NZ Herald features a twerking 7-year-old in gender ideology push aimed at children

Social Issues Summaries

Summarised by Centrist

According to Family First’s Bob McCoskrie, the “good news” is that The NZ Herald video featuring a 7-year-old in stilettos and pushing gender ideology aimed at children has been pulled.

He further states: “For the New Zealand Herald to glamorise, normalise, and even promote it is unforgivable. Oh, by the way, it was funded by New Zealand on Air, so you helped fund it.”

The video appeared in the Kia Kids section of the Herald, which generally includes content like sports and music stories for youngsters. McCoskrie characterises the article as part of an agenda to sexualise children.

Critics argue kids featured pushing gender ideology crosses the line by normalising harmful content for young audiences.

McCoskrie also points out the multi-episode documentary series titled Trans Generations aimed right at children.

In the end, he articulates what is for him the key point:

“Many people think the New Zealand Herald is more right leaning than left leaning compared to other mainstream media outlets in New Zealand. Well that theory has been well and truly debunked. Apart from a few talkback hosts scattered around New Zealand. Most of the mainstream media in New Zealand leans left, which shows in their reporting and their coverage.”
