It was just on A Current affair, talking about Hoon laws and "hoons" taping themselves whilst doing stupid things behind the wheel. They had the infamous RWD WRX running into a tree over and over. They said it was in Sydney's industrial estate but I am sure it was figured out that it happened in NZ!

They also had these stupid Habibs on there mouthing off at the coppers.

It definately is in NZ! Stupid farkn media painting a bad picture of us responsible wrx drivers.

RWD WRX BOY GETS WHAT HE DESERVES

Maybe someone should write in and point out that it was a Kiwi WRX being a hoon, in Kiwi-land, instead of an Aussie hoon in Australia. That should make people sit up and realise the media's bullshit and full of propaganda "don't always believe what you read/see/hear in the media". That should put their credibility down the drain. If normal people like us (credits to Julian first) can spot that the clip originated in NZ, I'm sure the media would have picked that up - I mean they have to check for credibility of any media they use! I should know, I hold a BA Mass Commmunication (Journalism). It just means that they knew it was a Kiwi clip, but they used it anyway hoping others won't pick it up.

anything that creates mass hysteria sells

email media watch, they love riping shit into the current affair programs

i take it you guys are talking about this??

yes this idiot is from new zealand...
and funny enough after this lil clip went all over the internet, the guy has been charged with dangerous driving etc... LOL
serves him right!

That's the one.

I guess the media just assumes the public won't spot such discrepancies - especially the middle-age mums and dads who are most likely to watch the show; to them it's just another excuse to stereotype the cities young male drivers.
Thanks, ACA...
