"Journalists [in this election campaign have] got suckered into arguing with politicians about trivial, pathetic issues ... The big issues were never debated which has made the reporting of this election campaign the worst ever in our history. ...
"[T]his election campaign ... comes at a time which marks a turning point for our nation -- and not one thing National nor Labour have proposed has struck me as profound and thoughtful and designed to bring a greater long-term prosperity for all to this nation."~ Robert MacCulloch, from his post 'NZ's Media got conned by Labour & National's election campaigns & ended up chasing red herrings'

Moan, moan, moan, cry, whine, sob.
Politicians lie. Media lies. They are doing exactly what their function permits. They are doing exactly as they have always done. There are no surprises with any of this. It is well known and has been for decades and decades.
Work out how much of your time, product, labour and property is taken from you. It is more than half. Extend that out over your lifetime. Think about the magnitude of what you have lost so far and how much more you are going to lose.
So why do you bother with following mainstream media at all? It doesn't help you to.
Why do you think your vote will make the difference this time around? It didn't last time and it won't this time.
There is a saying. If you are in the room and you don't know who the rube is, then it is you who is the rube.
