Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis

Context Phase

Mr. Harry Browne:

By "property porn", I mean the programmes and feature articles that were part of the life of magazines and newspapers here that encouraged readers to constantly think about going higher and higher up the ladder - to think about getting that bigger house and how they were going to decorate their apartment in Bulgaria. It is a widely used term that refers to that sort of programming and editorial material.
