Yes – he’s rather clear on the difference
Point being.I'd trust his experience. The man is actually an expert on Media.

Re Scott Watson: I always thought he’d done it in an alcoholic blackout and genuinely couldn’t remember.
Exxcellent. I don’t think he did it but really, I would rather cops do a fantastic job proving he did/didn’t. I shouldn’t have to be perturbed constantly because I care about each other being treated fairly. I actually care about everyone including those I don’t like because honesty is the best cliche.
Hebe, if ever I had to choose your belief is the best { : )

How many times do you need to keep repeating those non-trivial points of fact before the fucking Herald (which is not a judicial body, BTW) gets the clue?
We could find out by asking Russell. The man, in my opinion, has integrity, doesn't lie and if truth be told, is a right sweetie, who lives with great influential family members, (hi Colin) and we could gauge time by his response{ ;))

Shortly before he passed he told us that Thomas was innocent and the cops had planted evidence. It was, he said, common knowledge in the force.
Well, say no more for me.

I know Police officers who were peripherally involved in that case, and really think a good chunk of the public (and media) need to be reminded that cop shows/forensic procedural on television are NOT DOCUMENTARIES. Of course, you’re damned for “not getting results” fast enough for the Six O’Clock News, but if you don’t get a conviction off a weak case then you get it from the other end.
And still to say ,that is not good enough. They are here to serve and protect us. We pay them to not be thugs who lie and cheat. I expect better. I have had thugs and cheats who lie, in my life. It isn't what I signed up for. The Police have their rep on TV. Use the 6 oclock news. Tell how it's going. Don't be precious. Transparency doesn't hurt. Truth is knowledge. And respectful.

Doing the snappy thing yesterday, this shot is an image of Carrington Golf Course looking North across Karikari Peninsula. I guess if I played golf I would understand peeps impressions of it and their enjoyment playing there.
