Paul Henry, failed National Party candidate, disgraced former broadcaster, resigns from TVNZ board
Looks like this is the month of the retreads. Look at this guy: We’ve see this racist rissole before. How tiresome. ACT party leader David Seymour looks relieved there’s another stand-up comic (hopefully) joining the caucus. It’ll take the “be entertaining” burden off him. My experience, working at the same radio station as Henry in […]
‘No comment’ with reasons = ‘an interview’? Nope.
So the Sunday Star Times rang Paul Henry for an interview. He said ‘No, sorry, won’t/can’t talk’ (meaning on the record) or words to that effect and was courteous enough to have a brief chat with the journo… who later transcribed the discussion, and the paper published it.

Paul Henry: gracious in victory
So, in keeping with my general policy of confronting and directly answering criticism, here’s a response… OK, that’s actually what I said (sorry to quote myself) but it seems Paul Henry subscribes to the same philosophy. Henry’s acceptance speech at the Qantas Awards is worth watching (video below the fold) because his delivery is almost […]
Say goodbye to Paul Henry the abusive try-hard
TV breakfast shock jock Paul Henry was over the line with his “retarded” comments about Susan Boyle the Broadcasting Standards Authority found, and TVNZ didn’t do enough to rectify the matter. The BSA ordered the broadcaster to “read an agreed summary-of-decision statement on Breakfast within a month.” Given his history, Paul Henry appears to believe […]
