Sad to hear
This is legitimately sad to hear, and the strangest part is that many of Stuff's community titles were making money, unlike their daily mastheads. Many journos are seeing this as an opportunity to have a crack at these communities independently, so hopefully it's not the last we see of some of these papers (or at least something similar in an area).
There's still great money to be made in real estate advertising for small papers - the weekly Oamaru Mail has about 20-30 pages of house ads in there every week.

Somewhere in the archives back when it was still a broadsheet...

I'd pay, for the whole thing to be behind a paywall I can't access.

Interesting article, I wonder if the author ever contemplated getting a life?

It’s got to be a hoax surely? What kind of miserable fluffybunny gets worked up enough to write an article about observations towers being overrated

He's just salty because he never got to interview Starbrite and Clark about the details of their first date....

How far away do you reckon that Aussie journo was from asking what position Starbrite Jr was conceived in?

On one hand, that journo is a creep. Seriously, asking a PM those kind of questions is beyond crass and stupid when he could be asking actual important questions about policies and issues.
On the other hand, Rainbow Brite and Gaylord are doing interviews about baby and dating and other vomit-inducing fluff for fucking everyone, so I guess creepy journo thought if I can't beat em, I'll join em.
