Laural watch: more fair and balanced
Good signs: the Irish newspaper (The New Zealand Herald) has been pretty supportive of Laural Barrett so far and I was interested to read that the Murdoch Press has been positive in its coverage of Miss New Zealand, quoting Miss Australia Kimberly Busteed. It’s in stark contrast to how Fairfax treated Laural after her win, though a few weeks ago, she did rate a footnote in the Australian newspaper group’s Stuff website.
