in the media scrum with John Key, he was asked what he thought of the Herald and their actions printing the photo and putting it online. One of the fairfax reporters (I'm guessing) pipes up in the background and says "and stuff.co.nz too"...

it took them a while to get up the guts to post it though!

ftr: men in the middle eastern countries with shaven faces are seen as feminine and become targets for rape.

There is so much wrong with this statement I don't even know where to begin. Fortunately I can't really be bothered. Wallow in your ignorance.

i'll admit it's heresy, albeit from someone that works in the middle east.

To be fair, the office was divided.

Oops, sorry for my outburst. I lost control for a moment. Every so often I forget that almost invariably everyone else's information is consistently better than mine.

Not really an excuse as far as the Herald is concerned, though. They knew it was a pair of SAS soldiers and that should be enough to blur the faces.

But they look so, so damn MANLY! Blur it out and it's just a couple of twats in uniform.

Hell, those beards are so awesome they almost sufficiently obscure their identities with no blurring required.

Yeah, this is true.

I did my bit, tried to explain the problems with it, but I think 'its not illegal' and 'this will differentiate us' won over.

C'est la vie.

One of the reasons it wasn't published straight out as "Willie Apiata kicks ass and takes names in Kabul" was because, thanks to that monster beard, nobody was 100% certain it was him. Despite people comparing pixels on the high-res photos.

I'd laugh if he came back to NZ and said "Yeah I was the guy on the left".

lol, 'this will differentiate us'? That was one of their reasons for printing it? Cripes, we really are dealing with 'special' people here. It certainly did differentiate them, albeit in a negative way

Regardless if it's true or not he should totally claim that just to fuck with people's heads.

Besides: Is it better to be the dyslexic guy or the illiterate guy copying the dyslexic guy?

How is the other guy well known?

The reports I've seen on TVNZ, they have blurred his face. TV3, however, haven't. And before you ask, yes I have complained to them.

The whole self righteous shit from him is just not beleivable. For someone to put so much effort into carving such a "don't give a shit" online persona to start jibbering on for the "good cause" just seems to fucking queer.

Get it together CCS you fecking ball bag.

I was actually impressed that he dropped the persona over this. I agree with him, but honestly wouldn't have expected him to get all passionate about it here.
