The newspapers give us a mix of interest and importance, what we want to read and what we should read, but last week the balance got out of control. There was mass coverage of the Olympic Games (interest) and the Prime Minister's overseas tour (importance) where the press coverage was 'totally inadequate".

A weekly review of the press in New Zealand from the New Zealand Broadcasting Corporation (NZBC). Theme is Miles Davis, Milestones
