Gareth Morgan Ping Pong Journalism

I have been challenged to a game of table tennis by a NZ Herald sports reporter. Personally, I have better things to do with my time – talk about issues which are important to NZ. I think a better way to measure a person’s character is to know what they stand for rather than how they play a game of table tennis. Have a look at the email exchange below.

Dear Mr Morgan,
 
Greetings. I work as a journo with the Herald and  am challenging each party leader to a game of table tennis, to write up for the paper as a series before the election campaign begins in earnest. It would be awesome fun to take you on. There is a stadium in Epsom. It would take oh say 1 hour all up I reckon to play 4-5 games and then have a chat after about the game and whatever else about sport and fitness. A photographer would be present.
 
I am looking to do this within the next few weeks. Is there a time and a place that you can name?
 
Best regards
Steve
