Mockery
A name given, in an effort to be amusing, to the "The Mercury", Hobart's daily newspaper: I used to work in a newsagency in central Hobart, and regularly people would come in and hand me their money and say "just the Mockery thanks", or "do you have a copy of Saturday's Mockery".
Contributor's comments: The Mockery is also commonly used for the Illawarra Mercury, and I think may have been used by Norman Gunston.
