I find them challenging, but not in the way which Robert would assume. "I have nothing to offer given that I have next to no involvement with Fairfax Media these days. All I know is what I read online and in the newspapers and I can assure you that I am certainly not avoiding your question. There is a misconception here that I am heavily involved with Fairfax where I can assure you that today, I have next to no involvement as I run my business not Fairfax." Interesting statement. "THESE Days" ".. I can assure you that TODAY, I have next to no involvement" Yep that answered the question clearly. It is all about choosing the right words to say isn't it. Perhaps no relationship at this moment, but in the past? Or Robert, are you telling us that you were one of the 550? I love Roberts posts…

Interesting statement.

“THESE Days”

Perhaps 'discovery team' is not the correct term, so what is the term? you know, the panel/advice you gave (or still give) domain and receive free products for (at the least) My original post was only a pis-take but it appears to have hit a nerve. So the question is - do 550 staff = 1 Simon Baker? It seems not many people are laughing at Fairfax Robert.

Surely they are just as evil and nasty as the numbats at News who supposedly control the ex-one man band at REA. News got rid of one bloke.......Fairfax 550....sure most in editorial and print but a few digital folks are out as well. Hi Robert,

I will settle this bit of online genious - the Fairfax Digital Discovery Team has never ever convened a single meeting as it simply does not exist. I just embellished the concept as an excuse so as to avoid being on the REA panel which I kept telling a persistent Simon that it was a conflict of interest for me. So REA keep referring to the Fairfax Digital Discovery Team which then prompted REA to then establish their very own team. Sorry guys it simply never existed which I must admit had those who knew laughing every time REA kept referring to this amazing Discovery team. There you go AJ - I hope you and all friends at REA will get a chuckle at who had the last laugh :) :) :) :) Apologies to AJ – I declined the interview!
