As a self-confessed conspiracy theorist, I often wonder when the majority of the population will wake up and smell the roses. At what point will others realise that the mainstream media are pawns in a game of BS, lies and dishonesty to scare monger us into the New World Order submission. Last Sunday’s “documentary” presented by John Hudson contained enough bias to cause me to make a formal complaint to TVNZ – the first time ever.
One wonders what an hour of my time finding out how to complain, writing and then blogging about it will achieve but sometimes you’ve just got to act. I was an inch away from complaining about John Campbell’s extraordinary beatup of Brian Tamaki (Destiny Church) a couple of elections ago, but instead just stopped watching TV3. I had nothing against the guy until I saw his immature and senseless attack I put up with his idiosyncrasies. This wasn’t as satisfying as laying a complaint but it achieved the desired result – I was no longer offended by him!
Public TV is bound by the Free To Air Television Code of Broadcasting Practice. It’s not a problem to put something controversial on TV but it has to meet certain standards. Sunday’s programme was just sloppy journalism designed to perpetuate the Global warming nonsense for the ones behind the scenes who benefit (read: the power and money boys).
This is the complaint:

AucklandFORMAL COMPLAINT
I watched last week’s TVNZ Sunday programme, specifically the segment on climate change/global warming and I wish to make a formal complaint on the grounds of accuracy, fairness and balance. It was a disgraceful piece of biased journalism.
John Hudson claimed in the documentary that Takuu, is being overrun by the ocean because of rising sea levels attributed to human-caused global warming. This is nonsense and totally unjustified scare mongering in a contentious issue.
The documentary made scant mention of a plethora of contrary scientific views and presented biased information that deliberately perpetuated the misleading global warming hoax.
For the record, the cause of Takuu sinking is changing earth movements and volcanic activity in the region – and NOT global warming.
You should present this contentious issue in a balanced manner. Try interviewing Ian Wishart, author of AIR CON and asking decent questions that seek an honest answer. While this will likely offend your obvious political agenda to push the global warming mantra, your watching audience will double – I’m sure.
I’ll eat my hat if Ian ever gets a decent whack at mainstream exposure. Their only approach to people who actually let the facts be the story has to be to ignore them, and carry on their own business of story-telling for profit, because otherwise they’ll get exposed for who they really are.
We just have to push through the constant mass media negativity and enjoy the good things in life!
UPDATE
TVNZ have kindly responded to the abovementioned formal complaint, formally. Essentially they say “We got it right – CO2 is increasing and the earth is warming and all as a result of mankind – Gareth Morgan says. And we said it was a contentious issue so it was balanced journalism.” Their response can be read here: Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4.
Poor things. They really haven’t done the research have they? The sad thing is that even a quick read of Ian Wishart’s book Air Con is unlikely to change their minds, after all it would be political suicide to take TVNZ back into winebox territory and fight the establishment again.
I do appreciate that they at least responded, even if they had to by law. At least somebody took the time to scribble together an answer. Thanks guys.
I’ll keep on watching you, even if you are on a different page from me!
