-so-profitable media company?

I think that http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2...section=justin gives some answers.

First paragraph of the article;
"The Australian newspaper says the nation's richest woman, Gina Reinhart, who has a 10 per cent stake in Ten, is a fan of Bolt and believes a right-wing Fox News-style show is needed on the network."
