Hi Mother Bear,
Difficult one this.
IMO news reports in New Zealand are slightly different to reports in, say, the UK. With a smaller population here, they have a lot less news to put in the daily paper and will repeat old stories or come up with reports bordering on the daft. Apart from the main headlines, it seems to me that much else reported here is just shrugged off.
Those anywhere else in the world reading these reports may wonder what on earth they are doing considering emigrating to New Zealand. Initially, that is. Then again, most who are considering to do so can easily log into the internet news websites themselves so your copy and pastes should not ultimately deter people from immigrating.
See no reason why you cannot keep posting news articles ... some have been a catalyst for some interesting comments!
