Stuff backtracks on Luxon hit job

Chris Luxon said in Whangarei that “I don’t need to do this job” and ““I choose to do this job because actually I want the potential in this great country of ours to be realised for the benefit of our kids and our grand kids.”

Quite an unremarkable statement. But Stuff decided that they had to manufacture a story so went around asking random people what they thought of Luxon saying he doesn’t need “a” job, and ran a story that was 100% negative on Luxon.

They then deleted the story, but only after the damage was done.

I hope there is a complaint to the Media Council about it.
