Owned!

Written by  Milking It

OPINION: One of the country’s biggest remaining newspapers, NZME’s NZ Herald has been hung by the exact same woke, bullying campaigns it has been guilty of running.

And in the face of the pile-on that followed their publication of an advertisement for Hobson’s Pledge about foreshore and seabed ownership, the management at the Herald have caved in.

Last week they were fine taking paid ads from the ginger group, this week they’re not. Hobson’s Pledge hasn’t changed their stance, and claim their critics “appear not to be angry because we said anything false”.

What has changed is that a concerted campaign of bullying and claims of ‘racism’, led by Te Pati Maori, has seen the gutless wonders at NZME cave in and let the bullies own them.
