Simon Dallow's professional and substantive interviews on the old Agenda were a very pleasant surprise
Totally. So who's going to be the host when Agenda reappears on TV3 this year?
John Campbell? -
Totally. How I would love to have been in that crowd.
how do you all make the image appear with the link?
You just paste the link straight into your post without any of the square bracket palaver - just make sure it has the http and the www and PAS does the rest. I wish we could do the same with static pictures, not just YouTube.

reduce anything Maari-related to a black-on-black cat fight when the realities are a lot more complicated
Paul fecking Holmes with Hone on Q+A was a classic - a torrent of aggressively ignorant racist claptrap, on Harawira's shoulders to deny without coming across as rude. His response to the crayfish line was classic though.
It seems unlikely producers can moderate Mr Holmes' fatuous self-belief in the fearful colonial worldview he absorbed as a boy and has reinforced since through his choice of conversational companions. I resent public money spent spreading garbage thinking.
Can see why some Maori leaders would just stay well away from non-Maori media. Which hurts all of us.

Well blow me down:
I spent a few weeks with TPK lookin' at which flags we should be considering, and that was a lesson in itself. We started with a whole heap of them, but because of intellectual property, ownership, and design issues, we had to cut back to just four - the NZ flag, the red ensign you see at some marae, the confederation flag, and the Maori flag (otherwise known as the tino rangatiratanga flag, or just plain "tino").

two of the three composers' families knew nothing about it
I was going to say, it's all well and fine to assert copyright if it's actually all yours. Metiria Turei is convinced there's a reasonable explanation to be heard beyond the media, but also seems to believe there is only one designer.
