<p>I can see the humour in that. I suppose it is like when I scratch my head when Jon Key does something rather innocuous and there are howls of outrage purely because he has spoken about something</p> -

I think the most shocking is that a news reader got her tits out on TV in the 80s, and kept her job. I think that is the least New Zealand thing i have ever read</p></blockquote>

Getting back to stuff, a year or so ago they put up a link to the show so you could check out her jubblies. -

<p>I am not sure how it is like that? I get how she is trying to be funny, but that joke is old.. and was not really that funny to start with. To me it is just a snide way of insulting someone... and not an original one.</p> -

<p>Are you part of the permanantly outraged but on the opposite side of those that despise John Key?</p>

<p>Oh I agree it isn't a big deal. I don't think posting on an internet forum in a thread about shit media is exactly egging it up. If I was demanding CGW get taken off the air, and Moa be prosecuted.. and I (and the outraged otehrs) spammed social media with it.. then yeah.. might be the same.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I just think it is an example of more shit media in NZ, in this case a sports show getting involved (repeatedly) in left wing politics.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And I dont think the joke was funny or original.. just snide nasty shit.</p>
<p> And it was certainly not IMO comedy gold.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My care factor is above zero, but only marginally. So is yours though,.. as you are posting about it as well.</p> -
<p>I agree with BSG, The Crowd Goes Wild should stick to sports and not try to be opinionated or political on unrelated issues. If Mulligan or Rigor wants to re-tweet that sort of stuff, go for your life, but a nameless person behind a company is pretty pathetic. Even if I agreed with what they were saying, it is unprofessional and my respect for them drops.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Do they care? Probably not, but they aren't helping their own ratings when they alienate viewers with their political bias.</p> -

<p>Kerfuffle is a great word, I need to use it in my every day language a lot more.</p> -
<p>Weldon did not get fired apparently, he has been on stress leave for a bit and has clearly decided that trying to implement the boards direction to get the ego's under control at TV3 was to much. So he just said 'fuck it'.</p>
<p>I don't blame him when you see the way he has been vilified. The Social media lynch mob has been running around with pitch forks and pictures of him for months </p> -
<p>The CGW sports only ship sailed long long ago. They have more than half their representation doing political peices/quips/opinions now. It's absolutely awful. Funnily enough, the seemingly most opinionated on the show (Mark Richardson) does the least of it if any at all.</p>

She actually looked really hot early in her career before she decided she wasn't into dick anymore..... Her decline is fucken startling......<br><br>
[media]
<br>
That's down to two things , alcohol judging by the fact pretty much every time I see her interviewed she's going on about drink she got the night before and the fact she was never that hot to start with. Apparently they use some technique to stretch the footage in her early video to make her look taller and slimmer. When she went to states they told her they'd turn into the next Jewel and put her on a diet . She got pissed off and came home and ranted in interviews about how stupid Americans are which is bound to come back and haunt her if she tries to make it big there in this social media age .<br><br>
Also even if you put her in a rocket and fired her into the centre of the sun she would struggle to be as hot as Jewel. If her interview on prime rocks is anything to go by Sammy C is bang on. -

<p>I still haven't watched since Holt's Labour-Green puffpiece last October. And I'm probably the least political person you would meet.</p> -

I thought CGWs rating meant it only borderline viable as it was ? I doubt they want to lose more viewership with their moronic political options . -

Can't view the vid at work , there may have been a brief period in her life where she wasn't a munter but that ship has looooooong since sailed .
