Embedded At The New Zealand First Convention Part 2: What The Media Aren’t Telling You About Tracey Martin’s Tertiary Education Push
I got quite annoyed on Tracey’s behalf with some of the media framing around her proposal. Airing comments by Steven Joyce suggesting that the extra cost of our scheme would run into the “billions of dollars” without pointing out that the true increased cost of the scheme is a mere few hundred million dollars over the extant (and wasteful) status quo, as Jo Moir has done over at Stuff, is just plain irresponsible journalism.
