Media Mentions
November 6th, 2008 at 5:38 pm by David FarrarMediawatch on Sunday did a spell talking about blogs and included a chat with me, and an extract from the Two Helens ad Whale Oil and I did.
Last week I did an extended interview for around 10 minutes with Eric Young on Sky News. Was lots of fun. The dog toys even made an appearance. Also I discovered that Eric wears jeans with his suit and hides it from the camera
And Ali Ikram had some fun on Sunrise last week with our the two Helens ad.
I’m also on One’s Breakfast around 8.20 tomorrow discussing the campaign and the election.

Nicely done!
Vote:Now, if only we could work on your writing style, in order to better reflect the natural speech of the more temperate, real-world David Farrar who seems to be worlds away from the blog author and his barbs…?

Oh you mean my evil twin brother. He only gets released once every three years!

Presumably pre-written questions, but I thought Eric was good.

I have just worked out who your other really nice and extremely wealthy brother is after watching that video.
He is —-da de de da——-John Sandon from the “Antiques Show”.
Shit you could be twins. Bit chubby, slight speech impediment, except he has more hair!

New Zealand needs more fearless individuals but with intelligence.
So David Farrar gets the Robert A. Black thumbs up.
But remember, power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
In a small pimple country as New Zealand, big fish in a small pond mentality, allowed by the sheep mentality, who are too apathetic and conservative for the kill of the bad tall poppies, the list goes on and on, Winston Peters, Jim Anderton, Mathew Ridge, Marc Ellis, Paul Homes, so I hope it does not all go to your head and please feed that evil brother well and bring him out more often.

When he was on air, Clint Brown used to wear shorts.

To be honest David, I was a bit surprised to find that:
a) I was too stupid and more likely too drunk to open a new thread on your site;
or
b) You controlled all the new threads on your site and they were totally controlled by you.
That would be like a dictatorship, anti-freedom of speech and hence, would allow 15 year olds like Redbaiter the Masterbaiter, to gain some sort of credence over time.
So, why not allow us simple-dumbs to open new threads and see how they pan out?
Like, for example Facebook.

until they brought that new set in on TV3 news, Hilary Barry used to wear jandals.
