EXCLUSIVE: Ani O’Brien On Breaking The Maiki Sherman Story
Published 5 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
This one goes straight at the uncomfortable bit: what happens when the people who demand accountability suddenly go very quiet?
Duncan is joined by commentator and comms specialist Ani O’Brien, who broke the story about Maiki Sherman, Lloyd Burr, and an incident the New Zealand media had allegedly known about for over a year. The question isn’t just what was said, it’s why so many people who knew did nothing.
Together, Duncan and Ani dig into the Press Gallery, media hypocrisy, legal threats, public trust, and whether New Zealand journalism has become too cautious, too cozy, or just too scared of its own shadow.
