PARLIAMENT Launching a heavy attack on The Wall Street Journal , a BN lawmaker today likened the business daily to a “beauty queen with panau ( skin disease) under her clothes”.

Dr Noor Azmi Ghazali (BN-Bagan Serai) ticked off the WSJ for using sensational news to sell its paper, saying the daily “cannot be fully trusted”.

In the debate on the royal address at the Dewan Rakyat, he said the business daily has been playing up news on Malaysia to the extent that readers thought Malaysia has suffered a bad economic downturn.
