What a bunch of vultures

On the mornings that i have time - i flip open my laptop and browse the blogs that are in my Google Reader. This morning the first one i clicked on was Keeping Stock and his opinion of the behaviour of the journalists who approached Nick Smith when he arrived at Wellington airport yesterday.

My first instinct after reading what Inventory2 had to say, and without watching the video was to defend the journalists as just doing their job.

I am glad that i took the time to watch the video before i commented.

Their behaviour was shameful. It showed a total lack of any form of respect, empathy, or humanity.

Not a proud moment for those journalists - i am thinking.

It is awful to watch and i find Nick Smith that much more endearing than i did this time yesterday - after watching how he handled that.

What a bunch of vultures.

I agree with you Jackie - I had tears pricking my eyes as I watched that. It didn't seem much to ask to let him carry on his way and then ask him the questions at the press conference as he kept reiterating to the throng.....not nice to witness at all. K.x
