High-profile independent Tony Windsor has banned News Corp journalists from his campaign headquarters.
"Well, I don't want them here," the former MP said from Tamworth in the New England electorate he is contesting on Saturday when asked why he'd made the decision.
The Australian published a story in the last week of the campaign alleging Mr Windsor was a schoolyard bully 50 years ago.
When asked whether his decision was counter to democracy, Mr Windsor said: "We pay the rent on the office.
"The ABC is very welcome."
