Indignant over the media's indignation. "The media should report true things in proportion to their importance" – Jamison Foser

NZME's Ryan Bridge's examples of "extreme, radical ideas" a political party could campaign on are... a separate Māori parliament, and re-nationalising power companies.
Mmm, very scary, Ryan.

Why, you may ask, is a NZ news org like Stuff reporting some fake outrage about a mayor of a small London town with a population of 12,186? Because Stuff chooses to carry culture war bullshit from The Telegraph, a right-wing UK paper. Decide for yourself if this is newsworthy.

it’s insane how mainstream media still uniformly acts like 2024 was a watershed, Reaganesque societal turning point when it’s obvious ~15% of Americans just swung it because they thought there actually was a “make eggs cheaper” button Joe Biden was refusing to hit.

trump approval hits a new low in today's yougov/economist poll. now worse than he was in yougov's data at this point in 2017 economist.com/interactive/tr…

(And of course, NZME has treated the Tim Jago story all along as being about name suppression or historic abuse crimes, and not addressed at all the political scandal of current deputy PM David Seymour's role in protecting him)

I enjoyed this picture on NZ Herald of all the media stories about former Act Party president Tim Jago because not a single one is from the NZ Herald.
(It's all RNZ and one via the NZME-owned regional paper Hawke's Bay Today)

I get it, Ryan: your right-wing government is turning out to be really shit and you're panicking. Blaming workers is of course how you keep your job at NewstalkZB. But you'll be alright, bro. You always fall upwards.

Ryan also complains about the "banner wavers" (I think he's talking about protesting nurses & teachers) preventing doing business in NZ from being as easy as possible. We already top measures of ease of business. Ryan is full of it.
English
NZME's Ryan Bridge says NZ needs a "grow" spurt (yes, the typo is in the headline because literally no one there is reading this), & asks for a democracy that got rich by increasing the size & influence of the govt (but NOT Scandinavian) so: the US, Germany, Japan.
$1m please.

Look, I’m going to give it to her. “We had a black president and it made us all insane” is the most cogent diagnosis of the American Right that i’ve ever seen and I’m genuinely impressed that she’d just come out and say it.
Republicans against Trump@RpsAgainstTrump
Megyn Kelly: “We haven't felt like ourselves since Obama. He was such a slick snake…He was so divisive in his messaging...He’s the one who started to inject race when no one had been doing it… Obama is the reason Trump came about. They say ‘Trump is divisive’. He’s the antidote, the answer to the divisiveness of Obama.”

Questions for Stuff:
Do you consider the Utah governor a reliable source? He also said he wished he could blame the killing on an immigrant.
Even if this were true, what conclusion are you hoping your audience will take from this? That he was 'corrupted' somehow?

This is a 13 second video of Charlie Kirk throwing out hats to the crowd. Just real top-tier reporting, I can see why you ask for donations, Stuff, throw a few more journos on this essential story.

the WALL STREET JOURNAL wrote an article BASED ON THREE LETTERS THAT ARE A COMMON STAMP FOR BULLET MANUFACTURERS
you people are genuinely evil

Breaking: Ammunition engraved with transgender and antifascist ideology was found inside the rifle authorities believe was used in Kirk’s shooting, sources say on.wsj.com/42jMYDq

God there is so much our local media could be doing with this story that's relevant to NZ but instead they're just copy-pasting "having a difference of opinion is now a death sentence" American bullshit.
English
Stuff was very eager to do a puff piece last year on this National MP "living the dream" but hasn't yet got around to reporting he hid 25 properties in a family trust. I'm sure they'll get onto it though. I fully expect* our media to hound him until he quits!

A power the media has is every time a politician wants to say something, or even appear in public, they can demand they address a lingering question, or else they won't platform the message the politician wants to get out.
What's crazy is they have this power all the time.

For the first time in my life, I’m genuinely frightened about being a public sector worker.

For the first time in my life, I’m genuinely frightened about being a newspaper columnist.

Local media like Stuff is doing rolling coverage of Kirk like the pope just died, but either they have no idea what a extremist he was or know but want to launder his reputation for some reason. You're better off reading his Wikipedia page.

Things Stuff could've asked Seymour: which New Zealanders?
Do you support any of Kirk's positions, such as great replacement theory, ending the separation of church and state, that Martin Luther King Jr was a "bad man", opposing abortion for rape? Like, you have him right there.
English
Every NZ media outlet had to do a "who is Charlie Kirk?" story because they knew most of their audience had no idea who he was, but also if Seymour tells them his death "struck a chord with New Zealanders" they'll believe him and go running to the opposition for comment.
