Both the Herald (editorial) and the Dominion-Post (Sean Plunket's column) comment adversely on the photos of Anne Tolley standing atop the crushed Nissan Laurel on Thursday.
We reckon their outrage is just a wee bit faux. Especially when on the Herald's editorial page, they carry this photograph taken by Mark Mitchell:

For the record, Mark Mitchell is a photographer for the NZ Herald, for whom he has worked since 1987. The Herald was happy to trumpet Mr Mitchell's achievements when he won a Qantas Media Award last year.
And we somehow doubt that Mrs Tolley climbed onto the crushed Nissan Laurel on her own initiative. Don't you think that the assembled media might have urged her so that they could get the money shot?

Yes, it's not fair. Tolley can't be expected to think for herself and make her own decisions! She's a National Party Cabinet Minister for God's sake.
What planet is Tolley on?
Planet National!!
NZ Herald caught out making the news again. Wonder who wrote the Editorial?
Making the news again? How so, Lesley? Did Tolley not voluntarily stand on the crushed car as a stunt in order to make the papers? If it's photoshopped that's an outrage and you should go straight to the police with that allegation!
And I imagine an editor wrote the editorial. So what?
It's kinky, isn't it? That's what the high heels and uniform is all about. That and the beaten 'car', lying submissively under the heel of the Mistress of Corrections.
It's quite sick and yet the likes of Keeping Stock, Lofty, Jabba and the idiotic Pete George can't see it.
Or can they?
