Police Admit to Surveilling The BFD

Police Admit to Surveilling The BFD

Some months ago, in September, I received credible information from a source that The BFD and myself were being actively monitored by Police Intelligence and that at least once we had even been mentioned in a weekly Police Intelligence briefing.

Ardern Rewards Her Loyal Media Vassals

Hey ho — another round of NZ on Air funding, another orgy of indulging the government’s bought-and-paid-for media. Of course, that’s not how the government are so blatant as to put it. Instead, they dress it up with fluffy piffle about “diversity”. Audience-focused content that

We know You Trust Us

The findings on trust in media organisations is out and the left-wing dominated media have taken a flogging. It seems that the public is well attuned to their lying ways and are voting with their feet. Newsroom reports: Less than half the New Zealand public now professes ‘overall trust’

Michael Flinn BFD writer Lushington D Brady expressed his opinion recently that professing Christian Scott Morrison should stop trying to cater for the woke lefties around him. He should just man up about his views and be done with it. I’ve been thinking about that in relation to the

The Most Biased NZ Media

The Most Biased NZ Media

Last year a website was set up to measure media bias in New Zealand. Both Kiwiblog and The BFD  were mentioned and rated, as were left-wing blogs and all mainstream media. Back then Newshub was rated as the most biased (towards the left) of all the mainstream media. The

The BFD is 95% powered by member dollars and the remaining 5% comes from ad revenue. The Spinoff doesn’t have genuine subscriptions because all their content is free to read. Take a look at the true source of their funding. Hint, it is not their readership. Recently The Spinoff

They Don’t Even Have to Pay Their Editors!

You will see from the information below that the Government is paying the salaries of MSM Editors so that the Media organisations themselves do not have to fund the positions themselves from their own revenue. This means that the minute the Government stops the funding the Editors will lose their

Tan Chick with Funny Name Gets Her Knickers in a Twist

As you should all be aware, Lushington Dalrymple Brady is a nom de plume, and it’s a lot more interesting than my real name, believe me. But, despite its ordinariness, it’s amazing how many people manage to misspell it. Especially baristas. Mostly, this just amuses me. But, according

Media Can’t Even Admit They Lied.

The mainstream media like to pretend that they “speak truth to power”. The reality is that they do nothing but speak lies for power. The mainstream media also like to pretend that they are standing up to “the corporations” — when, in fact, they’re just another corporation. And they behave
