With journalists as 'au fait' with their subject matter as this guy, is it any wonder the average LFAO holds them in contempt??
But it certainly does sound a lot more scary for the average citizen to read...

Anybody seeing NZs "news" organizations as anything other than propaganda outlets is beyond help...
The media only know ‘AK47’, ‘M16’ and ‘assault weapon’!
They've (the crims) managed to make a Mini-14 even more inaccurate - I wouldn't have believed it possible.
The "Taupo Times" turned up in my rural mailbox. Its good quality fire lighting paper and little else. Its now owned by STUFF, that paragon of virtue signalling. I just whipped through it to see if it actually conveyed any real news. 16 pages (sides). 1 page (not a typo) of any real news: an article on the deteriorating Chateau and another on a scam artist engineer signing off building producer statements with other peoples signature.Quote:

I imagine most other regional newspapers have lowered themselves to this pathetic standard, by sacking any journalists that actually investigated news worthy articles in their region and hiring social media influences???
C'mon @Ross Nolan, can you refrain from using facts and keep calling this an AK please.
Sorry Dude (please forgive me if I misgendered you), I will ensure that in future I 1) try and stay on the societally approved path, or 2) just please myself.Quote:

Wow shows how lazy you can be and work as a journalist, you'd think you would at least do a quick Google image search and make sure the firearm in question at least had a passing resemblance to an AK rifle.
I had thought about applying to be a stuff editor, as even as someone with dyslexia I'd let through less spelling mistakes, missing words and the wrong words

an d heres me thinking you lot would do as our grandparents /parents did and collect the aforementioned 90secs silence and tear pages into squares for dunny paper in the holiday bach longdrop.A "womans weekly" or two can be made available to read(also makes good printed laxative) if what your doing is proving somewhat arduous or you longdrop has a splendid view of the country.
you cant do it with political flyers...everyone knows shit wont stick to pollies..... and you might catch adds.
Ha ha ha ha I remember getting in the shit as a young fellah because my old nana had left the Woman’s Weekly in the long drop dunny and a young Rushy tore out some pages to scrunch up for polishing the ring piece after a dump. That dunny was still in use in my early teens.Quote:

This sounds like the american reported who wrote about the womans spanish football team who were staying in palmerston north , while playing in the world cup , who departed palmerston north because they were bored. It turns out he made it up and the spanish team outed him.
They moved closer to wellington , where there pool games were.
This fuckwit has made palmerston north loose a whole lot of revenue from tourists , holiday makers etc....
It's now known as " The Invercargill of hobbit land" in Europe.Quote:

I have been surprised in recent times after chatting with retired people especially in a small local cul de sac whom do not read newspapers and get their news off Al Jazeera because... they say it is unbiased. Make no mistake these are retired self employed people or ex business owners. Amazing.
Who knows , I live here in the manawatu .
Its what you make it , not other peoples opinions.
Opinions are like assholes ...... Everbody has one !
How is this possible? The gangs would have handed in all their bad black guns at the buyback seeing as how they are such upstanding citizens!Quote:
