I remember playing cricket at Taita college. There was a huge ditch 3/4 of the way down the pitch, our coach wanted to call the game off for safety concerns. I scored 17 and got player of the match.

<p>Stuff have been running a lot of stories of children murdered by their parents this weekend, what the deal behind that?</p>

<p>They're probably just very annoying kids.</p> -

Well that's a welcome return to form . <br><br>
Was just at the barbers and they had the print version, apparently it's a weekend feature about the rate of child abuse in NZ . -

I think one of those "lads" mags like Ralph or something died recently though. I'm not sure why they exist in the first place ,</p>

They never really showed breasts though did they? That's probably why they went broke. -

Interesting where we get reporting from. I get a lot of thought-provoking stuff from sites liked cracked.com - the one in the other thread about ISIS. One about slavery in America. Only look at the "traditional" news fire support these days

<p>Nah, not rave - but we're going OK. Plus if I mention it, I'll make myself rather identifiable. So it was a pointless post on my behalf. One of 10,000 or so... </p> -

<p>Anything not behind a firewall is going to be a bit shit as you are fighting for eyeballs with clickbait shit. Its why the Mail Online is so succesful, its mostly shots of starlets falling out of bars. But its not competing with news, its competing with The Superficial or Cracked.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The other option is you stop paying your journalists & basically become a blog - as Huffpo & Stuff have done. So the opinions & news is at the same level as you'll get from anyone on here.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you want actual decent quality reporting on anything you have to pay for it. Economist, FT, NYT are all good.</p> -

<p>Having said that, their coverage of the Charlie Hebdo massacre was disgraceful. "Free speech is very important, unless someone might be interfering with business, then it is a worthless, juvenile value!"</p>

<p>They are playing a very different tune now.</p>

<p>I cancelled my (academic discount) subscription after that, you'll be extremely relieved to know.</p>

<p>Still 1000x better than the fucking <em>Economist</em>.</p> -
I see today's latest hatchet job is on dairy farmers , on breakfast tv someone was interviewed about the TV clip last night and the interviewer kept brining up none of the bad treatment of the calves was actually by the farmers she was brushed off every time .<br><br>
The piston wristed gibbon who started this campaign said he wants to hurt Fonterra not the farmers, I'm not sure hoe that works .
