The likely next Canadian PM is a master at showing how to deal with news media who aren’t interested in asking questions on behalf of the viewer but are more interested in pushing their own narrative. It also happens here in NZ. We look at some examples from Poilievre and also ex-Fox News host Tucker Carlson, and then we give you a test to see how well you would do.
Over the break, there were a number of farewells, resignations & sackings. And they were all excellent. January was not just a “good day” but a “good month”!
DEI has been about simply ramming down and enforcing left-wing viewpoints and ideologies rather than delivering good services and products and rewarding effort and excellence. But there has been a cultural tipping point – finally.
Family First is calling for an immediate end to new prescribing of puberty blockers due to the clear lack of quality probative evidence of efficacy and safety.
According to the NZ Herald, “nine in 10 Kiwi kids endure trauma by age 8 – new research”. But the media’s hysterical coverage of the latest research on families is a manufactured crisis. The academics have done nothing to help their cause either.
We all knew that the media would really struggle on the 20th January 2025 to remain impartial and report the facts around the Inauguration of the President. Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is difficult to manage – but it’s so easy to observe. Here’s just four examples from the first 12 hours of the Trump presidency – in order of stupid to stupider to downright idiotic.
The NZ media is facing further criticism about its bias – but interestingly, it’s coming from its own senior journalists. Did the media not get the (trust) memo?
According to a Ministry of Health report released today, abortions have increased 23% since Jacinda’s ‘kind’ law was passed. And there was a 67% increase in late term abortions between 2021 and 2023. 45 children per day are killed in the womb in New Zealand. Anybody who has viewed the ultrasound of an unborn child will know that abortion is a gross abuse of human rights. It worked in the 70s but it’s flat earth science now. We’ve seen the ultrasounds. We’ve seen the foetal development. To support abortion, you have to park your conscience and science in a deep dark vault.
The Education Review Office (ERO) wants to treat parental input as ‘hostile’ when it comes to sexuality and gender indoctrination in schools, including primary schools. You need to treat the ERO as hostile. We take a deep dive into their report released this week (including some of their downright misleading statements), and explain what you need to do to protect your children.
1News was so keen to push a certain narrative on a story on Monday night that they forgot to do some basic fact-checking of their report. It’s quite amusing – but is this an example of why trust in the media is declining, or just a really silly mistake by a super-busy reporter who didn’t have time to check all the details? Keen to hear your thoughts.
