and time and resource takes money, the ‘user’ must surely be one of the ‘payers’.
See that's a connection I revile against, its not you. Seems to happens a lot tho. We are people we have time and resource and what is in our best common interest?
This gets lost in it all I feel.

The flipside is that because media is largely consumer driven, it is also the consumer’s responsibility to avoid, and not reward, media product that is poor, and to reward good journalism by being willing to pay for it.
So how does that work when it comes to TV news? Which has been going downhill for a while now. It cant be all the consumers fault or responsibility. The spoken language it is presented in has slowly been bowdlerised so as not to upset the delicate souls amongst us. I think it gets to the point of irrelevance pretty quickly and then just carries on relentlessly, mind numbingly in fact. And presenters becoming celebrities just reinforces how pointless it has become. Yes its the "old model" but it still has a reach and influence which, depending on your POV..... well I dont want to go there.
Media ownership is a powerful factor – but I really don’t know what is the perfect model for who should own it – public or private – what is the best mix – can it be both?
Editorial control not dictated by the owners might be an aspect to look at. Not just the money, that can only lead to disaster IMO

It’d be sweet if we focused on the reporting and not the person.

Yeah there were a lot of holes in that story. And Im not a journalist so Im not looking to do an article or anything on it so not researching all the facts. That TVNZ news story tho"? Shit!
Breathless reporter says " We have heard of this guy who is in a roundabout way connected, may or not be involved, and he has some youtube videos you can look at. But WOW those MSD kiosks...any "hacker" could do it! -

Im struggling to see the logic of that story. So there is a guy who lives OS is a hacker and is employed by DD, who set up the kiosks.
So the inference is a hacker broke into the kiosks?
OH TVNZ did you just flush your moral compass down the toilet! -

It’s all symptomatic of a system that combines the worst of both worlds: bureaucratic unaccountability coupled with nouveau riche greed.
Hang on, I'll just add that to my list. Of things to look out for.
I'd rather we read poems to each other.
