State-funded legacy media broadcaster RNZ has been accused of publishing misleading climate information after failing to acknowledge historic heat records that contradicted its reporting.
The controversy stems from a story by RNZ’s “chief climate reporter”, Eloise Gibson, which claimed that Hamilton had likely experienced its longest stretch of hot days since records began.
The claim, based on data from “climate scientist” Luke Harrington, ignored historical records from 1935, which showed a significantly longer and hotter streak.
When confronted with this evidence by independent journalist Ian Wishart, RNZ refused to update the story’s context, choosing instead to maintain the original fake narrative.
Critics argue that this decision, signed off by RNZ’s CEO and Editor-in-Chief Paul Thompson, reflects a bias in climate reporting and a breach of journalistic integrity.
Despite RNZ’s editorial policy emphasising “accuracy and the correction of mistakes”, the broadcaster’s response to the controversy has been minimal, leading to accusations of deliberately misleading the public.
The full story is published on The Centrist.
Is anyone surprised? Not to mention the unwillingness to correct mistakes? The MSM is all but dead, propped up by taxpayer dollars.
W__kers, please no longer contribute my taxes to these lying, souls sold, pieces of shite.
Oh look! Luke Harrington is associated with the WEF!

This idiot wasn’t alive in the 70s and 80s when we had hotter temperatures and droughts.
Defund and expose the toes these muppets have to the globalists.
I tuned into rnz national over the holiday period for some entertainment…
I discovered an anti Trump, pro net zero brainwashing machine. A true cesspit if disinformation and seat of mass delusion. A captured entity.
The homogenous mass laps up this BS unquestioningly…
All “our” networks are pushing the same narrative. A truly shameful and evil collusion.
Let the light of the truth turn these serpentine demons to dust.
I can understand an honest mistake – which is later honestly corrected with full disclosure.
But why are my taxes wasted in financing Radio New Zealand’s dishonesty? I want an immediate end to state-funding of RNZ.
Rnz = crazy pedo groomer leftists talking to each other
MSM have been manipulating the vulnerable with this propaganda for years. The Chch Press used to have full time climate alarmists generating drivel to keep the biggest lie ever told in the spotlight. That and other reasons led me to cancel this dreadful excuse for a newspaper years ago. The CCC have also fallen for this nonsense, hook line and sinker.
Eloise Gibson spent 2015 in New York on a Fulbright scholarship. I couldn’t find information of ‘private’ donors to Fulbright, but a list of Fulbright’s govt. ‘incentives’ are listed here.
Then Eloise completed an MA in ‘science writing’ at Columbia University. WTH is ‘science writing’? Bullsh*tting about scientific consensus, lol?
Anyway, has to come the backer not a pretzel.
Add: *baker* and not a pretzel

Not the first time, Ian Wishart had to correct NIWA regarding cyclone Gabrielle, it was a result of climate change of course, parroted by the MSM, apparently NIWA had no records going back, I would call BS on that. Ian done some research and discovered that there had been at least 3 low pressure events similar to Gabrielle going back nearly 100 years. You have to wonder about another agenda.
Climate change is a hoax created by The Club of Rome in 1968.
They feared overpopulation would lead to a shortage of resources.
With populations collapsing worldwide the hoax is no longer necessary.
I totally agree Harry. Both with your statement about the ‘Club of Rome’, its objectives and the pending spectacular decline in the world population later this century. The only thing stopping a significant decline currently is ‘oldies’ like me refuse to die off in a timely manner.
One way in which climate data can be manipulated is to include the temperature in cities when it never used to be: Cities are heat traps with all the concrete and glass and can be 2C or 3C warmer than the rest of the country. This skews the data so that it looks like everywhere is getting warmer when it is not.
I don’t listen to this BS anymore. In the 1970’s we were going to have an ice age by the year 2000 where all of Europe would be frozen over and covered in meters of ice. In the 1980’s the sea levels were going to rise 200ft to 300ft and all coastal regions were going to be underwater.
I do not trust the science and, perhaps, scientists should keep their opinions to themselves, because that is what they are: Opinions.
Same thing goes for the Insurance Companies no longer covering oceanfront properties.
Just ask the folks in coastal Christchurch & Kapiti..
Here’s the hoax exposed w/ ‘spin and visuals’…

And don’t forget in 2020, half the world’s population was going to be wiped out by a “pandemic”.
Honestly anyone still listening to a word they say is clearly suffering from fluoride poisoning.
Have a look at the sea leve data – it’s so boring it;’s unbelievable. https://www.stats.govt.nz/indicators/coastal-sea-level-rise-published-october-2019
SEA LEVEL RISE IN NZ for the last 100 years.
10cm RISE IN 100 YEARS
1cm RISE PER YEAR
Spread the word to all Coastal communities – they are lying to you – and they will take your land & cancel your insurance because no one is looking at the actual Data.
