freitasm:

 

(Also, the article itself is something of a war situation brewing between Italy and the UK).

 

 

I hope there aren't any Italians reading, because I think the BBC version actually sounds quite nice! I might give it a go on the weekend.

Not really a headline but this word salad from Chris Hipkins is worthy of Kamala Harris:

 

 

 

“Eventually, Hipkins said, “I’ve always said taxing the family home shouldn’t be taxed, but I’m not announcing a policy that we haven’t announced”.

The Herald files a story about people stuck due to train problems in Auckland, under Entertainment... really?

 

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/train-delays-in-auckland-as-newmarket-station-faces-infrastructure-issue/FFYGXMWNPBEFDCSFJQCGKJ4QC4/

 

I guess the Herald is drifting further towards infotainment rather than a real news outlet.

RNZ talking about an earthquake today.

 

It struck at 5:53pm on Friday Wednesday

 

Surely it wasn't shaking so much you couldn't work out what day it was.
