Devastated for friends and former colleagues at Newshub. This is a terrible day for so many talented staff who give it their all and produce incredible work.
And it's a terrible day for journalism.

Favourite line from Kieran McAnulty “I walk my greyhound twice a day and she has less leaks than this Government”. Just brilliant!

Just a reminder with the holiday season approaching: If you offer someone a drink and they say, "No thanks, I don't drink" the correct response is not, "Why not?" or "Come on, just one!" or anything else like that. The only correct response is, "No worries. Can I get you anything else?"

Why do people make up shit about people? Some arsehole tweeted that I wouldn’t give scientific advice to the new govt (as if they would ask, LOL) and it’s just reinforced a bunch of people’s misperception that my pandemic advice was politically motivated as opposed to just not wanting people to die

New Zealand’s new right-leaning coalition government is abandoning a world-leading plan to outlaw smoking for future generations, in a move health experts say is a retrograde step that will cost the country billions of dollars in health care.
Groundbreaking smoking ban abandoned in New Zealand’s swing to the right
The new government halted a plan to outlaw smoking, a move critics call “a huge win for the tobacco industry” and “an act of idiocy” for public health.

Deputy PM Winston Peters says he is 'at war' with media amid ongoing baseless claims
Cabinet has only just met for the first time, but Winston Peters is already levelling false claims and engaging in combative exchanges whenever he sees reporters.
