1255946 2012-01-26 08:56:00 At least it prompted JK to apologise to the oldies. Snorkbox (15764)
1255947 2012-01-26 09:48:00 Now that its out, people can see for themselves this conversation was a non-event. As it always was. The only significance was that National publicly gave a nod and a wink to John Banks as the ACT candidate for Epsom. And we knew that before the pollies even sat down!

What an appalling waste of television and newspaper time and effort. There were kids being beaten to death by their parents in NZ while this went on but our high-minded journalists know the real issues didn't they??!!

At its core the true issue is that you cannot secretly record third party conversations. The media would love to do so - but it is wrong. The Americans have an expression for illegally obtained evidence - fruit of the poisoned tree. None of it may be used. End of story.

1255951 2012-01-26 19:29:00 Why do they insist on calling it a tape? No one uses tape any more. That is so last century!:illogical Roscoe (6288)
1255952 2012-01-26 19:40:00 The Left were keeping it simple so their followers could understand

WAV, AIFF, AU,PCM,FLAC or ogg would be to confusing for their followers to understand
