It's us
Quite.

Bit of an aside, but can you imagine what we would or would not know if weren't for these two journalists?

Hard News: Media Media Media, in reply to Stephen R,
I don’t know that they care about being able to brag to advertisers
Obviously, whatever they're in it for, it's nothing to do with advertisers.
But touting one's ratings clout is good for listenership and sends a message to funders, I'd have thunk.

Soz if you've already covered this.
I don't get it. Did Nielsen or whoever does the survey give RNZ a discount on the fee for inclusion?

So, we got back from sailing ok. Those who know me know that mechanical aptitude is not something that appears in my Myers Briggs profile. Nor is detailed knowledge of Myers Briggs personality modelling.

Hard News: Fear of Cycling, in reply to Bart Janssen,
It’s that guy, the one that swerves into you as they pass or stops at the lights completely covering the green paint.
Must have been the same one that – on a regular basis – turns left _just_ in front of me, seemingly oblivious to the fact that I’m moving forwards. In fact, seemingly oblivious to everything.
It’s real easy to get angry at that guy.

Great North Road in heavy traffic, past Waterview. Guy honks, overtakes me, hits the queue at the lights. Again, he honks, overtakes, hits the queue. Happens a third time. Only this time, he pulls over on a broken yellow line. Gets out of the car. Holds the door open, and stands holding it, blocking the entire left lane. My mind is racing. What is this? Is he going to try and clock me a roundhouse to the jaw? Does he wish to tell me something? Doesn't matter, the light goes green. I surge past him with a million other cars. But if the right lane was blocked with traffic, I'd have had nowhere to go. And he knew it, too.
Some folks got it all messed up, I reckon.

How great would it be to have more women with disabilities working with youth, mentoring them, making it known that we can help each other?
How great? Very great. Sharing this one.

Hard News: If this was ever funny, it's…, in reply to Russell Brown,
It was really slick and fast
I still can't tell how much of all this is going ATP from their point of view, or whether it's just a bunch of dicks making the same kind of luck for themselves as a gang member in a sandpit.
Meanwhile, Jacinda. Yay!

What's eerie is that only - what - a matter of weeks ago, the term "fake news" was used by the MSM to describe what all the bad guys from Russian spies to Breitbart were doing to rack up support for Trump and throw shade on Clinton.
And now Trump's insane bullshit make the MSM look like corporate charities. Although I suppose in the case of the Guardian, that's not far from the truth.
