Ryan Bridge Partisan Journalism

yeah yeah all right um someone's just sent through a message It's a bar. Interesting you would say this. It's a beer. It's a beer. Yes, please no more Ryan. Also, Chippy should stop going there. That is an interesting point because that leads us beautifully into our last story of the night, which is the front page podcast talking about how terrible Christopher Luxon is at media and part of the first part of this conversation. is actually them talking about Mr. Luxon not going on some things. And of course they bring up the example of Jacinda and Mike Hosking. But actually, to their credit, they also bring up examples of, I didn't know this, but right now, David Seymour will not go on Morning Report. John Key refused to go on Morning Report. I will pull up something that the host says which she's factually incorrect about the Jacinda and the Newstalk ZB but I'll point that out when it comes out. So I don't want to see Chippy not go to Ryan Bridge because I think what we just saw was a huge win for the messaging of the left and we live in this echo chamber where narrative sometimes means more than truth and Chippy was able to dismantle that narrative now whether that cuts through or not I'm not sure but it's that old adage of you can lead a horse to water right you can't make them drink that was Chippy leading the viewer to the water saying no you're wrong this is the truth whether they drink or not that's on them but if he wasn't there at all that narrative would perpetuate and there'd be no there'd be no water being led to at all right let's have a look at this about lux and um i think they were talking a bit about tover as well tover o'brien yesterday not interviewing luxon which was very weird on breakfast
