There is no crisis in NZ

After jumping up 400 points this morning, the Dow Jones melted down 600 points to end negative 200 points – this after China crashed again overnight yet the mainstream media’s inability in NZ to do anything other than social media click bait stories while stock markets melt is damning.

One would’ve hoped as stock markets crash that the media would have moved on from Key  talking about flags and started focusing on the 305 000 kids in poverty, 5.9% unemployment and the fact this Government have simply relied on rebuilding from a natural disaster, selling cheap milk powder to China and a property bubble in Auckland as an economic plan.

Let’s look at the stories that the NZ Herald online have deemed more important than this massive global financial correction…

Millie Elder-Holmes’ naked bum – while delightful, isn’t really as important as economic armageddon.

A white blonde privileged journalist who is shocked to discover she’s not the centre of the Universe – which is tragic news for all white blonde privileged types but seems, what’s the word I’m looking for, insignificant, compared to capitalism having a fainting spell.
The tedious secrets and scandals of Fashion Week – seeing as the sausage skin industry makes more money than the entire Fashion Industry, how this tiny petty world of clothes horses and walking eating disorders manages to be more important a feature than looming hardship is anyone’s guess.
A cow called Richie McCow is going to be killed – I don’t even know where to begin with this story.
It’s like a conspiracy of ignorance, focusing on petty bullshit that has no relevance to the real world.

    • A worm was massacred in my garden this morning by a thrush. It was a wild worm, not one of those dangerous ones in worm farms. That didn’t make the news either.

      The PM patted Bodhi the dog, instead of sympathizing with Pike River victims’ families. Moonbeam caught a thrush this morning.

  1. The government has sold schools in areas of rising rolls,most have been sold to developers,seems high rise schools are to be the answer.
    Herald article today.
    Wakeup New Zealand article says law society objects to court cases in secret because of national security,it is not in line with bill of rights.

    This government is out of control,its collecting money all over the place,who for we might add, the sales and money collecting is speeding up,Something is not right ,very suspicious behaviour by Key

  2. The whole msm situation to report news has become so unbelievably hideous, particularly when there’s a likely international economic meltdown about to descend on us all (including NZ, despite what FJK and Blinglish say), I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry!

  3. Fletchers and the Government are mutually inclusive, despite Fletchers being predominantly overseas owned now?

  4. Our MSM have a butterfly mentality – fluttering around until they see a bright flower; landing on it and sucking away the contents for a few moments before becoming tired of it and deserting it for the next brightest flower in the garden. When they have run out of flowers they turn into flies and head straight for the nearest pile of s…

  5. Ritchie McCaw and Rachael Hunter are big news we can’t get enough of them, I think Rachael should be a Dame in the next New Years Honours List, along with Ritchie.
