		<description><![CDATA[New revelations about the death of Ian Tomlinson highlight the benefits of this media-saturated society, while Bob Quick&#8217;s embarrasing mistake shows its dangers. 
When a man died at the anti-G20 protests in London at the beginning of this month, it seemed an open and shut case. Ian Tomlinson died of a heart attack; police had [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Journalists may be low in public esteem, but I reckon if those surveys asked respondents to rank student reporters, we’d fare even worse. 
The general aura of suspicion that often greets journalists is frequently augmented by fear (of being wildly misquoted, I suppose) when our subject hears they’re talking to a student journalist.
Either that, or [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While New Zealand sleeps, most of the world is busy getting on with life.
Yet, it seems the New Zealand Herald’s foreign editor goes to bed at the same time as the rest of us.
How else could you explain the lack of acknowledgement in today’s world section that Russia had called a halt to the conflict [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today the government told New Zealanders how it’s going to spend their money over the next three years.  Yet a murder trial led both major channels’ evening news bulletins. 
They were the day’s “top stories”: the budget and the Kahui case. Presenters on both stations gave a token nod to the economics of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How do you conduct a credible study? Well, if you’re looking into the effects of a company’s practices, it might look a little more kosher if that company doesn’t fund the research.
This story in today’s Herald reports on a Dow-funded study into the health effects of a Dow weed-killer factory in Taranaki.
The study concluded that [...]]]></description>

So I say that this free trade deal with China is not the end of the world as we know it.
I can&#8217;t help thinking that more than a few of those [...]]]></description>

Some students remarked on the overwhelmingly positive coverage of the monarchs in gossip rags: the press gushes over them in a way completely foreign to the snarky tabloids in Britain, for example.  Our teacher [...]]]></description>

He gets his kicks out of winding up Bush administration, implementing policies contrary to US interests and crossing himself in front of the UN General Assembly after  calling Bush the Devil.  It’s all rather humorous, and generally I’ve admired his courage for introducing many [...]]]></description>

On the 11th of March 2004 a series of bombs went off in rush-hour commuter trains in different parts of Madrid, killing nearly 200 people and wounding ten times that many. The worst carnage occurred [...]]]></description>

But had it not been for New Zealand news sources, I wouldn’t have known that anything unusual was going on there at all. It’s made me [...]]]></description>
