An ABC IT worker has reportedly dragged the public broadcaster into a virtual currency money making racket and a "serious misconduct case" is underway.

Well there you go. Bitcoin is a "money making racket". Over the past two weeks popular media has labeled bitcoin as the currency of choice for drug dealers, money launderers and now it's a racket (hence implying the whole thing is illegal). Fantastic. I'm sure merchants are lining up to support bitcoins with this kind of publicity.
