On the next Listening Post
The very lovely Meenakshi Ravi, associate producer on Listening Post, invited me to contribute to the next edition of the al-Jazeera show reporting on the media. I am not sure of the air date but I’ll be watching this week’s to see if I made the cut.
The strange thing is the reaction I get from other Kiwis—they still look puzzled when I tell them that I am occasionally on Listening Post (three times so far in 2007). This includes cities which get al-Jazeera. Yet they would not think it were odd if I said it was the BBC or CNN—so why is being part of another global news network so strange? It’s not as though we have our own global news network here in New Zealand, so we are not exactly in a position to judge.
Still, I’m proud to be on the show and to offer sometimes an alternative viewpoint.
