MEDIA SHAME FILE
Outlet: New Zealand Herald
Headline: Encanto Reo Māori: Rotorua’s Te Waimarie Ngatai-Callaghan makes Disney debut
Summary: This edition of Media Shame File does not concern the article and its gibberish headline, but the actions of the NZ Herald social media team.
Everyone knows that most journalists are left-wing, but a lesser known fact is that every newsroom has a social media team that tends to be stacked with radical left-wing extremists with little to no journalism experience. They are almost always Gen Z, and are often blatant frauds who sell themselves as “social media strategists” despite having no such skills. Sadly, boomer editors fall for it and hire them to carry out simple tasks that any idiot could do, such as post links on Facebook and delete comments.
Usually this goes unnoticed, but thanks to the recent actions of one social media staffer in New Zealand, we get an insight into what they are really like.
On this article about a Maori singer making her Disney debut, some comments were apparently so awful it prompted the social media team to shut them down and write:
“Comments closed because of the same stale, jealous, narrow-minded, no-life-having, hōhā, pathetic NONSENSE being spouted by people that would hijack a post about a Disney film just to have a sook.”
Clearly this person is a spiteful Maori themselves, and since that comment gained attention in New Zealand, another has come to light from 2023 reading:
“Comments closed and apologies to some of our reader for sharing this. In celebrating Maori excellence we have inadvertently caused distress to some fragile Pakeha [a derogatory term for non-Maoris]. We hope closing the comments helps these individuals recover.”
Bear this in time next time you read an antiwhite headline, or wonder why comments are off on a news site’s X or Facebook post – it’s because the far-left social media team are pushing their agenda behind the scenes.
And with most clicks now coming from social media, these people are effectively controlling the narrative.
