Everything about Kishore Kumar - the rogue computer science teacher at the centre of a political storm in Fiji - is bizarre. There is his appearance – the darting eyes and crescent beard that seems glued to his chin like a caricature villain in a C grade Bollywood movie. There is the staccato verbal delivery and wild language – the conspiratorial … [Read more...] about # KISHORE KUMAR: WHO KNEW WHAT AND WHEN?
# MORE SHAMELESS SPIN FROM CJ PATEL’S FIJI SUN
It may seem that Grubsheet is spending far too much time on the performance of CJ Patel's Fiji Sun but that is only because the newspaper is so shameless in its propaganda in favour of the man who controls it - the Attorney General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum. Once again, the AG's manservant, the white haired Sage from Rewa, Nemani Delaibatiki, spins the … [Read more...] about # MORE SHAMELESS SPIN FROM CJ PATEL’S FIJI SUN

Not content with being a lickspittle of the Attorney General and the worst propaganda rag in the region, the Fiji Sun has unleashed its mangy dogs of war on Grubsheet.

Saneem accuses Prasad of breaching the … [Read more...] about #”BROWN OWL”. NEITHER WISE NOR JUDICIOUS
# THE AG’S MANSERVANT AT THE FIJI SUN HITS BACK
There's nothing like free publicity and I got it in spades today from the Fiji Sun, which is clearly stung by my criticism of it for completely ignoring the Taiwanese government's account of the attack by two Chinese diplomats on one of its representatives in Suva and running only the improbable Chinese Embassy account. The Sun dedicates … [Read more...] about # THE AG’S MANSERVANT AT THE FIJI SUN HITS BACK
#FIJI SUN. NUMBER ONE FOR CORRUPTION
I was being far too generous in my assessment of the Fijian media last week in describing the Fiji Sun as a travesty of a newspaper. It is, in fact, a grotesque parody of a newspaper - a propaganda rag not only for the FijiFirst government but the Chinese Communist Party which the Fijian people can no longer trust and should boycott. In the wake … [Read more...] about #FIJI SUN. NUMBER ONE FOR CORRUPTION
