<p>I actually don't mind bbc, there are normally a couple of good in depth articles and they don't have comments so the ferals don't get their chance to urinate on everything.</p>
<p>Haven't actually though about Sydney Morning Herald, might have to do for now</p>

<p>The biggest difference is you'll note that it has a much higher percentage of positive stories. NZ herald is just about all negative.</p> -
<p>when you consider the tripe that NZH and Stuff serve up from Twattue and Treason, maybe it is the angle these media outlets are looking from...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I will open both pages and look over the headlines for one that catches my interest, but as others point out, mainly negative or social media rubbish...sadly there is far too much of that out there today</p> -

<p>the fact it is leading news on the Herald, I don't think it is that news worthy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is it really new footage, had someone been hiding it until today?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>@Hooroo - It shows a the lineout, Chiefs prop moving freely, then the trainer coming on when Cruden went down, trainer going to prop and then the prop sitting down and being tended to, and then going off.</p> -

<p>*Newsworthy</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I wonder whether the number of people that click on an article has an effect of moving it up the page?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It's been pretty heavily discussed on a couple of radio stations and Craig Dowd wrote an article on ESPN.com about it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I clicked on the article and read it with interest, so I reckon it is newsworthy..... Certainly more so that the other articles that have been posted above</p> -
<p>as I said, just high lights the state of NZ media when some thing like that is news worthy as a main head line above all the bachelor articles, what Jessica Alba is feeding her kid etc.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not sure if NZH operates like google in terms of clicks.</p> -

No , they are still at large . Their sphincter hanging like the sword of Damocles over the pool ready to strike at any time . -
