The terms NIMBY (Not-in-my-backyard) and YIMBY (Yes-in-my-backyard) describe negative and positive attitudes towards building higher density housing. Based on a series of newspaper articles that reported on a Sydney council hiring a community planning advocate and comments by a Liberal party candidate regarding housing supply, this paper seeks to identify if NIMBY and YIMBY discourses exist in reader-generated comments made by self-selecting commenters. Critical discourse analysis is mobilised to examine the actors and the  framing  in the newspaper article, as well as the discursive strategies used in the readers’ comments. The paper finds the readers’ comments are dominated by NIMBY discourse but does find evidence of a YIMBY public discourse.
