How to avoid threatening to stick photos of journalists to urinals in mayoral interviewsThe Spinoff Daily, Monday October 3
Ahiahi mārie, welcome to The Spinoff Daily in partnership with Ārepa. Today on The Spinoff, Chris Schulz investigates the curious online reviews of a curious Auckland pop-up restaurant, publisher Fergus Barrowman recalls working with Keri Hulme in the 1980s and Sylvia Giles looks at what the roll-out of doorstep delivery service of EMA (“the abortion pill”) means for patients and for surgical providers. But first, here’s Hayden Donnell with the WikiHow article Wayne Brown should have read before his Newshub interview.
“Following an interview with Newshub last week, Auckland mayoral race frontrunner Wayne Brown was making chit chat about how much he doesn’t like Simon Wilson. While expanding on his animosity toward Wilson, Brown called him a prick, then issued a highly unusual policy promise, telling the Newshub employee: “The first thing I’ll do when I get to be the mayor is they’ll be glueing little pictures of him on all the urinals so people can pee on him.” We didn’t expect to have to do this, especially after having to put together a cheat sheet on how to not say Nazi stuff during a mayoral debate in the last local body election, but in light of these recent developments, The Spinoff has put together a cheat sheet on how not to say you’re going to stick pictures of a journalist on the work urinals during a media encounter.”
