OzKiwi has drafted a letter of complaint to News Corp, which it has posted on its Facebook page. It has gathered more than 1000 signatures for a "massive class action" against the media giant, which would be launched if the group did not receive a retraction and apology, Mr Faulkner said.

I bet that they claimed those 1,000 signatures from New Zealander's by going down a dole office in Sydney for about an hour.

The point I was trying to make with my link caption was that the Chinese in the late 19th century/early 20th century & then the Asians in general in the early 1990's were treated in a similar way by the NZ media & some sections of NZ society.  We're quick to forget that.
