| 1143428 | 2010-10-12 19:55:00 | This has been my thoughts exactly. Don't forget that the head of the games prep in India is a Kiwi, and he has also been in hot water for suggesting the Indian way of doing things is to blame for the many issues at the games... so he had primed anti-kiwi sentiment in India before Henry opened his mouth. Then along came Henry, and he was just the target they wanted... another pale fellow and a kiwi. Get Him! I also find the local broadcasters response to be inconsistent with the 'crime'. If Henrys laughter over Dicksh!t was so offensive, why has that very samme 'offensive' clip been replayed over and over in the news broadcasts? Are we trying to cause even more offense, or is there really nothing to get offended about. If the clip is genuinly offensive then the broadcastsers who have chosen to replay it over and over again are far more culpable than Henry. Henry made the comment somewhat ignorant of the possible reaction. The news media are well aware of the reaction, yet have continued to play this 'offensive' clip. Where is the reaction demanding the heads of the news editors? I concur, and I also want to congratulate M Laws, give the man some respect for standing up for himself......one of the FEW political figures with any gonads in this country! |

| 1143431 | 2010-10-12 21:13:00 | Yeah I think I said it in another thread, have to wonder how sincere / forced the apology was after taking such a staunch defiance and then doing a total 180... Poor Miss IndiaNZ too :( |

| 1143436 | 2010-10-12 22:08:00 | There has been imo a long line of stink GGs since the sixties, cant we have ones like the calibre of General Lord Fryberg? Hmmm, since the 60's?....My 1st wifes grandfather was Sir Keith Holyoake, he was GG after the Queen asked HIM twice. He declined the 1st request...Thinking 12 yrs as PM was enough! Dont know when NZ started picking its own! |

These 'shock jocks' shouldn't be crying over the fact that people are insulting them over their antics. It's just return fire :D (ie: Don't say something if you can't handle the response) |
