Ellis in Wellyland

I have a confession to make ...

I learnt something last night after watching 10 minutes of reporters talking to commentators, fans in Auckland, the Mayor of Auckland, fans in Valencia, and any old hack who had an opinion on the Americas Cup.

I just don't give a shit about the Americas Cup.

Bring on the Rugby World Cup, and in the meantime can someone tell TV One they report news.

  • "can someone tell TV One they report news."

    That's a common misconception, as is the idea that TV3 does these days either.

  • The Americas' Cup is news - it's just it should be NZ won, here was the key moment, here is one expert view - next story.

  • The America's Cup is actually big business. As we know "Auckland Inc" got sponsored by the NZ taxpayer to try to gain the event next time or at least to try to sell a few more Auckland "Plastic Fantastics" to rich Europeans. It also means Trade ministers get to escape a NZ Winter.
