George,

Because while most of the people would no doubt have the best of intentions, there’s always sharks on the lookout for an easy buck.

Cheers
Jamie.

She’s just being a mum SIS, I know what you mean though…

I thought so…

I believe Acey is in a position where he doesn’t have to work (for anyone else, anyway), since he’s a successful investor and dabbles in a few other projects (at least that’s what time lurking on the somersoft site tells me)…

yes, but I’m wondering what purpose answering this question actually serves… are you doubtful about the credentials of some of the posters?

Hmmm… seem to remember A Current Affair doing a story with Steve on wrapping, describing him as a saviour of Australia’s battlers, helping them into their own homes… of course, none of you would remember that would you, because it destroys your argument in one fell swoop.

If you’re going to debate, acknowledge the black and white in issues……[Read more]

Just be yourself Celivia… I agree, let’s just keep it simple… for pete’s sake, it’s only a forum…

Richmond,

So what if the forum is owned by Steve, does this mean we cannot not disagree with him or question him?

Steve is not King Kerry

Seven, if you bothered to read my earlier reply, there are many differing points of view on here, which is a good thing. Bec’s posts that outlined her different points of view, I personally had no problem…[Read more]

Seven,

It is a forum owned by Steve. Simple as that.

Seven,

I think you’re a bit off the mark… this ain’t a democracy, and I reckon Steve’s been very patient… perhaps Bec could put up her own “folding stuff” and start her own forum where she can say what she wants.

There are many many voices here who are greatly different to Steve’s, and this forum “is” open to all interested in property…[Read more]

sweeping generalisation yack, my man… not all here are after the easy quick fix… I think it’s a bit harsh to be so disparaging.

Read some of my earlier replies on debates about the media and you’ll have no doubts on my thoughts re: Today Tonight and ACA. I don’t cheerlead for ACA just because they’re part of the 9 stable.

re your comment: “When I was working on a local radio station I also noticed that the news varied every 30 minutes for the same incident.” That’s…[Read more]

As Rugbyfan said,

Media Watch is hardly unbiased and should be on a commercial chanel as it is no different to TT or ACA. It twists words into whatever it wants them to say.

He’s spot on, Media Watch is a joke…

If you saw it on 9, you would have seen the same interview that I just went and watched… what I watched wasn’t edited.

Hi,

Thought I’d do some research so I’m not just shooting from the lip (enough people around here do that [biggrin])…

I’ve just had a look at the interview, and the question (in my opinion) was in context. This is a transcript…

Mother: I’M HARD HIT I MEAN I’VE LOST TWO OF MY OWN, BUT I HAD TWO OTHER BABIES THAT BELONGED TO SOMEONE ELSE..…[Read more]

Absolutely terrible question… I’d love to know how experienced the journo in question was… someone with a few years under their belt wouldn’t ask it (I’d like to think) but someone who’s green and hasn’t done those types of stories mightn’t have the “smarts”.

Sorry… as a good lil’ journo I’ll protect my sources…

Russ,

To clarify, I played no part in the original post, but I was amused that 2 forum members fell for it.

cheers

Thanks for the 2 responses I’ve received so far.
