    They did it to themselve and good riddance.
    Out of the ashes should come a smaller, smarter, and infinitely more honest media. Meanwhile the pain must be endured by those that caused it, the media themselves.

    And you get this from a strongly partisan propaganda site that is pat

    You would not recognise honesty if it hit you in the face, Tony

    No, that is your bias showing. I get it from many sources, as do all thinking people. you should try it.

    You really are a childish fool. I am inherently honest, something you cannot possibly comprehend.

    Oh good the second wave has started. The decay proper has started.

    Everything goes through cycles. The market forces are governing.

    Out of the ashes there will be a new generation of news, for there will be a demand for news, just not the spin.

    So what is your point Rich? In respect of the issues Jull faced, why

    You posted the comment about Centrist: "you get this from a strongly
    partisan propaganda site that is pat of the NZ Taxpayer Union / Atlas
    Network grouping?". You have no credible evidence of this. I have
    noted that sources that host opinions with which you disagree are
    routinely labeled by you as 'far right' with connections to 'the Atlas
    Network' with no supporting evidence.

    Such is the political rhetoric you invent in your crusade against the
    current Government.

    The Centrist is a continuation of previous Taxpayer Union sponsored

    articles by a previous board member of the NZ Taxpayer Union.

    Tony, my bet is that Rich cannot produce any such evidence. The
    Centrist is careful not to name those involved in the organisation,
    but clearly aims to be in the centre of politics (as opposed to left
    and right wing in my view).

    I believe you are correct. They are a breath of fresh air, clearly doing what they can to provide balance.

    There seems to be a theme of "don't trust "The News" . . ." which
    seeks to get gullible readers to think they are getting unbiased >>>>summaries of "news" from The Centrist website . . . . >>>>https://centrist.nz/and-media-bosses-wonder-why-no-one-trusts-the-news-anymore/


    So what is your point Rich? In respect of the issues Jull faced, why
    do you draw attention to who he sought support from?

    You posted the comment about Centrist: "you get this from a strongly >>>partisan propaganda site that is pat of the NZ Taxpayer Union / Atlas >>>Network grouping?". You have no credible evidence of this. I have
    noted that sources that host opinions with which you disagree are >>>routinely labeled by you as 'far right' with connections to 'the Atlas >>>Network' with no supporting evidence.

    Such is the political rhetoric you invent in your crusade against the >>>current Government.

    The Centrist is a continuation of previous Taxpayer Union sponsored >>websites - this one is better hidden in terms of ownership, but when
    it started it acknowledged that it came from an earlier site that had >>articles by a previous board member of the NZ Taxpayer Union.
    Sreaking of evidence - do you have the slightest evidence of that very unlikely
    situation?

    Tony, my bet is that Rich cannot produce any such evidence. The
    Centrist is careful not to name those involved in the organisation,
    but clearly aims to be in the centre of politics (as opposed to left
    and right wing in my view).
