RNZ do your job. Show some courage and report the facts. It’s a f##king nazi salute

drmike.bsky.social•55 days ago

Just a cheerful wave of acknowledgement to the crowd

What did they say when Trump claimed the US split the atom?

awaterevalley.bsky.social•55 days ago

NZ fact checking is all over that one.

aimeew.bsky.social•55 days ago

Discovered and split are different :)

NZ did the first, they did the second (with the help of non-US scientists who they had recruited, but yep.)

destructokea.bsky.social•55 days ago

Non-US doing a lot of heavy lifting there.

I did not watch his speech, the Herald reported he said that.

drmike.bsky.social•55 days ago

He did say that

stanleybigfeet.bsky.social•55 days ago

Oh well, back to living in a post facts era.

easecoasting.bsky.social•55 days ago

Out here in the hidden shire I think we are just gonna let him have that one

nickgirlnz.bsky.social•55 days ago

Sometimes it feels like we are living in a parallel universe. How is this shit actually happening for real!?

rask004.bsky.social•55 days ago

Such a man child

nzkatya.bsky.social•55 days ago

Bad enough that the NZ Herald put speech marks around Nazi salute, our public broadcaster takes it a (goose) step further

why is a public broadcaster carrying a cnn story?

norightturnnz.bsky.social•55 days ago

Its not like they can afford foreign correspondents anymore.

sachadylan.bsky.social•55 days ago

But no arrangements with other public broadcasters?

kobettyahau.bsky.social•55 days ago

I'm still stunned at the cravenness of that headline. We need you to do/be much better RNZ

kiwiteej.bsky.social•55 days ago

Yeah, this is not a moment to 'both sides' or equivocate. It was a Nazi salute. Not saying it is choosing to endorse it for what it was.

fmacskasy.bsky.social•55 days ago

If Russia was looking for nazis, the invaded the wrong country.

Liberate the United States and Putin will be the darling of the world!

(Note; just kidding. Not serious. *winks*)

" 'odd-looking' gesture"

Media now so frightened of Fuhrer Trump that they employ euphemisms?

It's not an " 'odd-looking' gesture". It's a f*****g nazi salute.

helwise1.bsky.social•55 days ago

Media just failing at every opportunity.

utunga.bsky.social•55 days ago

Did they change the headline cause the preview says 'nazi salute" now.. ?

walkingblind.bsky.social•54 days ago

Headline from The Byte and other sources “ELON MUSK ENDORSES NAZI-LINKED GERMAN PARTY, EVEN THOUGH IT OPPOSED TESLA’S GIGAFACTORY”

flaneuse1.bsky.social•55 days ago

What's up with RNZ?!!
