ABC Denies “Manipulating” Triple J’s Hottest Sausage Fest Of All Time

10:55AM Jess McGuire | The Australian has an interesting story about this year’s controversial Hottest 100 Songs Of All Time list. Triple J listeners decided on what they considered to be the greatest tunes in the history of modern music, and it seems that the majority of folks who don’t listen to Triple J and didn’t bother voting found the results to be exceptionally disappointing.
