Hard News: Special Sources, in reply to
a pork pie from Brendan Boyle
He sounds like a decent man. So where is his information coming from?

To do so, they'd need to piggy-back on existing successful (i.e. recognised overseas) New Zealand-associated imagery
Which 42 Below did so well with their online viral clips. Maybe Mr Ross has lost his mojo?

Thanks. That detail is well worth sharing around.
Bailey had left his name and number when he called the Social Development Ministry last week to raise concerns about the vulnerability of Work and Income's systems.
On Thursday, Bailey's Linkdin profile had been checked out by an adviser in Social Development Minister Paula Bennett's office, Ng said.
The Social Development Ministry had "categorically denied" leaking Bailey's name, Ng said.
"I have no evidence it came from the minister's office but I think that is a reasonable guess."
Ng said the Government wanted to "turn the conversation around" to focus on Bailey.
However, Bennett today denied the leak came from her office and Prime Minister John Key ruled out involvement from his staff.

Govt. Dept's legal duty of care. As far as I can find, there is none.
I'm not a lawyer but recall some cases that hinged on exactly that - and Susan Couch vs Corrections is one higher-profile current example.

dirty word is it?
Impugning the motivation of the source is standard practice for these guys, rather than taking responsibility for failings.
