Valid news sources....allblacks.com reporting on try scorers and final score in the big match.
I fucking hate Allblacks.com
I mean look at this -
http://www.allblacks.com/Fixtures/EventDetails/4213
thats the page for ABs v Aus August this year. It shows a stack of pre game articles, but is there a quick link there to the teams with who played, who subbed on, any basic stats, the match report?
Nothing. Nothing at all. Its the official fucking AB site but if I wanted to see the team & who subbed on when, who made most tackles there is fucking nothing on the main game page.
You want anything on the actual game you have to go to stats home - series - click on the game. WhyTF is that link not on the match page?
That site is a fucking abortion. And not even a good abortion, a backstreet 20 weeks-in mexican doctor with a kettle he uses to both make tea & sterilise the coathanger abortion.
Its probably all there in an easy link I just havent seen but I'm on a roll

Nice rant
I only go there occasionally to view try highlights for test matches and see the "in the sheds" chatter after the match, sad I know.
If you tried to follow any of the links to partake in the ballot for lions tickets it was impossible for me.

"debate" III today. Trump will have a probably friendly moderator from fox news. Sounds like he's going to tread the same path as last time and double down on the circus acts, apparently Obama's half brother will be in attendance because he supports Trump. If DonDon doesn't use the situation to focus on policy it will be an opportunity wasted

Wikileaks' material is gold because it is an original source without a slant being placed on it by some journalist.
Bias vs agenda?
I see Madonna has offered BJs to males that vote for Hilary....

@taniwharugby I think she's still quite popular with the male Hispanic community

@Duluth I would imagine he should get a slightly sympathetic reception from a guy that works for a right leaning news network. Perhaps his first question won't concern his treatment of women
Why should his first question be about his treatment of women?
-
@Baron-Silas-Greenback It shouldn't, but IIRC that was the first question of the last debate (or the first one?)

I am struggling with what you are getting at. Not asking him about his treatment does or not not indicate a sympathetic moderator?

I'm confused. So the last moderator was unfair?
How does that make Chris Wallace friendly?

You forgot the fishing emoji
Sorry. Gold when liberals used it for their agenda against Bush and co., but a terribly biased Russian inspired source when used against liberals.

@phoenetia
There is not really any such thing as 'reputable' press. CNN is just bloody hopeless for example, yet many consider them main stream.
Reputable is incredibly subjective. For example I bet we have very different opinions on which news outlets are reputable.And since when does Herald validate or corroborate a story??? They make stuff up and regurgitate left wing propaganda on a daily basis. Maybe it was the shock value of them doing for a right wing article that got you by surprise?
Theres no definitive measure by which to say one outlet is reputable, its relative imo which is why there's typically no one go to source for any news. Some are more reputable than others for example, WSJ has a considerably better reputation for credibility and newsworthiness than Huff Post, Mother Jones, Slate etc.
There was no surprise of the kind you suggest - as I said, it was in line with my "Very poor" expectations of NZHerald which sounds not too dissimilar to your own.
