Geoff Parker: THE NEWS MEDIA ROLE IN ADVANCING MAORI INTERESTS.
The Stuff article got me thinking about the media’s quest to advance Maori and tribal interests over those of all other New Zealanders. The totalitarian adage about ‘repeat a lie often enough and ‘it’ becomes the truth’ is demonstrated daily with the media’s frequent publishing of embellished Maori wonderfulness stories, history and treaty misinformation, and sometimes outright lies.
The Ministry of Education builds on the media’s propaganda by indoctrinating our young with false histories and Maori superiority nonsense. The young and impressionable grow up believing what their teachers say and what the media publishes. Eventually those familiar with the facts are inevitably replaced by those living the lie.

It’s very rare for ‘letters to the editor’ correcting discrepancies or misinformation to get published. Over the years after many rejected letters to my local newspaper The Northern Advocate, I have come to the conclusion that in my opinion they are very biased and controlling. Similarly, many newspapers have closed their online ‘comments’ section to further prevent the truth, fact or contrary opinions being publicised…..
