A photograph showing senior TVONE staffers dressed as black and white minstrels from a Christmas party has surfaced after initial denials of its existence. Senior management says that even though they have apologised, mass sackings are the only option.
Maori Party spokes-he-she-it-whatever-person, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, said it showed a chronic example of systematic institutional racism which was covered up by the honky colonial oppressors running TVONE.
She also said that the front bench of TVONE News was completely lacking in diversity: that needed to change pronto, and she wanted at least half of the faces to be brown.
She also called for the staff involved in the airing of the original 1960s Black and White Minstrel Show to be wheeled from their rest homes, apologise, be publicly shamed and made to wash the feet of oppressed Maori in a public square.
To keep up with overseas trends, she demanded that the statue of Sir Edmund Hillary be toppled as it was an example of White supremacy and was an insult to the ancestors of people of colour as he had stood on the head of Maunga Everest.
The local body responsible has apologised and said it will be removed immediately.
