Greg Presland writes at The Standard on the framing of this.
In what feels like a finely choreographed dance the MSM has adopted the right’s framing of the issue and pronounced the decision as some sort of crisis for the Labour Party. The loss of 15 MPs including its sixth ranked MP Tony Ryall for National is evidence of renewal. The loss of fifth ranked Shane Jones is a sign of a crisis for Labour. Go figure.
The right’s framing of issues is so powerful because supposed left wing commentators buy into them. When they go for comment on the Labour Party they use washed up right wingers such as Michael Bassett to pour poorly described bile on the party. Or they use people supposedly of the left who also accept the right’s framing.

Hard News: Jones: The contender leaves, in reply to BenWilson,
Seriously, how is it their fault that Morning Report would choose that particular clique?
Political media management includes maintaining ongoing relationships with media producers so they have a better balanced background view to bring to stories.
A traditionally-fair channel like Morning Report selecting only one side of an argument doesn't happen in a vacuum. That's a bigger disaster than one mouthy MP taking his talents elsewhere.

Thanks, Hilary.
He spoke at the United Nations during the drafting of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities as head of the NGO, Inclusion International.
Wasn't Robert also the first ever person with impaired learning or thinking to speak before the United Nations? Amazing man.

Those interviews sounded like a fuckfest of Fox News liberals.
Disgustingly biased coverage. What producer worth their salt would give airtime only to tired right-wing fools like that bunch? Labour's ongoing inability to manage media and framing is really hurting them.

These certainly aren't my economic priorities
same for 99% of New Zealanders. Now, how about we ignore all but 1 in 100 words from the silly libertarian feckers?

They play a role in regulating appetite, nausea, mood, pain and inflammation.
Inflammation? I'd love to know more about that. References anyone?

was quietly fishing around for a soft landing spot
Jones said something to that effect, and he has options. The guy was always better at business than politics, so no surprise he matched McCully's wishlist either.
