Propaganda

Te Hunga Roia Māori | The Māori Law Society said the ad was likely to “fuel racism against Māori”.

It follows nearly a week of mounting pressure after the news publisher ran an ad from the right-wing lobby group of the front-page last Wednesday.

Te Pāti Māori says it will no longer engage with the New Zealand Herald for a‘disgusting attack on tangata whenua’ on its front page.

The Hobson’s pledge advertisement is just another example of Māori having to fight to justify our existence, writes award-winning author Shilo Kino.

Hobson's Pledge wants to remove all references in law and in government policy to Treaty 'partnership' and 'principles'.
