Media Obsession

Written by  Milking It

OPINION: The mainstream media's obsession with (sleazy) 'tabloid' issues were to the fore at Fonterra's recent media conference to discuss its interim results.

One weird question thrown at outgoing chief executive Miles Hurrell was if he can rule out standing as a NZ First candidate in this year's general election.

"I can rule that out," replied Hurrell.

This prompted chair Peter McBride to afterwards tell the journalist in question that one could easily think he was writing for a tabloid rather than a business publication!
