DC comics turn Superman Bi-Sexual

The Rea-Woke-ned Thoo-perman


Purely for the sake of being woke, DC Comics will soon unleash, straight out of the closet, a newly bi- sexual Superman. Undoubtedly he will join a recently camped up Robin in the fight against bad guys, villains and reprobates. Only this time, where Clarke Kent once "marched" under the flag of Truth and Justice, Thoo-perman will now ponce mincingly ( and unconvincingly ) beneath the Rainbow Flag ....

My childhood just went *POOF*.

New Zealand's Spare Continent

😉 The West Island 🤣

 
Cheeky Meme describing Australia as New Zealand's West Island

Editorial Stance of we, The Source

Our Quest for Objectivity

Do we have axes to grind? Of course we do! Most news outlets DO! Do we believe in Freedom of Expression? Yes. Do we believe that this same Freedom of Expression is being curtailed by the hate speech laws coming out soon here in New Zealand? Yes and darn it! Therefore, let it be known by the glorious words of Winston Churchill:

"Tact is the ability to tell someone to go to hell in such a way that they look forward to the trip."

"Diplomacy is the art of telling people to go to hell in such a way that they ask for directions."

These famous quotes are that by which we abide. HOWEVER ::: this so-called Churchill quote is another prime example of our honesty:- Churchill NEVER IN FACT MADE these quotes!!! : Here is the point - we don't make it up as we go. We double check our own sources while comparing and contrasting their accuracy and whether or not they are interesting. We also triple check their socio-political leanings. If we make a mistake in any of our articles, we will fix it and apologise. In short, Let it be factual but never liable. Be Kind - but also be HONEST, hard and to the point. Here is where we, The Source, would LIKE to think we stand in a media bias chart. We'd like to think we sit smack dab in the middle. 

If you DON'T think this is so, please feel free to let us know. 

Another perspective of a media bias chart for New Zealand. Note, once again, that this is where WE, The Source, would once again, like to sit. Note also the overall differences between this image and the previous. Determining where exactly each news outlet sits in a chart like this is fairly subjective. If I, the editor, for example, lean to the far right, I'm more inclined to rearrange this chart is such a way that MY outlet actually seems quite mild. And vice versa. So the decision is ultimately up to you, our beloved reader!
