Hard News: The Very Worst, in reply to Kumara Republic,
Meanwhile, McVicar's idol has thrown his weight behind the Birther Movement, and the freakin' Feds have been breathing down his neck.
That's amazing. What was that thing about power and corruption again? Wow, indeed.

Just in passing, because this is today's thread, the BSA have issued their findings in re Francis, Gouge and Thompson and TVWorks Ltd, which relates to Alasdair Thompson and others complaining about Campbell Lives' article last year, in which he made his infamous remarks. All points of the complaint were not upheld.
The headnote is on Scoop and the full decision is on the BSA's website

Hard News: The Very Worst, in reply to Russell Brown,
I have watched a colleague spend weeks revising a research report because it wasn’t what the minister would want to see. I am increasingly worried about this, as in my sphere of operations we haven’t seen anything like this before.
Ugh. That is worrying.
Not least because ignoring evidence leads to billion-dollar boondoggles like the government's road-building programme.
To be fair that's not just true for National governments. Any time the facts disagree with published policy, this happens. That said, this bunch seem to be quite egregious about it ;-)

Hard News: The Golden Mile, in reply to Sacha,
Julie-Anne is making huge strides. Gareth did his best in the last term (and that was pretty damn good) but he was spread to thin. With more MPs, the Greens are having a solid impact. Brownlee looked like a big incompetent bully in the House this week.

And were it not a breach of a court order and someone's privacy, I would tell you exactly why I think Bob McCoskrie is a bad man.
One day I am going to get you very, very drunk...

Hard News: One man’s Meat Puppets is…, in reply to Tim Michie,
Perhaps Lang, as an artist, was commenting on the scene around him? It's not as if Metropolis is a nice place, after all.

Video is from Metropolis, 1927, by Fritz Lang so around the same time. What Lang was describing in fiction, Hitler was trying to make happen.
