(Open Letter to the Minister of Broadcasting)Dear Mr. Goldsmith,IntroductionAs I said in my emailed letter of 28/07/2024 to you as Minister of Justice, New Zealand lacks both a democratic media sector and a democratic education sector. Instead of these sectors examining both sides of every issue, they are full of activists who concentrate on furthering particular political agendas (especially Feminism) and blocking the expression of views or publication of evidence that contradict these agendas.In this connection, I am now writing to you to accuse Radio New Zealand of being (amongst other things) a megaphone which is devoted to frequently providing Women's Refuge with undeserved credibility, by frequently quoting its views and pseudo-statistics, as if (a) Women's Refuge were a reliable source of information on Domestic Violence in New Zealand and (b) Women's Refuge were the only source of information on Domestic Violence in New Zealand -- without subjecting Women's Refuge to any sceptical inquiry, cross-examination, or forced debate with opposing parties (such as myself).For example, on 5 August 2024, on its 8:00 AM news, Radio New Zealand reported that Women's Refuge had given record numbers of food parcels to women who were (allegedly) escaping violent relationships. I inserted the word "allegedly", because Radio New Zealand never expresses any degree of scepticisim about anything that Women's Refuge states.As I stated on my webpage "Incitement of Hatred Against Men by Women's Refuge", Women's Refuge lies and states that Domestic Violence is a pattern of power, control and coercion. In fact, Domestic Violence is violence which occurs in a domestic setting. If there is a pattern of power, control and coercion, that is a separate issue. The reason that Women's Refuge states that Domestic Violence is a pattern of power, control and coercion is because it wants to blame men for most or all Domestic Violence, and it is playing with a stereotype (created by Feminists), whereby such so-called "power, control and coercion" can only be exercised by men.See Professor Fiebert's annotated biblilography of Domestic Violence Research, which shows that women are just as violent as men.In order to establish the facts, I am forced to submit an Official Information Act request to Radio New Zealand. I am sending this request to you, initially, in the hope that you will pass it on to Radio New Zealand, because it is a highly political matter that you need to be made aware of.In so doing, I emphasise that I am not asking for your opinion, and I am not wishing to debate any matter with you (at this stage, anyway).Official Information Act RequestsUnder the Official Information Act, could Radio New Zealand please inform me, with regard to the last ten years:
Yours sincerely,Peter Zohrab

Dear Mr. Bignell,Thank you for your reply to my Official Information Request.Since you say that you do not compile the requested statistics, could you please -- under the Official Information Act -- send me copies of every news radio bulletin broadcast on RNZ National over the past ten years -- preferably in digital (electronic) form, so that I can compile the statistics myself?Yours sincerely,Peter Zohrab
