Hamish Keith comments on issues in the media. Today Keith talks about articles about prostitution stories in the Sunday News that misrepresent the facts. He also looks at news media reports of the Treaty of Waitangi claims. Keith comments on Judy Bailey on July 20th Network News reporting that news items about Maori should not be sensational, and this is followed by a biased report on the Ngati Whatua claim. He criticises the way media reports on the Waitangi Tribunal, stoking the panic by mis-reporting. Hamish Keith says that the media should report the facts.
