For seven years, the literary and media class has been fawning over Dark Emu, despite its obvious flaws. ABC hosts were particularly enamoured of the book and its author. And if you dared questioned the work, you were likely to be called a racist (as Andrew Bolt and everyone at Quadrant was). But now the wizard has been exposed. But will the journalists and politicians admit they were duped? Or will the fight to maintain the narrative?
