    Couldn't agree more Craig. Just found out about Idour's lawyers rebuttal as well Danyl. I'd like to say my concerns arrise from being brought up on a diet of BBC jounalsim with integrity but after watching the John Sweeney clip I'd do well to KEEP MY TRAP SHUT!

    You couldn't make this up could you? It would be absolutely hilarious if there weren’t signs of complicity by journalist to withhold information so as to give the story more legs. I find it worrying that serious journalists knew that Wayne Idour was not only the source of the story but also the provider of the bestiality film and failed to disclose this in any of their initial reporting. On discovering this crucial fact any good journalist would see that this story had subsequently shed even the tiniest smidgen of credibility that it was carrying. Its easy to conclude that Wishart and his associates are seriously damaged individuals hell bent in inflicting their paranoid world view to as wide an audience as possible. It’s a shame that the MSM buy into their sensational and usually baseless rubbish on such a regular basis. I suppose the only hope is that one day the Wishart crew develop the self awareness to take a few steps back to see how utterly tragic they have become. As this seems rather unlikely there will just be more of this crap flying around for years to come.

    Btw Craig, cant see where your coming from on your moral high ground angle especially in relation to Investigate’s funding. Its crucially important find out who’s providing Investigate the financial oxygen to peddle their nonsense and why they are doing it.

    This has legs, should not be let to run. Stopping it by complying with Wisharts wish is as likely the most effective solution and makes it a Labour Party initiative.

    I'd be inclined to ignore it and see if National offer up anything that the nutter wants. Somehow I doubt if they will. Key has been at pains to pull his party away from the right wing lunatic fringe and this strategy is starting to pay off big time personaly for him in the polls. Also I suggest that they would rather not be seen to be ruffling the feathers of the law at a time when there are better points to be scored by offering the police political support over gangs/boy racers/ drugs issues etc. Unless any of the MSM really take the bait and troll up something of real substance then my guess is that this will be a non issue within a couple of weeks.

    Ian Wishart is the Lord of the disingenuous and it amazes me that the MSM repeatedly pick up on his drivel. The guy is obviously quite a sad and restless soul who will not be happy until NZ becomes a Christian theocracy with someone like Bishop Tamaki installed as minister for social development. As this is unlikely to ever happen he'll repeatedly bend the truth to such an extent that he’ll compromise his chances of ever reaching paradise. The rest of us can comfort ourselves in the knowledge that he is destined to rot in hell for eternity. Shame.
