  2. Scouting America drops diversity initiatives from event after pressure from Pete Hegseth #scouts #petehegseth #scoutingamerica #BSA #cartoon #gregkearney #kearney

    It saddens me as a former scout and current scouting volunteer to have to draw today’s cartoon. I still believe in the value of scouting in a young person’s life. I will remain loyal to true scouting ideals but will also call out the national scouting leadership when they fail to adhere to them.
    A scout is brave and the national leaders should live that point of the scout law.

    I'm not sure that's fair to the BSA. As Edwards says, the BSA opened itself up to complaints about digital broadcasts in 2020. I doubt it was their desire that the first actionable one happened to be against The Pratfarm.

  24. Just listening to Duncan Greive's 7 May special edition of The Fold on the government's decision to abolish the BSA;

    thespinoff.co.nz/podcasts/the-

    I stand corrected on my suggestion that the BSA could theoretically accept complaints against podcasts. Greive mentioned that "on demand" services are specifically exempted from BSA jurisdiction. Confining them to regulating only live broadcasts.

  28. So if there is a media regulator empowered by the state, it needs to be very carefully designed. Its power constrained and tightly focused. Its purpose, structure and operations regularly reviewed. Ideally by a review board including representatives from media entities and civil society orgs (eg Better Public Media, InternetNZ), as well as Parliamentarians.

    We need to pressure the government to put this new body in place as part of abolishing the #BSA. Not after, maybe never.

  32. "Removing content standards such as accuracy, balance and fairness, I think invites a significant political risk. You could end up with a rogue media operator with significant market power that chose to ignore them, with impunity. And I think that's politically dangerous, democratically it's indefensible."

  45. Maybe media in Aotearoa would benefit from a cross-party working group on media? One that oversees media regulation covering print, broadcast and digital media, as well as public media, in a holistic and coherent way.

    It's role could be to find consensus on media legislation so it doesn't become a political football, subjecting people and organisations working in media to constant, whiplash-inducing changes of policy direction? Eg the future of the #BSA;
