OPINION: Was the ASB Economic Weekly throwing shade on Reserve Bank governor Adrian Orr when reporting on his speech in Washington recently?
It appears Wallace’s fondness for young men was not limited to those in the arty-farty scene.
Some 20 or so years ago, a young cub reporter from this very publication organised to interview Wallace about his life-long interest in meat and flesh (the bovine kind) at his now infamous Auckland mansion.
However, after returning to the office, said cub reporter was rather shaken and confused about his weird interaction with Wallace.
He was especially confused of the older man’s insistence on showing him around his house and viewing his artworks.
Luckily, the young journalist did not hang around, despite an invitation to stay for a meal and drink, and escaped alarmed but unharmed.
