lmfao if newsroom gets even partially cancelled for poor coverage of epstein somehow and not the fact that one of the co-founders/owners is a fervent zionist (whose partner is one of, if not THE, worst genocide propagandist in NZ)

every once in a while a post escapes containment and reminds me that straight people exist

AGAIN RNZ report this with NO reference to comments from experts in the field. Just government regurgitation of vapourware solutions Kate Newton is another name to add to the Little Green Book of journalists complicit in promoting climate change What a shameful bunch of arseholes RNZ is #nzpol

If Steve Braunias wins at the Occam Book Awards it will relegate it to the level of the Canon Media Awards after they gave a prize to Cameron 'Whaleoil' Slater An utterly contemptible person who should have been drummed out of the press years ago. #nzpol

There it is. They don't disagree with the policy, they just don't like the aesthetics of delivery. If he was VP, he'd be defending ICE kidnapping people out of their homes. There's no saving the US Democratic party.

Media shits all upset by Collins leaving. It’s because she was one of their favourite ‘off the record’ sources. Never Trust NZ Media #nzpol

RNZ commissioning opinion poll questions that are NZ First and ACT fodder is quite a look.

Not a union and don’t care about free speech - but RNZ will reprint their PR propaganda within 3 seconds of it arriving in their DM’s They just want to make sure their NAZI social media bots can scream with impunity. Turn Off RNZ #nzpol

The people on here saying Judith Collins won’t be that bad at the Law Commission are the same people that said Bishop and Willis are ‘actually ok Nats’ If you saw the Atlas network plan for NZ, you’ll remember that they plan to attack the judiciary and legal system here She is part of that #nzpol

Soon it will be legal to 'Chop Chop Nicky' #nzpol

Except official US government accounts. They're allowed to openly plan to kill people on here

Minorities are now in a fight for their lives. The legal profession will waffle about the 'independence of the commission' as minorities come under attack from increasingly reactionary law recommendations. #nzpol

'Poll shows large proportion of Labour voters to be both racist and thick'. We all knew this. They could have saved their money. #nzpol

The govt "saved" $3.2 billion by scrapping the resilience fund. They're now giving away $1.2 million for an easy, feelgood headline from NZME. If you don't hold those in power responsible for their past decisions, then why are you a journalist?

NZ taxpayers spent $6M to bring Michelin stars here and only paid $3M to the WHO. Contributing to world health seems like a much better spend to me. #nzpol

Millions of Americans are doing this in real time and it's a sight to behold.

I remember when avoidable disasters were met with the phrase - "HEADS WILL ROLL" With our media now in the pocket of the right wing, there will be no repercussions for those responsible for ignoring the effects of climate change. We can change this to "EYES WILL ROLL" #nzpol

And yet, this last week, I have been told on here by someone from the 'left' that Atlas has no presence in NZ... #nzpol

Branson refused Saudi backing for his spaceships after Khashoggi was murdered but I guess he got over it

The ultimate establishment post. Criticizing everyone else for using "fascism" for years and when you finally use it yourself, calling everyone who doesn't "perverse". Fuck you, The Atlantic! You normalized their message with your endless paranoid scare campaign against so-called "wokeness".

I mean, they're just becoming a joke now. Printing farmer's opinions about what should be done about highways damaged by storms with NO REFERENCE to climate change and the role of said farmers in it! The quicker these 'journalists' are looking for a job waiting tables, the better. #nzpol

RNZ just reposting this from the Far Right aligned CNN. Not surprisingly, it doesn't mention climate change. That's because RNZ wants to foster climate change denial. They only care about clicks that please their National Party bosses. #nzpol

And yet we still get chastised on here for criticising RNZ and the excuses for journalists that they employ. Weirdly some of you think that all the evil is confined to ZB and the Herald. #nzpol

People calling for a boycott of the Summer Olympics. It will gain no traction. Our media have a huge file with "Don't Mix Sport And Politics" emblazoned on the front. They've already taken it out of the cupboard in preparation. You do realise how much Rebel Sport pay them for ads eh? #nzpol

Guess which state broadcaster in NZ regularly use CNN as their source from the USA? Of course it’s RNZ Expect to see them repeating these lies in order to protect the Trump aligned government of NZ #nzpol

As the world reels from the turmoil in Minneapolis, our brave ‘journalists’ post about paninis. Remember that this is the guy that calls support for the Palestinian people ‘genocide chic’ - HIS WORDS But you still follow him. #nzpol

When I say that NZMedia are COMPLICIT in the rise of fascism in NZ, I do hope you understand that I mean ALL of MSM. Some of you may think it's just NewstalkZB etc. that are responsible. I mean ALL of mainstream media. Including people like Paula Penfold, John Campbell and Marc Daalder. #nzpol

This post calling Noem her friend is still up on Judith Collins facebook by the way, and there really aren't ANY good reasons at this point as to why NZ media aren't constantly pressuring her about it

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

We are Christopher Isherwood, watching the increasingly violent scenes of government thuggery and murder in the Berlin street below from our apartment window above.

RNZ will never call this murder Because they support it Just like they support genocide #nzpol

Having to research the UK passport clusterfuck brings up some odd things. Did anyone in NZ know about this? Why did NZ not go for a similar arrangement when we negotiated our FTA? #nzpol www.theurbanlist.com/a-list/eu-au...

Also worth highlighting a specific issue here for IRISH-NZ dual citizens going to the UK, who must use an Irish passport to enter the UK, not their NZ one.

Is Hipkins giving advice to Starmer or vice versa? #nzpol

Shane Jones admitting to acting like a prison matron demanding 'reciprocity' for favours he doles out and our 'Free Press' can't even make it a headline. Realise how the the media are working to dismantle morality in NZ and you'll see your future more clearly. #nzpol www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-Fz...

Why hasn't this been reported on more? This is literal Trump shake down tactics. By a government minister. This should be the headline on all our media, not a throw away paragraph. #nzpol

For a lovely example of corporatespeak BS, go no further than this article. Opines about people needing a future - all the time working in management for Z Energy fossil fuel pushers. Trust newsroom to print this crap. #nzpol

Elephant Boy is getting more unhinged by the day. Now secretly wishing for airstrikes on a sovereign country (whatever Iran's hideous leadership does - the USA is NOT the world's policeman)

We are about to witness the entire NZ media establishment make the same errors that the entire US media establishment made over the last 9yrs Every batshit crazy utterance from our populist leaders will be reported without challenge to its veracity. They‘ll just copy paste. Sod the masses. #nzpol

"support" ... did he bring a UE boom and a spotify playlist?

I’m sure Juliet Moses will be perfectly happy with the government referring to ‘globalists’ As long as she can keep hating trans people and Palestinians, she‘s all good with a little bit of anti semitism. #nzpol

Anyone saying they would work with Winston Peters and NZF is an enemy. No further explanation needed.

Had to put my gumboots on. The saliva dripping from the cake holes of Stuff, Herald and RNZ ‘journos’ reporting on Luxon’s state visit is now making the floor wet. #nzpol.

Protesters have to do this because our journalists promote his climate change denial. They'll now hound this woman and tell us how much she spent on petrol to get there. #nzpol

So Stuff's angle is "CHINESE!" They think race is important when finding buried bodies. Utter Filth #nzpol

But NZ Media GUARANTEED us that the new stadiums (funded by ratepayers) would be irresistible to these megastars. Were they lying to us on behalf of the wealthy developers? #nzpol

I think this is the very first year that I haven't seen a single film in this list. Hollywood has lost its relevance in my life. #nzpol

NZMedia screaming at each other to quickly find a banker who thinks that this is 'Great News' for the country! #nzpol

New Zealand news media actually is surprising even my cynical-ass self with it's sheer level of bootlicking craven spinelessness.
