| 472166 | 2006-07-20 09:25:00 | Yup, did you see him tonight again on the news, I rest my case. If this guy gets to be PM, we are in real trouble, and Muldoon always said he would be one day. Horrors. A bad flashback from the past. | zqwerty (97) | ||

| 472170 | 2006-07-20 22:44:00 | I have always liked the guy. Not because he is a good politician, but because every now and then he throws a spanner in the works and upsets the politically correct. It keeps everyone else on their toes. The man has BALLS (something lacking in the government). I doubt he will ever make Prime Minister, but I'm damn sure he would make a better one than that gutless wonder called Brash. Show me anything he has done other than trying to kiss your a$$ As for the media ... Boohooo. So he made it harder to do your job. Cry me a river. The media (and I laughed at the previous poster who aptly named them hyenas) are nothing more than a school of paid sharks, one hint of blood and they all go into a feeding frenzy. We see it with any murders, etc that are going on, some of us have noticed how biased they are in certain respects (if the story involves a white dude and money, it wont make the news, throw a Maori or Polynesian in there and its news for weeks) etc etc. Good on ya Winnie for standing up and telling them where to get off. |

Pita Sharples, whenever that guy talks he talks sence. He has the head and the heart in the right place. Closeup " Did the babies look peaceful in death" Pita "No they looked dead" |

| 472172 | 2006-07-20 22:58:00 | Closeup " Did the babies look peaceful in death" Pita "No they looked dead" reminds me of a something I was told few days ago in regards to the Lois Dear murder enquiry. I heard this 2nd hand so not sure if this is true but apparantly. Paul Holmes was interviewing a police spokesperson and one of his questions was: Were the injuries she suffered serious? :confused: There was a long pause as the police tried to decipher what the hell he was asking. My response would have been yeah Paul the injuries were serious....SHE DIED!!!! |

| 472173 | 2006-07-20 23:04:00 | That news item on closeup was the worst heart string emotive shove-a-mike-in-the-weaping-family-face-and -try-to-make-them-cry type Holmes reporting that I have ever seen. Closeup has totally lost the plot of what it is meant to be and is now just a holmes clone. Its the total degredation of current affairs to emotional sensationalism without any attempt at presenting news. |

Susan used to be quite good when it was the Holmes show, but now the programme has turned to crap. Sainsbury on the other hand should have stayed as a political reporter at the Beehive. Has no balls or sense of humour |

| 472175 | 2006-07-21 00:06:00 | Actually I was thinking about the primary school teacher who was murdered (a sad situation) but I suspect there are many other examples of emotional exploitation being mistaken for journalism by closeup, such as the one you saw, which I missed. | netchicken (4843) | ||
