Overbearing?
OPINION: Dust ups between rural media and PR types aren't unheard of but also aren't common, given part of the job description of PR is to grease the wheels and ensure clients get good media coverage.
However, it appears the latest photos were taken in early September - when Auckland and the rest of the country were in lockdown.
This begs the question: Did Reid - and his financial backers - deliberately break lockdown 4 rules by helping him sneak out of Covid-infested Auckland to take (photo-shopped?) snaps in Auckland?
Surely leaving Auckland to take dodgy photos for Facebook hardly qualifies as 'essential work'?
Have either the police and/or health officials contacted Reid and his backers to ask some hard questions about his movements during lockdown?
