Parroting the Ports' management
The mindless repetition of port management press releases by the Right is par for the course. There is no purpose in debating with them, especially when they are now simply cut and pasting media releases. It makes the key point vey clearly. Management must win, right or wrong. Organized working people must be defeated unless they are already sufficiently cowed. Right blogs have become transmission belts for POAL propaganda, which is, of course, their prerogative. Fortunately the MSM has moved on, and the POAL position is now under greater scrutiny. Mr Gibson has a much harder job convincing people of his position today than he did a week ago.

It helps to remember that the right wing blogger and the ignorant, angry old man who calls/listens to talkback is surprisingly often the one and the same guy.
ReplyDeleteSanctuary - it is probably much the same with the lefty sycophants that do that too. Most of us just promote a point of view and let it ride.
ReplyDeleteI've never lowered myself to the cess-pit of talkback in my life. I'd probably vomit if I called Newstalk ZB, or at least suffer significant loss of brain matter - and then I'd end up contributing to kiwiblog.
