A news anchor in New Zealand reads viewer mail making fun of a recent female guest’s mustache. It’s funny ’cause he’s a dick, and it’s funny ’cause of Flight Of The Conchords (aka “the source of most of what I know about New Zealand). We have Bill O’Reilly and they have this guy:
Murray would not approve.





























neither would Neil Finn.
Wow, that was just like watching basically anything with Ricky Gervais.
This is the kind of thing I’d expect from an Australian, but a Kiwi? No…..the consult will be angry.
That’s pretty much exactly what I was going to say.
total asshole? present.
The lady with the beard is just trying to be a hipster.
i sent them an email that said “fuck that guy,” hopefully, they read it on the air
start a group… awww, what a nice old man.
Don’t you see, New Zealand! It’s exactly what they want! Stop sending emails, and the intentionally acerbic morning show hosts will go away!
I got distracted by her lovely blue top.
it was an ironic mustache … that’s what he didn’t get.
He has a… what under his desk…?
I love that he just totally owned it. His co-host was calling vile and everything and he just laughed. Then went on to talk about it more. Yes he is an asshole. That’s just kinda his style. Plus it’s obvious that his role on the show is resident asshole and he’s playing it up. The difference with O’Reilly is that he thinks he’s actually a great humble everyman “just lookin’ out for the folks.” Which makes him much more of an asshole. This guy is half way between O’Reilly and Colbert’s “character.”
:22 was pure
.
dis is affensive. my momma had a mustash and she dead now. dis is not funy. take dis off or else.
She obviously doesn’t care what people say about her if she GOES ON TV WITH A MUSTACHE. So who cares if this guy read a few letters from people pointing out the obvious? She’s a lady. With a mustache. On TV. Them’s the breaks. He’s doing her a favor. Maybe next time SHE will shave HER mustache before going on national TV.
he’s really nowhere near an equivilent to O’Reilly. then again, new zealand television is nowhere near an equivilent to fox news, so, maybe he actually is.
i can’t help it but i did kinda laugh at him a couple of times. honestly though…..lady with a mustache.
ps- i’m also a third grade boy and an asshole.
I apologise on behalf of all New Zealand assholes, and wish to assure you that Paul Henry is not indicative of our assholishness.

And yet in two posts you all will turn this same invective onto an inoffensive group of highly rehearsed Israeli entertainers. Your trite little high school chic criticisms and your faux outrage are boring. Good work Lindsay. Gabe’s gone for one day and the site jumps the shark twice. Better do some more posts about amusing monkeys or The Room. Everyone be sure to pile on and rate me -1000 or whatever. It won’t stop the soothing balm of your groupthink from stinking up the web. Done.
The worst part of this is not that Paul Henry is a Grade A d-bag (he is, though). It’s not even the fact that the state owned station he’s on has allowed him to carry on saying shit like this for years, no matter how repulsive. The worst part is the amount of people who adore him for being a “straight shooter”. People bow at his feet for getting up at 5 in the morning and being a dick to as much of the population as possible.
ladies with mustaches freak me out too.
i love this newscast…. is it like this all the time? its awesome
I don;t understand whats so funny about it. She has facial hair. Women grow that shit too.
Also, hes a fucking liar because he did more than just read a few letters. What a droll troll… nah-mean?
he’s got nothing on this guy

Pretty fast, by New Zealand standards: http://www.mrvintage.co.nz/results.html?q=Paul+Henry
He’s a real life Alan Partridge, and that lady next to him is his Glen Ponda. Though if Glen Ponda had a mustache, so she’d actually need to be a lady with a…nevermind.
