    The BSA only react to complaints. Lots of people are thinking and saying the same thing but if nobody complains it doesn't get looked at. They are not screening all media content they are reacting to complaints. Someone was offended by Kate's comments so they complained accordingly within the allowable time frame. I don't think they care about the truth but focus more on the context and how it could be perceived to be offensive. Maybe an action that could be taken against the BSA would be to flood them with complaints about anything you deem to be offensive and see what happens.

    "Played into the stereotype that Maori and Pacific Island peoples [...] are given underserved special treatment in New Zealand" Interesting statement from the BSA, given that is exactly what they are doing themselves: silencing a broadcaster speaking to a demonstrable special treatment being extended to those groups by invoking the special treatments the BSA themselves have a policy to extend to those peoples. Consider by contrast the BSA to my knowledge has never issued a breach notice to any broadcaster perpetuating negative stereotypes about Pakeha, which occur every time anyone on TV or radio talks about "white supremacy" or "colonialism", which is frequently. I would argue that by BSA not prosecuting those instances of racism, they can only be viewed as also extending special treatment to Maori and Pacific Island peoples based solely on those specific ethnicities.

    My father was a GP in a deprived part of the Wellington region and took pride in helping certain communities, I also have a friend who is a GP in a similar position. I am disgusted that politicians and media are allowed to push their narrow views on healthcare and race and their narrow ideas about race politics and discrimination onto men who are significantly better able to make the right decisions. My dad and my friend are: -Better educated -More intelligent -More ethical and less 'racist' Than ANYONE who wokes (deliberate typo) in media or ANY of NZs MPs The people who work in healthcare are committed to helping those who need it, and have been world leaders in EVIDENCE based policies. Sure, the medical profession may have gotten some things wrong in the past, but they should be allowed to lead the push for improving things and not be manipulated by petty political agendas. Politicians increasingly seem to represent the worst of us.

    I've complained to the BSA three times. In every case, there was a clear breach of the standard of accuracy or impartiality. In every case, they trumped up some ridiculous argument about why that was not the case. The BSA is not fit for purpose and needs to be shut down then replaced with a new authority that's not full of left-wing, biased Wellingtonians.

So I believe Kate did not breach the BSA because this was 100% going on. Yet another reason why our country has been divided by race!

    Just had a look at the BSA website. Governors: women and ethnic persons over represented. Lawyers overrepresented: 3 to 1. Then the staff. Women 7 versus men 2. Lawyers - ridiculous 7 lawyers or former lawyers or worked in the legal profession which under the Lawyer and Conveyancers Act means they were lawyers versus 2. Of the total staff that's 10 out of 13 that are/were lawyers. Only 2 out of the total have broadcasting experience as Broadcasters rather than lawyers for broadcasters. Minister for Broadcasting please go in there and sack the board and staff and reestablish a proper hiring balance that is backed up by an employment charter that is waaaaay more representative of New Zealand demographics than what is in place right now.

    People I know are now telling Health and other Govt bureaucrats when asked that they identify as Maori or PI regardless of whether they have ancestry or not. On occasion that they are challenged for proof they just go nuclear on the bureaucrat “are you questioning my whakapapa??” etc etc. Seems to work. I suggest everyone follows suit.
