Hypocrisy or Human?

Hypocrisy or Human?

Sir Bob Jones nopunchespulled.com The hypocrisy of the left when it comes to personal gain, never surprises me. The latest spectacular example is news that Britain’s Guardian newspaper is paying its editor, thanks to a massive 42% pay rise, a NZ$1m annual salary. Like Stuff here, the

What Will Happen if Independent Media Dies?

Can you imagine a New Zealand in which independent media is gone and all that remains is a small group of large media organisations muzzled by funding from the government? It’s not some faraway dystopia. It is already happening. With the rapid corporate consolidation of traditional news outlets and

When Andrea Vance Got Things Wrong

Andrea Vance, the former News of the World reporter, has written a book purported to be from the point of view of insiders in the National Party. The problem is that almost all of her claims are from anonymous cowards too gutless to own their spiteful and patently false recollections.

Pushing a Steady Diet of Fear-Porn

There are just a handful of books which I can say truly revolutionised my thinking, like an electric bolt of enlightenment. One of those is Bjorn Lomborg’s The Skeptical Environmentalist. Sure, the book has its minor inaccuracies, maybe (the attacks on it are almost entirely either pure whinging, or

Pot and Kettle Hypocrisy?

Sir Bob Jones nopunchespulled.com Stuff recently published an (accurate) article on a phenomenon they described as shrinkflation. This is the practice of manufacturers combatting rising costs by maintaining their historic nominal prices and packaging but reducing the amount of contents. They gave numerous examples, such as Beehive matches in

Govt Paid NZ Media for Puff Pieces

Govt Paid NZ Media for Puff Pieces

Last year New Zealand hosted the APEC online conference. Unbelievably for a wholly online conference, it still came with a price tag of $76 million dollars. We can at least tell you where $93,000 of that $76 Million dollars went. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs paid  Stuff and the

Last year Stuff reported on the extent of media bludging from government troughs. It is eye-watering just how much taxpayer coin some media organisations have availed themselves of. Media companies large and small claimed funding from the Government’s media package last year. In April 2020, Broadcasting, Communications and Media
