The Story

A few weeks ago, the story that covered the headlines of different newspapers and news bulletins was on the former Minister for roads and transport of New South Wales, David Campbell caught by Seven News camera, leaving a gay club called Ken's of Kensington, in eastern Sydney using tax payers funded car. The story exposes his living a double life for more than 20 years whilst portraying to the general public as a family man. The original story by Seven News had no mention of his ministerial duty but rather just disclosing his personal life (and in this case one with a voyeuristic connotation to it) that is secret to his society and the general public fits the Klein’s description of a scandal. Different media organisations (public and independent) have reported on this gossip/scandal and their views are discussed in the blog.
