So the problems that WelNix face in getting exposure is clear when you look at the major websites, the NZ Herald which focuses on Auckland obviously has the license story as breaking news on the top of every page. Stuff, the Wellington based and focussed news site has the announcement buried under sports > football and not even on the home page, let alone as a breaking news anouncement.

The guy who runs stuff seems to be a tool. 

I complained at one point about an announcement and special banner about a tsunami warning- that didn't link to anything. I had family camping right on the coast and rang up Civil Defence  and found out that it was in PNG and not for NZ and I did that before they managed to get an article up with the correct info. 

He was snarky and didn't say sorry or even the weasley 'sorry that you had that experience', but said thanks for the feedback, like I was an employee daring to give him, the great and glorious one a suggestion. 

He also wrote a retarded editorial about the beach campaign- pointing out that it was glorious because : "This is about what ordinary Kiwis - not "taxpayers", just people - can achieve by each chipping in just a little."

Funnily- that's exactly what we do as taxpayers with our under-resourced conservation estate and many, many other very worthy things we do as ordinary kiwis and taxpayers. 

Check the other sites daily, but certainly not stuff.
