Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
I know that the media are trying to blow this out of proportion and that I was for restricting the media's bias and exaggeration. But I wanted it on REAL issues. Being mocked is part of being a politician, if they don't like how stupid they look on camera choose a different career!
Like Maori land claims from the Treaty of Waitangi, where our media portrays it as just a few Maori trying to claim land off farmers and a weak government giving in all the time. This leads to ignorant and mis-informed Pakeha cause they don't actually explain WHY.
This is just trivial, who cares if the news makes fun of some politicians, we already know lots of them are lazy bums who sleep, read and even listen to music when they are meant to be debating.
If only George Bush had of thought of something like this before Iraq then maybe people wouldn't laugh at him so much.
