Aaron Smith naughty boy?

Sex in a handicapped toilet at the airport just seems a bit gross ,
if he got her up in the air in the plane in the toilet , that might be a bit different , somehow a bit more erotic excitement attached to that one

Lead story for 5 minutes on One News!
Glad they sent the camera man to Christchurch Airport for a 2 sec clip of the toilet, after seeing that I have changed my opinion, I think we should hang Smith
5 minutes of slut shaming? Lead story? That's pretty offensive behaviour by our esteemed state owned broadcaster.

@Rapido no no, 5 mins of shaming him and NZR.
Although they did show 2 grainy images of him and her as well.

Apparently, bolding the word 'him' is too subtle for you?
I meant Smith. He's a man-slut from all I've heard about him over the years.

Yeah, that's what I was angling at.
5 minutes of slut shaming Smith, and the inconsequential (to them) girl he was with, and publicly humiliating Smith's partner.
In an attempt to shame/emabarass the NZRU because that's trendy at the moment.
Colour me unimpressed.

@Rapido yeah mate that is exactly how things are rolling with our media right now, the moral outrage and focus on the wrong stories is despicable!
-
Although I do think that behaviour deserves a reprimand if on official AB duty etc.
Agree once the story breaks it's an issue, agree it's an issue (on AB duty) even if no story breaks.
But I am most disgusted at the intrusive, callous and pervy behaviour of the 'outraged' content sellers.

Just to show how fucked the media is, Reason's penchant for being contrary has meant that he has actually written a sensible article for once.

Reasons article is actually brilliant, I'm shocked.
In other news is "disappointed" the new "outraged" ? Pretty sure I've heard more than a few people express this emotion today......

This thread is stating to risk taking our print media far too seriously.
Sir Bob Jones wrote a great column recently lamenting it and essentially predicting the demise within three years of most of it - including the Dom Post from memory.
He seems to (rightly) be a fan of NBR as one of the last places of sensible/non-sensational reading left, though he had great fun in poking the borax at Matthew Hooten's flight of fancy (Greg Loveridge to run for Labour)
I'd be concerned if the media stories reflected any conversation that I'd had with anyone today... and they didn't.

@Rapido yep, sorry state of affairs (no pun intended)
I agree, he made a very dumb decision, and deserves to be reprimanded, but all the vitriol on social media, sorry, our mainstream media (blurred line sorry) is way out of proportion.

Don't worry, the media thrives on the fact that there is PC folk everywhere who will take as much offence as they possibly can and create a big song and dance about it ( I'm actually offended Justin Beiber is touring here, is there a bandwagon I can get on ? why won't anyone listen to me for once ? ). Sounds like you're just lucky you don't have to associate with them and they aren't the type who frequent forums like this and instead them and their ilk clog up Facebook, Stuff etc with inane self righteous shit just cos that livens ups their pathetic lives.
The fern is WAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY cooler and above all that of course.

@MN5 haha while not the worst article i read about it today, that's pretty fucking poor.
"hey man, want some free advertising for your firm? Just say some inane shit that fits my narrative, and everyone knows anyway, and I'll name drop the fuck out of you, and call you an expert"
"sweet deal. Sponsors don't publicly like negative publicity. Ask them, they'll tell you"
"fuck, great idea!"
"hey weetbix, this has got to fuck you off aye?"
"yea nah bro, going to take something more than this to alter our perceptions"
"shit... but my expert said you would be fucked off!"
"well he's obviously quite the expert"

I see the full Bob Jones article is behind the paywall, but Whale Oil has cited some of it as per:
http://www.whaleoil.co.nz/2016/10/bob-jones-on-matthew-hooton/
"Despite my comments, I love newspapers and specially the Dom. But I give it maybe five more years due to the short-sighted Fairfax cost-cutting destroying all their publications. The latest newspaper circulation figures show it suffered a disastrous 14.4% drop in sales last year. Every newspaper is experiencing steady drops but none as bad as that. Staff lay-offs have become a regular feature of late. These sackees are being mopped up by the Weather Office where their creativity has proven a boon to the forecasting department. The sole New Zealand exception is The National Business Review, which alone deservedly enjoyed a growth in sales.
Still, when it comes to fiction-writing, nothing surpasses NBR’sMatthew Hooton’s July effort headed “Bob Jones’ right-hand man set to save Labour.” Over a full page it described how Greg Loveridge was to be the next Labour leader. Apparently he was about to abandon his $9 million Auckland home and recently acquired $3.5 million Waiheke week-ender and shift to Wainuiomata for God’s sake, to pursue Trevor Mallard’s seat, as a first step to taking over the Labour leadership. Hooton backed all of this with an extraordinary NBR radio interview in which he outlined this virtually as a fait-accompli.
We assume that the basis for this unbelievable fiction-writing was that after returning from Cambridge university, last century take note, Greg did a short stint at Parliament in Trevor Mallard’s office, which experience put him off politics for life. As for joining Labour, an embarrassing assertion as he considers the party an anachronism, the likelihood of that is significantly less than the Catholics demanding I become the next Pope. Mind you, if Hooton wants to write that, and on his form it certainly wouldn’t surprise, then I shall graciously acknowledge it’s a possibility.
Greg is a healthy bugger but imagine if he wasn’t and dropped dead with a heart attack after reading this garbage. Reasonable people might argue this would mean about six years for Matthew following a manslaughter conviction. But I believe an excellent case could be made for a murder conviction and if this was Texas, a death sentence.
Within a decade there may be no daily newspapers. Future generations will read of these past reporter creative endeavours with disbelief. Waugh’s Scoop, for half a century after publication, in an age when reporters read books, was firmly established as journalism’s bible, with its tales of havoc-causing fictional news creations. Hootonism and Scoop in the eyes of a more naïve future generation, will be wrongly categorised with Gulliver’s Travels or H G Wells’s Time Machine and The Invisible Man, as imaginative fantasy.
I, however, shall exploit this situation. Mass tourism has brought the evolvement, particularly in Europe, of specialist museums targeting tourists, who by their third day in a historic city, are bored witless and wondering what to do next. On my observation the most popular museums are those with a macabre theme, such as medieval torture instruments and the like. In that horror category will be my museum of journalist outrages with the first room explaining what a newspaper was to younger visitors. Matthew’s effort will justify a framed photo in the fiction-writing room; nothing more given it lacked malice. If he aspires to be immortalised with a statue at the entrance, he’ll have to do better than that."
