Hard News: Orcon IRL: Vote Auckland, in reply to Trevor Nicholls,
It's only an umlaut if you're metal enough.

Hmm. John says that at the outset, and plays a recording of him questioning Tew earlier in the afternoon. I dunno.

From that NewsHub link
A NZR spokesperson says they weren't aware Laura was prepared to speak to them and they had tried to make contact with her through the police. They said they assumed a Newshub journalist would not disclose their source.
Is it just me, or is that self contradictory? And why would they go through the police to contact her, when no formal complaint had been laid?

From a letter to the NZ Drug Foundation demanding payment for an OIA response.
Say what? Screenshots??? They have a database that they can't get reports out of? Bollocks. Straight to the Ombudsman with that one!

Hard News: Obscuring the News, in reply to BP M,
Ask any big sophisticated international media buyer...
That was brilliant, and echoes the argument I was making almost 20 years ago to government agencies about their web stats. Nobody knew what they were looking at, so the bigger the raw numbers, the better. No-one (except most of the web geeks) seemed to understand that "sticky" wasn't a good thing for a government site, because it meant the user couldn't find what they were looking for. Of course, government is a different kettle of web fish, but they're reading the same books.

Danyl over at the DimPost is looking for an aggregator,
As I commented there, he's actually looking for a curator, rather than an aggregator. Very different things.

Up Front: I Swear, It's True, in reply to Emma Hart,
I should bloody well hope so
Other people are probably too hip to mention it. Cockwombles, all.

Up Front: I Swear, It's True, in reply to Rich Lock,
Slapped to the floor with a huge cock, perhaps.
You'd have to ask Steven Joyce about that

Has anyone else had the Mockers going through their heads while reading this thread?
