Following up the last two posts , heres the latest circulation stats. The dom post and Press have been absolutely hammered, I don't know much about the press but the dom post is a joke . I didn't actually know the Sunday news was still going tbh.
Maybe @smudge can give some reasons why the ODT seems to be the only one not haemorrhaging readers at the same rate as the other papers?
http://newspaper.abc.org.nz//audit.html?org=npa&publicationid=%25&mode=embargo&npa_admin=1&publicationtype=19&memberid=%25&type=%25Quite simply, they still consider local news to be of merit. It's a point of difference because you're unlikely to find that news anywhere else (although Stuff do have a hard working reporter based in Dunedin). The have council reporters, court reporters, and cover all sorts of local sport (and racing). People still like seeing the names of people the know in the paper - even if it is in the court news...
Do they consider hard work actually proof reading ? If that’s the case they’ve got the rest of the country beat.
@jegga i do miss a Sunday dump without the Sunday news and their startling insights ( I’m still waiting for Filipo Levi to make his AB debut like they ‘scooped’ ) but I guess the flip side is a phone doesn’t make the same rustling sound ?
Can’t use it when you run out of paper either.
The ODT does have sub-editors and the stories generally havd at least have 2-3 other sets of eyes on them before they are sent to the printers but a few changes still make it to print...

Latest circulation figures for the dom post are down 13.3% over the last year
Hmm, I wonder why?

I'm posting on my phone. I'm not a journalist. I don't get your point - especially from the master of not reading threads before posting.

@Mokey said in Alternative needed from the absolute crap of stuff.co.nz:
@jegga Why does she need a gay wedding planner? Does she only shop at gay supermarkets? Fill up her car at gay petrol stations?
Fark she's a twit, giving bisexuals a bad name.
Its more attention whoring, will she need a gay divorce lawyer for part 2 of this look at me series of articles ? .A simple google search suggests shes full of shit too unless somewhere hidden behind the paywall she actually points out that there are gay wedding planners in NZ

@jegga I'd say most wedding planners unless they were hyper religious would be more than willing to accommodate a gay wedding. Cos funnily enough, queer people use the same currency to buy shit as straight people.
You just need to up the fabulous by 15%

Yeah but for everyone that looks like her there’s a load of Ursula Carlsons.....
As an aside while driving in rural Hawkes Bay over the weekend I was tuning the radio and caught an ad for her ‘comedy’ tour.
Wow. I think I’d rather have a threesome with Hilary Barry and Anika Moa than attend that.

Just for perspective, this was posted to Reddit in 2013... So only 6 years to pick it up. In more news, the London Olympics seems to be going well.

I thought the claim that "sirloin is a leaner cut but T-bones are higher in fat" was a bit odd. A T-bone is just a sirloin (M. longissimus dorsi only for a good one) and a fillet (M. psoas major) on either sides of the bone. I checked one of the classic beef muscle profiling papers, and sirloin is slightly higher in fat than fillet. What you do with the fat cap is up to you.
Perhaps they meant the US definition of sirloin, which encompasses the rump steaks?

To be fair driving in Auckland is pretty painful.
