McBLOG: Yes, the NZ Herald did sink this low

The agenda of the once great NZ Herald is becoming very clear – and for those who weren’t sure, this week removed any doubt. In a specifically child-focused section on the newspaper website, they featured a 7-year-old child in stilettos pushing catwalking, crossdressing and even some twerking. Who needs drag queens in libraries to indoctrinate our children when we have the NZ Herald.


TRANSCRIPT:

The agenda of the once great New Zealand Herald is becoming very clear and for those who werent sure, this week removed any doubt.

The NZ Heralds ideology and censorship of balanced debate became clear when they refused to print our paid advertisement what is a woman.

And then continued when they recently did an Editorial (written by the editors of the newspaper) on that Open Letter

signed by 50 prominent sports people who said that fairness and safety in sport should be paramount when deciding whether to include dudes who want to be girls in female sports (in other words, so-called transgenderpeople playing sport in the wrong sex category).

Nope- the NZ Herald tried to blow it off as not relevant and claimed that there are no NZ examples.

Ro Edge from Save Womens Sports Australasia who we have interviewed responded and said
<blockquote class=”twitter-tweet” data-media-max-width=”560″><p lang=”en” dir=”ltr”>My response to today&#39;s out of touch editorial in the <a href=”https://twitter.com/nzherald?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw”>@nzherald</a>, as sent as A Letter to the Editor:<br><br>It is a shame that your editorial resorted to tired inaccuracies and misinformation rather than engaging in an important issue in good faith.

It is telling that [the editorial] makes no argument for weight or age categories to be discarded in the name of inclusion but is so dismissive of protecting the female category, even though the differences between sexes are significantly larger than if an 18 year old wanted to play as an under 16.

As for the “hypothetical” examples of males in female sports in New Zealand. We would be very happy to sit down with your editorial writer and share with them the examples we receive regularly of women being pushed out of their own sporting category by males.

While I would look forward to the opportunity of sharing the growing number of examples being shared with us, it is more likely this editor will continue to prioritise ideology over biology – despite the harm its doing to women and girls.

The NZ Herald also refuse to allow any narrative from our side of the debate in terms of pushing back against the chemicalisation and confusion of young children in the name of so-called gender affirmation and the radical sexuality and gender curriculum in schools (RSE).

So it has always been pretty clear which side of the fence they are on in this social debate around gender ideologyand sexualisation especially around the drag queens in front of children debate, and reading LGBTQ++ books in libraries.

But now it appear the NZ Herald is not just being one-sided, or being silent about the contrary view which we are presenting.

They appear to be now marketing and pushing the sexualisation and gender ideology explicitly to children.

And that should make you very angry.

Just to prove how radical the New Zealand Herald has become, this week in a specifically child focused section of the newspaper, they featured a 7-year-old child in stilettos pushing the transgender for children ideology along with some twerking.

Now it comes under a feature specifically for children by the NZ Herald called Kea Kids.

I hadnt heard of it but here are some of the topics they have done targeted at children

Sports stories
Kids musical
Tractors
Reffing sports
Wakeboarding
Why does david Seymour want to cut school lunches (fake news we start to see some of the ideology sneaking in here)
More sports
And more sports

So pretty benign.

Here is the episode which has shocked everyone

Reporter [name] stomps the catwalk with superstar [name] a Westie biker with his own style shredding the dirt and putting the glamour to the pedal.

The biker and the dirt bit is just designed to throw you as you will soon see.

Now we have deliberately removed parts of this where the full names are shown. This is not about the children in this video.

Its about the adults. The producers, the parents, and the NZ Herald who think they should publish this.

Have a watch

Hmm wonder why he got banned. At the age of 4!!

Weird to wear a dress and high heels and twerk and pout with makeup? Wonder why.

When I was researching this and confirming the links etc, I noticed below the section directly targeted at children this section. TransGenerations.

After decades of struggling to be seen, trans people are now very much in the spotlight. From the Big Gay Out to the crowds who protested against anti-trans activist Posie Parker, trans people in Aotearoa are now visible and in the news. But that increased visibility is a mixed blessing.

Yes and theyre up to their 8th episode. And great placement. Children just cant miss moving further down to the TransGenerations section and be further indoctrinated.

My heart goes out to that child and those in similar circumstances. The environment of gender confusion is deeply troubling and is causing untold harm to vulnerable children.

But for the NZ Herald to glamorise, normalise and even promote it is unforgiveable. By the way, it was funded by NZ On Air so you helped fund it!

The good news is that the outcry against the clip was obviously so strong that the video has been removed. And rightly so. It should never have been created in the first place.

But heres the key point.

Many people think that the NZ Herald is more right leaning than left leaning compared to other mainstream media outlets in NZ.

That theory has been well and truly debunked.

In fact, apart from a few individual talkback hosts scattered around NZ, most of the mainstream media in New Zealand leans left and it shows in their reporting and coverage.

Which is probably why we’re so busy.
