					<description><![CDATA[Where were the hard media questions in Suva — whether “western or Pacific-style” — about West Papua and Indonesian human rights abuses against a Melanesian neighbour? Surely here was a prime case in favour of doorstopping with a fresh outbreak of violations by Indonesian security forces – an estimated 21,000 troops are now deployed in Papua and West Papua provinces — in the news coinciding with the Forum unfolding last week.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Iran attracts an onslaught of negative media in New Zealand and Western media. But is it fair or deserved? David Robie has spent several weeks travelling in the country on sabbatical and finds the media negativity far from the reality of the “most friendly” country he has ever visited in the first of a three-part series.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The media role is reporting post-election politics has not been an edifying spectacle to watch. Put simply, the most exacerbating aspect of three weeks of coalition negotiation has not been the length of time - remarkably short by international standards - but the interminable, inane,  media commentary we've had to endure.

					<description><![CDATA[Trump's mis-use of the term "fake news" - to attack and dismiss as untrue, actual news stories - is a corruption of the term for his own purposes. Trump's actions, statements, tweets, and behaviour has all received media attention - and quite rightly so. Trump is no longer a private individual and his actions and words are no longer unimportant. As the elected leader of the United States, much of what  he says and does will be reported.]]></description>
