This is bullsh*t and an absolute outrage! How can Channel 10 do this?

The extra 1/2 hour of Channel 10's news will be taken up with advertising and crappy filler stories.

C'mon, the spokeswomans name is "Schnitzerling" clearly they have a sense of humour to send her out to do the axing. :lol:

Pretty sure this is a beat up by News LTD, don't think Ten have actually ever said they will be axing The Simpsons.
