It seems that NDD is getting nervous at the alter of a deal with First Fleet for the packaging and distribution of their magazines. Since my first post on this issue five days ago, NDD management have reportedly been busy telling various stakeholders including its existing distributors, publishers and newsagent representatives that there is no deal and that their titles will not be distributed by First Fleet.
Maybe NDD could tell First Fleet that the deal is off and then issue a statement to newsagents and publishers confirming this.
