Are they serious?
OPINION: The Greens aren’t serious people when it comes to the economy, so let’s not spend too much on their fiscal fantasies.
The role of supposedly impartial media was recently borne out to yours truly by the actions of the Science Media Centre (SMC) - funded by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE), that is we the taxpayers - when offering 'experts' to comment on the disbanding of the Māori Health Authority.
The SMC, which claims to be a 'trusted, independent source of information for the media on all issues', offered up two supposed experts for comment.
Unfortunately, both had a clear bias towards supporting the MHA.
No wonder people are losing trust in media when only one view is put up as comment.
