This didn't leap out at me. Is it because good, in-depth reporting requires A LOT of research and hard work, and that modern journalism is adequately rewarded by re-Tweeted sound bites?
12 years after the #Operation8 raids, I feel thoroughly vindicated. But where is the #PublicInquiry into how millions of dollars of public money was spent persecuting a group of kiwis for political reasons? Where is the Press Council inquiry into the role played by the #NewsMedia in whipping up a public feeding frenzy about entirely fictional "grenade launchers"? Where is the accountability, and the compensation for those who were harmed by this trial by media? http://archive.indymedia.org.nz/article/74443/open-letter-bomber-about-dawn-raids.html
