Bodhi Revisited
Dear Neighbours,
I understand a public interest story about Bodhi’s untimely death will not appear in the local newspaper. Apparently a certain party does not want it published. Thank goodness for Neighbourly.
I have been open with all information relating to this event. In spite of strong feelings about what happened to Bodhi, I have tried to be reasonable and even-handed with the vet. I trust the local newspaper would have been as well ...and would have fairly represented the views of all sides. Is there a genuine reason why the wider public shouldn’t know about this story? Wouldn’t being aware of what could happen to a pet at a vet be in the public interest? Could it possibly save an innocent animal’s life? Isn’t this more important than money or reputation? And what happened to a free press? This doesn’t sound like New Zealand.
Should this story be on Facebook, Twitter and the whole wide-world of social media or should I let it go? What do my neighbours think?
Sincerely,
David
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
