PAUL HENRY OUTED: POT, KETTLE AND BLACK!
Broadcaster Paul Henry’s unfortunate and derogatory comments about overseas trained doctors followed by TVNZ’s apology have attracted a deal of media interest. What has not been appreciated until brought to my attention by a vigilant member is that Mr Henry is, in fact, an overseas trained broadcaster. Although born in New Zealand (we have to claim some responsibility I guess) he moved with parents to England at the age of 11 years, trained as a broadcaster there, and did not come back to New Zealand until he was a chronological adult. Given his comments about overseas trained doctors, words like pot, kettle and black come to mind.
