Bruce Ansley comments on the media during the past week. He looks at journalists reporting on Press Gallery drinking in the papers. Reporting on the National Party conference is commented on. Ruth Richardson’s media campaign is analysed in New Zealand newspapers.

Ansley critiques the Wellington Evening Post covering the case of the death of an overweight woman for revelling in a person’s disability. Tom Scott is giving up political reporting and concentrating on cartooning for the Post.
