Here is the damage caused by lifting the Commonwealth Bank Mastercard ad from the masthead:

There are two slight tears along the lines of the adhesive. I can’t tell what Epicure “goes”. I can’t see the second person in the photo on the right.

There are not many professional newspaper people who would put advertising revenue ahead of their newspaper product in this way.
