In which the fat owl of the remove delivers real news ...



There's a tendency by the pond to overlook Akker Dakker. 

The reptiles often mark him down and hide him away, only trundling him out late in the day, but dammit, the man is a living Bunter legend, and attention must be paid ...


Better still, the bilious Bunterish one has discovered the very same issue recently covered by the sadly completely ignored prattling Polonius ... the wickedness of the ABC, and that shameful Fran Kelly hussy woman ...


Now please, the pond won't have any talk of sour grapes, just because the ABC decided to ban the sagacious Bunterish one for making an ass of himself and the ABC one too many times ...


Ah the good old days, and probably about the time that the pond decided it could bear to watch the show, though how the fat owl squealed and waxed indignant to his understanding lizard Oz buddy...


Why the fat owl should have cared so much about appearing on the dastardly ABC must remain a mystery, but at least, brave and valiant soul that he is, he didn't harbour a grudge and his coverage of ABC-related matters has been exemplary in its distilled essence of Murdochian purity ...


Family First NZ, an apolitical body?

For some reason, the pond couldn't resist taking a look ...


Yep, that's about as apolitical as you can get, and once again the fat owl shoots and scores and publishes real news, unlike that dreadful rubbish on the ABC ...

As for the rest, there's no doubt that NZ is in an advanced state of ruin, thanks to gay marriage, and this sort of speechifying by onetime National Party MP Maurice Williamson, recently recalling his speech back in the day ...


More here, including the speech, but it goes without saying that fear, bigotry and prejudice is what the fat owl dearly wants, and so his final gobbet is the finest part of his rich effort ...


Thank the long absent lord for the fat owl taking the side of a determinedly apolitical party ...


And so to an NZ cartoon from 1st December 1994 ...

  1. He's a true Aussie gem, our very own Acker 'Fat Owl' Dacker. If he didn't already exist, he could never have been invented.
