Hell sorry, it was freakin' wunderkinde anyway, turned me on to the outside world and how it might be a good idea to, you know, pay it some attention.
Also I do recall a co-host actually saying while you were doing your thing that you pretty much delivered it straight to mic; it sounded like you had no notes anyway! -
RB, you may note a pattern in the need for both to continually seek your approval and when you attempt to withdraw, they inflame, it is a negative attachment that will not diminish for them, all you may do is withdraw the hook for their projections. Obviously it is your choice, I have seen enough instances of this to know that they will accelerate their demands as they sense you are about to withdraw.

You couldn't script that, the West Coast claims another Stanley Graham, man alone.

Sometimes it's best to de-latch from these people, they are oxygen thieves, starve them of it, and of course without any response, where would they be?

I talked with John on set B.
M: The Cherman's have pulled out.
JK; Yeah I know, I can't help you there, Cherman's you know...
M; Of course, I understand, what brings you to this neck of the woods?
JK: Oh I have a house here and people, I have people here apparently, but I'm lonely Merc, it hasn't worked out as I'd hoped.
M; It's OK, take it from me, it never works out as you hope, best to abandon hope, out here, out West, this is the final frontier.
JK; To be honest...
M; Don't...
JK; No, I insist, it's about the oil.
M; Oh, the Taranaki delayed discovery?
JK; Yeah, years ago Hone took them out, I reckon we could too.
M; Jesus John you can't be serious.
JK; I met this vulture, Milo, he's keen to ah, democratise the West Coast, all we need is an imperative, a moral one.
M; I've retired JK, not one soul, I promised my Dad.
JK; It's OK I'm ah in an indeterminate state Jewish.
M; Shut up John, and don't be seen playing round with Milo, he knows Wayne PI..
JK; Jehovah.
M; I gotta go John, plus you're creeping me out.
JK; OH OK, bugger, here come my people, Christ they're like fundies, and that DPF always with the advice, sometimes I wish I was back trading you know.
M; Shut up John. -
Che, there's Readership, Circulation, then copies sold, copies printed, copies not sold (them with the masthead torn off) and all sorts of calculations made, all to do with advertising rates really. It is Ian Wisharts nemesis, because I think he gets a fair whack of funding from somewhere. I saw him interviewed on this once and it made him very uncomfortable.
Anyway for details on the system there's the MPA. -
Binary solo, n oi ce.

Funny you should say that, porn doesn't have pass-on rates as far as I know, I'm not a Media Buyer. Also, sometimes you may notice at the Doc's rooms some mags have their masthead torn off, that's intentional and has something to do with something, you'd have to get a Media Buyer to elaborate on that.

Adjudged by the "pass-on" rate, a nefarious practice, I recall Ian W stating that Investigate has a 7 pass on rate. For every 1 copy of Investigate sold, 7 other people read that copy, Doctors rooms incur pass-on, so publishers freely distribute to Doctor's rooms in order to up their pass-on rate and so ad fees.
It's wholly stupid, like saying 800 000 people watched Holmes.
What we are dealing with here is a fundamentalist christian crusader who doesn't seem to mind the usury and a populace who have voyeuristic tendencies like any other with politicians who arn't averse to the odd bit of muck racking.
Everyone loses as Mr Wishart's wife can testify. -
jh, I'm happy to be missing what you got.
