Henry is the most revolting man, so that rules out TV3 for me.
I'm similarly unimpressed

his mind is as deep as a not very deep thing
Not so. Smart enough to have pulled off the China FTA amongst other things.

All this talk about facts and figures, I don't trust them

I believe your attack on Hone's character is what brought comment.
Most of us learn at a pretty young age that saying "but he did" in no way excuses your own behaviour.

Totally. Truth to power is the paid job of both media and opposition.

I do think that managing information is commoditizing really fast
That's right. As I say, the leading focus has moved past that to higher value creativity - like film, fashion, software design and marketing (rather than processing or even coding), service personalisation, innovation. Yet many people's thinking hasn't.
When we talk about innovation and enterprise, it's also why culture industries and suchlike are really important, not just science or manufacturing or food.
