  • Hard News: So-called celebrity justice,

    But has there ever been a case in NZ where a site has had a case brought against it because of comments left by people unconnected to the site?

    dunno but it's fairly obvious this isnt going to be the first site to test those waters but it will surely be one of the first to capitalise on any precedents ruled in favour if another site got done...

    ...funny how instantaenous and aquiescing blogs can be in regards to retractions but it's no different to the anonymous high society tattler in gossip mags

    like if you're gonna initiate a discussion about shit then lets not pretend we dont know the full facts or worse drop little teasers in public about extra facts not to known to the public...

    ...grow a pair and put up or shut up, i'm always fond of saying and if i was russell i'd be pushing shit to the limit:)

    Yeah, you've just described his style of music, what he does, his racial background and the types of people that supported him. In an absolutely tiny industry - I do know who this guy is, but still, you've narrowed it to literally a couple of people

    shit !!! when you put it like that...my bad. I thought it's no more than what's available out there.

    you're a crack up alright russell. couple days ago you didnt want to talk about it but now its been beat up with the PM weighing in you decide its newsworthy again and diss the papers for, if not following suit then at least playing the same game you are...

    ...shoulda grown a pair last week and trotted out your well formed opinion then

    but anyway, its the fact that the entertainer pimps his music to exactly the demographic whose poor decision making he preyed on that warranted no name supression in the first place.

    i mean wheres the proof that him being outed would affect his international marketability? didnt do akon any harm dry humping a 15yr old on stage.

    the backlash for not owning up will and has hurt him more especially among the heads. i remember ages ago at a hiphop summit DLT saying the industry was run by paedos...guess he was right cos what sort of message does it give from on high in the music industry that they will support an artist as long as he makes money for them?... Line em up, take a ticket and stand in line.

    on a side note i reckon the victims shoulda taken some cell phone pics as insurance:)

    naturally you'd have to have some sort of age requirement and registration/verification process. a simple microchip implant for instance:)

    incoming txt : repeal foreshore and seabed... y/n ?

    reply : y

    incoming txt : the y's have it so far, which of these options do you prefer to replace the current legislation ?
