Thank you.

Hard News: About Occupy Wall Street, in reply to Bart Janssen,
I don't think there is a way to make "consequences of actions" drive managers into good behaviour.
Carbon taxes and ETS are one example. There must be others. Not systemically trusting a class of people who have proven themselves untrustworthy would be a start.

I'd say most would lump the banks in with Wall St.

If some media person can weigh in with actual data it would be welcome!
Same. Last date when Key was interviewed live on RNZ Morning Report would do.

Actually, his blog post that Sue linked to is worth reading.

Hard to disagree with Bradbury about how the ban happened, too.
I just don't think there was any direct pressure from the Government at all, and I say that as someone who clearly can't stand this Government and the misery they have brought to the poor of this country.
So what do I think happened? Something far more insidious than obvious interference, I think this was a case of self censorship by Radio NZ management. Their tepid desire to produce bland, non-offensive programming for mashed potato recipes has created a management style so risk adverse that they respond blindly to any perceived offence before any is actually registered.
