Well NBR and Veuve Clicquot really know how to pile on the FAIL!
Things are pretty bad when even the moderate David Farrar has lost trust and respect in NBR.
My message to the National Business Review is that you have lost something infinitely more valuable than my subscription. You have lost both my respect and my trust. That is hard to do, and even harder to undo.
Search Veuve Clicquot Fail and look at all the NZ blogosphere retribution. Which leads me to use a phrase that is used in the war against tobacco giants to describe the dishonest actions of NBR and their advertiser who strong armed them Veuve Clicquot.
