Appalling sexist journalism from the NZ Herald

Filed under: General — golfa @ 3:55 pm Mon 1st August 2016

I’m disgusted by this story. The headline proclaims “Woman killed changing tyre”. When you actually READ the story, you discover that a man was also killed. So TWO people were killed yet the Herald only thinks the death of the woman is important enough to make it into the headline. Dreadful sexist journalism.
