We know the legacy media are fake news, but there are some stories that are so fake that the ol’ Bullshit Meter goes into overdrive at first sight. One such story was widely reported yesterday: “Donald Trump ‘offered German company funds to develop vaccine for sole US use’” screamed the
This is, without doubt, one of the crassest headlines I’ve ever seen. It is the lowest of the low and clearly shows what the true agenda of climate change fanatics is.
“They are us” does not appear to include licenced gun owners in this cartoon by Rod Emmerson.

It’s said that crises bring out the best and worst in people. In the case of the legacy media, it’s brought out almost nothing but the worst. A social media meme sums it up best: What’s worse is that the so-called ‘quality’, taxpayer-funded media are
Which is it? Without as the headline says, or with as the text says? The article makes it clear it is “with”, but that probably doesn’t generate as many clicks. What do you think dear readers? Is it a genuine stuff up by Newshub or a deliberately duplicitous clickbait
How cool is this? A Kiwi teacher with the exact same name as the city she is teaching at! On the other hand, maybe it is yet another Stuff up from the NZ Herald? If anyone is a right “Ningbo” it is possibly the reporter that wrote this article. If
Here are two iron-clad rules you should always keep handy in your Bullshit Detection Kit: 1. If a headline claims “Study shows…” or “Science says…” assume that it doesn’t, until proven otherwise. 2. Whatever a “Fact-Checker” says, assume that they’re wrong or lying, until proven otherwise.
The arrogance of the legacy media knows no bounds. Even as they irresponsibly whip up the flames of panic, they refuse to accept any culpability. Instead, they point the finger of blame at anyone, anywhere, but them. Donald Trump gets the blame, of course. If that fails, then they just

Stuff March 12th had an article about the coronavirus “outbreak” officially being declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation. Within that article, it states that New Zealand now has two cases of the virus. I suspect the article was written some time ago in preparation for the declaration but
It’s no secret that the legacy media are one of the most ridiculously egotistical professional groups on the face of the planet. Mainstream journalists tend to have grossly inflated self-regard – and a complete lack of any ability to self-reflect. Mainstream journalists are, in my experience, almost completely
