I was listening to the news on the radio yesterday morning. There was an item about one Stefani Germanotta, who had two of her bulldogs dognapped. Three dogs were being walked by her dog walker when a gunman shot the dog walker four times in the chest and stole two of the three dogs. The third dog ran away but was later found by the police. No mention was made about the condition of the dog walker. The dog owner, known as Lady Gaga, offered a half-million-dollar reward for the return of the dogs, no questions asked. No mention was made of any concerns about the dog walker, who was only an employee anyway.

Such are the problems of the rich and famous.

Later. In a report from another source the dog walker is alive and expected to recover. This report, from CNN, did not mention that it was Trump’s fault. A Gmail account in the dogs’ names has been created to assist in the payment of the reward. No email account in the name of the employee has been mentioned, but that’s just an employee.

In another overnight shooting, police in Auckland are reported to have shot a man. No mention was made in the radio report whether the man was alive, dead or merely slightly scuffed up.

Later. In a report from another source, the man is critically injured. No mention was made in either report about how the government’s action on taking guns off the streets has made it safer for NZ citizens.

So don’t expect any relevant information to be supplied in radio news. Just the bare bones, and how it has badly affected Lady Gaga. Go somewhere else for the real story.
