The Media will respond to Kim Dotcom’s up-coming revelations professionally, impartially, and with all due diligence…
.
.
“On September 15, I’m doing a Town Hall event in Auckland and I invite everyone to come there because that is going to be the day when I’m going to reveal my evidence…..my evidence around the political interference and my evidence that John Key lied.” – Kim Dotcom
It will be the best show in town.
Though the NZ Herald will probably run the story’s angle along the lines of “Mona Dotcom fails to attend event at public hall”…
Patrick Gower will rail on the evils on a resurgent Mana Party actually having a workable budget…
Rachel Smalley will comment on women attending the meeting as a ‘bunch of lardos’…
John Armstrong will demand David Cunliffe resign because he heard from a friend’s neighbour who’s cousin has a hairdresser who overheard a conversation between two strangers (Cameron Slater and Jason Ede) that Cunliffe once wrote a letter in high school to a girl he had a crush on…
Duncan Garner will run a story quoting Bill English that it’s all Labour’s fault…
Mike Hosking will apply more hair gel…
TV1 News will lead the 6PM bulletin with 5 crime stories; 2 court verdicts; a cutesy-animal story; kids doing something amazing – and cute; then the Kim Dotcom story, followed by Key responding that he can’t recall anything…
TV3 will lead with 4 crime stories; 3 court verdicts; a cutesy-animal story; kids doing something cute – and amazing; then the Kim Dotcom story, followed by Key responding that he can’t recall anything, and Patrick Gower standing in the Parliamentary Debating Chamber, looking earnest; and saying “this reflects badly on the OPPOSITION parties”…
Paula Bennett will release a “coincidentally-timed” *shock!*horror!* story that New Zealand’s beneficiaries are secretly all working and actually, we have no real unemployed or solo-mums. Prosecutions to follow.
The Dominion Post will lead with National claiming success for a 99.99% drop in crime, and Paradise on Earth in our time.
Paul Henry, on TV3’s late night slot, will ask women if they’ve had sex lately. (And if not, would they like to?)
Have I missed anything?

Keeping an eye on dodgy government appointees, crony-by-crony!
Frankly Speaking... 
We are friends with Eastasia. We are at war with Westasia.
Bought to you by the Ministry of Truth.
Liking the “Westasia” instead of “Eurasia”. Nice updating there, Kerry.
Hahahaha!!! No i do believe you havent missed anything…thank you. .that was brilliant! I do love a morning laugh 😀
Thanks, Julie. Every so often a situation becomes so patently ridiculous (in this case with the media), that it demands satirisation…
Yep you did miss something – John Campbell visits random poor house in Christchurch to remind us that nothing has changed since the last time he was there.

Hmmm, though I rather believe that Campbell might be the only media to treat the issue seriously…
