The Paul Henry thread

[Toaster]

I'd give him mine too!

Women have the vote???!!!

[caseye]

Been over the ditch all of the last week,come home to find my Fav breakfast presenter is missing in action.Hell Pippa better be there on Monday.
What have we come to?
A TV presenter asks if someone with a name that sounds foreign is actually a NZ'er, asks if he was born here? asks if he should be a Governor General for us and suddenly he's gone?
Pricks! useless, gutless wonders, whats wrong with us?
We;ve become a nation of hand wringing whimps!
if Mr Anand can't take a Joke perhaps he should NOT be our current GG.
As for TV NZ, they've obviously lost the plot too, replace Paul Hnery? with what?
Paul Holmes, na sorry he's had his day and would never consider putting another foot wrong after quite rightly calling Coffee Anan a"bloody cheeky darky" for telling us here in NZ how to behave after his own country's atrocities.
Tell it like it is, is what Paul Henry and the Breakfast team has been all about, I'm bloody sad and angry that my daily intro to NZ's boring old news and current affairs has been yet again DUMBED DOWN by the powers that be.
oh and John Key, You sir, are a WHIMP of the highest order for not immediately and summarily prouncing Paul Henry a bloody Saint and protecting his job for all time.

(sigh....) Paul Henry resigned because he misjudged light humour, instead he was offensive. Paul Henry is not an entertainer or a comedian. If he was he'd be on in the evening and we'd all have a good laugh. Instead he is a program presenter covering light topics in the morning when families - including children - are watching.

Paul Henry has talent and can be funny: no argument. Unhappily he makes fun of others who are not on the spot to defend themselves. Such as the lady with the moustache. Small stuff on its own but Paul kept trying to be clever.

TVNZ faced the loss of advertisers after the latest gaffe regarding the Indian Minister's name. Clearly many other people didn't think PH was especially clever or funny.

The End.

All decent New Zealanders are celebrating over the news of Paul Henry’s resignation. Henry resigned in the face of growing outrage over his racist comments. TV bosses and the PM originally stood by Henry. This shows their unwillingness to stand up to bigotry.

Socialist Aotearoa was right to lead a protest of anti-racist activists outside the TVNZ studios last week following the racist remarks made by Paul Henry in his interview with Prime Minister John Key on Monday 4 October, and to call for him to be sacked.

Henry asked Key if Sir Anand was "even a New Zealander".

Henry then went on to ask Key about his next choice of Governor General: "Are you going to choose a New Zealander who looks and sounds like a New Zealander this time? Are we going to go for someone who is more like a New Zealander this time?"

This response by TVNZ was wholly inadequate. People have a right to their own opinions, but Henry is a paid employee of a state subsidised TV company. Our taxes should not be used so that this right-wing bigot can pedal his racist filth on national TV.

This is not the first time Henry has used his TV show to abuse other people. Henry gave a half-hearted apology earlier this year for disablist remarks he made about singer Susan Boyle and the Indian Government have lodged a formal complaint about racist remarks he made to an official of that Government. Each time he uses his position of power to make racist, sexist or disablist comments, he helps to legitimise every playground and workplace bully.

The bosses want to set New Zealanders against each other by creating a false distinction between “real” and “other” New Zealanders. TVNZ CEO Rick Ellis originally said that Henry speaks for most New Zealanders. This is not the case. In schools and workplaces up and down the country, people of different backgrounds and ethnicities, men and women, straight and gay, disabled and non-disabled people work side by side. By contrast, Henry represented the racist bullying bosses who seek to divide, and the misguided twats who jeer along with him.

Furthermore, how dare you speak for the people you call ''decent New Zealanders''. The totalitarian crap you're spouting makes it abundantly clear that you wouldn't know what ''decent'' is.

[MisterD]

For all those idiots that like to run around taking offence on behalf of other people, go on, knock yourselves out.

It's not your fault.
