| 1255216 | 2012-01-20 07:48:00 | Is it just me, or are NZ news outlets staffed by retarded monkeys that never made it out of primary school? Case in point: www.stuff.co.nz Senate Democratic leaders still plan to vote on Tuesday on taking up the Protect International Property Act The sheer volume of grammatical, spelling and basic factual errors showing up in news media is simply astonishing. Yes 'spell check' is handy, but it is not a substitute for a brain or an education. |

| 1255221 | 2012-01-20 08:26:00 | The standard is pretty crap but the thing i hate the most is the bullshit they put in the media and the media just takes situations and makes then worse by giving them publicity. The can take a situation as bad as 911 and make it seem 10x worse. That's right they make stuff look like 9110. | icow (15313) | ||
| 1255222 | 2012-01-20 08:29:00 | Theres a standard ?? ;) | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1255223 | 2012-01-20 08:38:00 | A sub-standard possibly. Proprietors are always on the lookout for staff with knowledge, aptitude and energy. At the first sign of any of those, out they go. | R2x1 (4628) | ||
