I love how Hungarian cooking uses a completely normal amount of paprika

Two packets of smoked paprika, for one recipe

Hot take: if publishers are choosing to use AI to cut costs or save time, then they shouldn't be a publisher

Is the Sunday Star Times short story competition still a thing? Or has that gone along with everything else good in the world? #NZlit

as reported in webworm today, the nz media council has ruled against RNZ, saying it lacked balance and fairness in its reporting over the death of trans teen alex. hopefully this encourages RNZ to look at all their reporting on trans issues - they need to (www.webworm.co/trainhopping/)

In their ruling, released today, the NZMC also took issue with that, writing:

The parents are entitled to express their views about the tragic events and their views on the teen’s gender identity and RNZ is entitled to report them. But their perspective came from a particular point of view and drove the narrative. The fact that the story was brought to RNZ by a group that is regarded as having an anti-trans perspective should have alerted RNZ to the fact that there was a wider agenda at play.

The NZMC concluded:

The Council believes RNZ should have been aware that there was a wider agenda at play and another side of the story that needed to be told, particularly when further information emerged after the publication of the first story. They could have provided a balancing alternative perspective in a number of ways, in the original story or subsequently.

The complaint is upheld for lack of balance and fairness.

Even if you don't vote for your council (pls do but), tick that box for the referendum. It is BINDING for three terms - so if it fails, no Māori ward for nearly a decade. And EVERYONE votes, not just Māori. Tāngata Tiriti step up, Pākehā mā, you need to vote.

The 'two languages confuse children' line is literally assimilationist shit from two generations ago that has been so massively debunked even as whole cohorts lost their mother tongues at school.

Ridiculous how Glastonbury is more appalled by an artist's words than by the Israeli government's actions. Make it make sense

when a trans child dies because their parents refuse to accept them, it is deeply unethical to report only on those parents' side of the story, it's my opinion that it's journalistic malpractice

"NZ has a luddite approach to ai" that word doesn't mean what you think it means but good. We should be critical of the technology that threatens job security and livelihoods when businesses and corporations look to use it (badly) to cut costs aka avoid having to pay workers.
