This is a great example of how genAI steals from us all on multiple levels. It's stolen a promotional spot for real books and authors, it's stolen a job from an actual journalist who could have compiled this, it's stolen an opportunity for parents to be recommended good NZ books for their kids
#4 sounds like a lovely book but I didn't write it. Have had whānau up and down the country send me clippings lol
Whoever put together this list that has been circulated to regional papers, didn't fact check.

The argument went "and why not? Bc objective journalism isn't 'objective', it's about recognising the range of *legitimate* worldviews within our community, and in doing so, reflect its subjective interests. And obvs, fascism, paedophilla etc are counter to those, and hence it doesn't get a voice."

And now someone has uploaded a version that wasn't filmed off a TV.
There's also the torrent link there, which is probably the fastest way to download the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT if you want to save the file locally to your computer.

I highly recommend watching this segment, not just because the CBS News execs and the White House didn’t want you to, but because these men were tortured and they deserved to have their voices heard.

A group called "Robins des ruelles" or Robins of the Alleys claimed responsibility for the heist. The food was distributed to the community in protest of predatory grocery inflation, that is feeding record profits.

I’m so shocked how did this happen. 20+ years of following politics and being a student of history and having a masters in public policy covering public finance and macroeconomic policy told me that this could not *wait sorry* this is exactly what would happen never mind.
Government books bleaker as surplus gets further away, deficits grow

The government's financial position is looking worse for longer with a delay in getting to surplus and bigger deficits, according to new Treasury forecasts.

#nzpol Just catching up with the HYEFU data today - but the data looks grim pretty much across the board. One data point stood out to me - the economy will be cumulatively $28.3bn smaller at the next election than predicted by Treasury at the last election.

Do you think we could aspire to not be racist?
Could we aspire to think there is more to life than profit?
Could we aspire to thinking a habitable environment is worth investment?
Could we aspire to think beyond the car and the atomised individual that drives it?
May we still aspire to empathy?

'Opportunity to stamp my own mark': Chris Hipkins promises a different Labour
The last election saw Labour's six years in government come to an end, and Hipkins returning to the opposition benches just 10 months after becoming prime minister.

This is such patronising bullshit. We’re not aspiring to “unrealistic” things like a three-day work week, a holiday house and a pony. We want kids fed, a health system, a role in life for everyone. Those things aren’t unrealistic, they’re a *choice* successive governments are making to deny us.
