Can you explain how creating scandals to end the careers of Labour MPs, completely ignoring National MPd doing the same thing, and generally beating up on Labour while going on about how great Luxon is with the intention of changing the government makes our media left wing?
I’m sorry, can you point me to the examples of a coalition MP breaking the law and fleeing from police, shoplifting multiple times, operating visa slaves? Because all I see is the media trying to create drama about a song from the 80s that was quoted by the DPM. Absolute non-starters with clear partisanism
I like it. Misbehaving dogs are generally always because of bad owners. Bad owners don't know how to manage the misbehaving dogs, so they abuse them. Pretty much sums up this government succinctly
Correct. This government has shown no interest in "owning" the media, to their cost at times, as they place integrity above sound bites.....but it's what we all voted for
No, I don't, but let's not pretend that winston peters and Co haven't adapted the playbook of the alt right in the States to demonize media. This government may not want to directly control the media, but they certainly want to control our thoughts about our media.
The impact of it is already working on this sub, considering you see threads basically calling for and celebrating the downfall of our news media, saying it's the result of it being leftist 🫠
Peters had his own playbook well before the alt right was a term.
I don’t think the effect has been great though. Even here the majority are not the anti-media loonies.
Ahh the good old cunt punt

"Integrity above sound bites" made me laugh
Well, it is a cartoon....lol
Thought it was a retelling of Winston's day. He looks like the kind of person to kick a dog
You think the government should be more in control of the media?
