Fake News – MSM Consistently Proves the Point
The headline on Stuff (originally from The Age) reads Coronavirus: A man got Covid-19 three times. Should we be worried about reinfection? Simple headline. Simple answer: Yes, of course we should be. This potentially makes it far worse than we ever expected it to be and the ability of
Is Stuff Stuffed?
I admit that a number of uncharitable headlines sprang to mind when I was planning this article in my head. I could be the bigger person of course and pretend that I wasn’t getting a small degree of Schadenfreude from Stuff‘s plight but I am far too honest

The BFD Stuff up of the Day
At first glance, it appears that the Stuff journalist has got the maths wrong as $52,800 is 10% of Bloomfield’s salary not 20%. However further reading reveals that the pay cut is for only 6 months. So it is not a stuff up but it is a very
Brace Yourselves for the Deluge
Disappointed at being summarily tossed off the front pages by a real crisis that is actually killing people, the purveyors of the fake crisis that is never going to kill anyone have sent out a missive to over 400 media outlets telling them to get with the program and get
Don’t Set up Your Home Office in Reach of the Wine Rack
I was fortunate to have had some work to do, actual work, over Friday and Saturday. Sure, there’s bits and pieces I can do from home but it’s not productive work, so it’s a small blessing to head off t’shop with a job a’waiting, even

Ardern is Always Right
Stuff, yesterday morning, congratulated us all on getting through and advised us, for posterity, “It may pay to jot down a few notes – send yourself an email…because memory fades.” It certainly does, especially when left-wash is happening right in front of our eyes. They are rewriting everything ‘Dear
Yes, Michelle Boag Really Did Say That
Rachel Smalley finally has the monkey off her back. She can no longer be considered to be the stupidest woman on the radio. Rachel Smalley used to tell anyone in the NewstalkZB newsroom who would care to listen that she was the only “serious journalist” in the place. Yet she
Six Questions for Neil Ferguson
UK television and radio media are just as left-wing as they are in New Zealand. The Spectator highlights two interviews, each carried out very differently, on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme. Health Secretary Matt Hancock, of the Conservative party, got a roasting – as one would expect. The National
Pavel Morozov in the Great White North
From the Hitler Youth to the Pavel Morozov cult in the Soviet Union, to LGBTQ activism, authoritarian regimes have always had an unholy fascination with getting their ideological hooks into children’s minds. In Orwell’s 1984, “Nearly all children nowadays were horrible.” The state’s “child heroes” are nasty

Pell Witch-Hunters Must Face Justice
The time is long past for a far-reaching inquiry into the administration of justice in the Australian state of Victoria. Victorian police and public officials have been embarrassed and exposed by a series of public scandals and unsavoury revelations. Police and government politicians strenuously denied that the state had
Is Duncan Garner a Moron or a Lethargic Baboon?
Take your pick, Duncan Garner wears both descriptions particularly well and a few less flattering ones too. Once upon a time, I enjoyed the AM show, but that was before their anti-Trump rhetoric infected the minds of people I once considered more discerning of the facts. Garner and his
