a villains convention?

After reading this piece see here about the upward looking career prospects of right wing columnist Andrew Bolt, it started to make a little more sense as to why he's so "successful" at his craft. For a start billionairess Gina Rinehart is a fan, who is reportedly keen to have a "right-wing Fox News-style show" in her network stable......so I guess they've come to the right guy there?
But if one billionaire as a patron is not enough, then there's also the Scientologist worshiping James Packer, who virtually stepped over dead bodies to (metaphorically, if not literally) embrace Bolt at the (of all places) Alan Jones Tribute Dinner.
And Packer remember is a guy thats failed at everything he's ever dabbled at in business, so perhaps Mr Bolt may wish to be weary of getting too close to that one?
And then of course there's his present employer and patron Saint himself Rupert Murdoch. So indeed, perhaps it's not such a mystery after all as to why Andrew Bolt is so "successful"?
