Like selling your soul like the BFD or Whale Oil you reference? Paid for attack articles. What a disgrace.

News break for you. Ardern has gone. Keep up.

What ? .. like the last lot of Labour leaders did or were forced to do to even have a spot on the front bench ?

And fed the media to keep the continuing trail of never ending pink tinged propaganda flowing ..

All those millions Labour tossed to the Media .. no wonder there are so many skrewed & buckling media outfits falling over and/or jettisoning staff left right & centre now

What did they honestly think might eventuate when Labour's tossing unlimited pots of taxpayer Ca$h in all directions suddenly stopped ?

Would Chippie or Ardern have been seen giving away their pay increases to charities ?

Nah, the MSM Opposition Party would not demand they donate any of their pay (just like they have not demanded Willie jackson et al donate their accomodation allowance). Because :

1. They like Labour
2. Labour was spending money on everyone, not cutting back to right size and be responsible
3. Unlike Luxon, Ardern and Hipkins have not had success in the private sector. To the MSM Opposition Party, if you are very rich and in the National Party then you are automatically on thin ice.

We all ultimately put up with this and so deserve the governments we get.

Adern froze politicians wages in 2018.
This is the first rise since then.
Keep up.

Comparing MSM to Whale Oil? 🤣🤣🤣
Cameron Slater is an absolute piece of crap who was paid to write attack articles targetting people personally, whether there was any truth to the matter or not.

Media received Government funding, which is not unusual. The conditions were in regards respecting Te Tiriti & coverage of Maori issues.
Why that triggers people so much is interesting and says a lot about them than anything else.

What has that got to do with the price of fish?

He raised a good point.

The Maori conditions are just one aspect.

The bigger issue is the perceived bias and soft-ball questioning by journos on the previous govt. Contrast to the stiff opposition the media have put up to literally everything the new govt has done since being elected.

There should never be any conditions aside from a basic scope/intent/ring fencing.

Or possibly some stories on issues that are real such as our economy, what inflation is doing to harm us all, or lo & behold, send a reporter out into regional New Zealand and find out what is good or bad in their lives today.

Could even report on the hundreds of millions of dollars extortions from Ngai Tahu regarding power projects in the South Island or how Far North Iwi have destroyed the mussel spat industry and stifled the green lip mussel industry all over NZ as a result.

But I doubt any of the so called news media would do that, or even have reporters that have the intelligence to understand any of it.

It Would be great for all the above to be reported.

However we are too busy watching cat clips and someone with a strong opinion spouting entertaining but uncorroborated and unverified nonsense to watch and support wide ranging “News” satisfying a wide range of people.

Tell me you are actually smarter than this?
I'm not convinced.
