In recent months, Twitter’s brand has taken a beating. From Julia Gillard to Sydney’s Daily Telegraph having a go, Nic Christensen looks at how the brand is faring ahead of the launch of its Australian office.
It was News Limited’s ‘night of nights’, the News Awards, and editor Paul Whittaker had just won the prestigious CEO Award for the Daily Telegraph’s ‘People Power’ electricity prices campaign. But the audience gathered inside Sydney’s historic State Theatre weren’t about to hear an acceptance speech about electricity prices from the pugnacious editor, known by many as Boris because of his resemblance to tennis player Boris Becker.

Sunday Telegraph editor Mick Carroll is proving himself immune to shame and is taking his Dance Of Down Under idea to a new extreme despite vicious scorn on YouTube and bewilderment here at Mumbrella.
Carroll has had his gossip columnists Jonathon Moran and Elle Halliwell perform the dance on its website with choreographer Adam Williams, who devised the effort which hits an impressive number of cultural cliches.
Dr Mumbo now learns that the pair has spent the past few days ringing around celebrity agents trying to get them to have their clients join them at Mrs Macquarie’s Chair for a mass filming with around 100 punters (although Dr Mumbo has no idea where they’re dragging them in from).
Sadly they’ve had many knock-backs (including Nova’s Fitzy and Wippa), but Dr Mumbo understands they’ve locked in former X Factor contestant Johnny Ruffo, plus veteran stagers Kerri-Anne Kennereley and Charlotte Dawson.

News last week that country crooner LeAnn Rimes had entered treatment for anxiety and stress echoed that of another celebrity's distress, several thousand miles away.
One day prior to Rimes' announcement, Australian television personality Charlotte Dawson was hospitalized after a suicide attempt in the early hours of the morning. The host of "Australia's Next Top Model" had spent much of the night retweeting the onslaught of hateful messages on her Twitter account, before signing off "Hope this ends the misery ... You win x." (Dawson would later admit that the "death threats" had "triggered that feeling of helplessness when the trolls got to me. They got the better of me and they won.")
Closer to home, Rimes had been dealing with an undue dose of Internet vitriol. Those following Rimes' story know that fans of Brandi Glanville (the ex-wife of Rimes' husband, Eddie Cibrian) had been particularly harsh on the 30-year-old singer.
