Morgan backs Maori Party over Hosking’s incompetence
The Opportunities Party Leader Gareth Morgan is joining Maori Party Leader Te Uroroa Flavell in questioning the
competence of TVNZ host Mike Hosking.
“Two weeks ago, we wrote to NZME complaining about the ill-informed and vacuous editorial comments of Mr Hosking in
regard to our tax policy,” says Dr Morgan. “We received a less than satisfactory response from NZME who refused us any
right of reply.”
“The Maori Party now find themselves in much the same position, though at least TVNZ tried to make Mr Hosking admit his
mistake and found he is emotionally incapable of doing so” Dr Morgan continued “Who the State funded broadcaster chooses
to front their debates is their business, but Mr Hosking is clearly not qualified to commentate on either politics or
economics”.
