I say again if they take computers away it will seriously undermine the media's ability to report this election, hell just having the cops in at your place of work is very distracting.

Hard News: A week being a long time in politics, in reply to Tom Semmens,
You want to see that Day In The Life clip from Campbell, the Tony Ryall head nodding, the tee shirts, it's all disturbing, then there's Act, the teeshirted youths, garrrr.

I just dropped Telstra after many many years; along with Voda probably the worst company I have ever had to deal with, except Telecom...Sky can be pretty gnarly too. Hmmmm all these companies have some things in common.

Yeah, idly I'd say it's a given because this whole ambitious for NZ thing just got way too hard and I have my photo albums.

I asked about Curio because if he works for no one else there may be an issue with his polling in fact being election promotion (bias in what was called "tone of voice"). Market research companies have legal guidelines as do ad agency copywriters.
The MMP stuff is totally quoting the amended yet still onerous message of the anti-MMP advertising. -
Does Curio poll for anyone else?

Trying to tell the media what to say. Epic fail. If police seize media's computers = loss of election (I hope).

This seems reasonable.

Hard News: Criminalising Journalism, in reply to Sacha,
Ah thanks, still I think this quote highlights the general tone,
“There are one or two people in the media that need to do a little bit of self-assessment this weekend and decide what it is they’re going to be talking about.”
What does this say other than, Love My Way, or more pointedly...are you with us or against us?
Border crossed. -

Joyce is comms broadcasting total I reckon, albeit not in name ;-) The 43 million to TV3 was signed over by Joyce no?
