Libertarianz May Day Presence Pathetic - Much Like Them

Anti-Libertarianz Front

The Loony libertarianz must have disappointed that only three people showed up to support them. This isn't suprising since they are so far over to the loony right wing spectrum of politics, they would make Richard Prebble cringe.

One anti-capitalist protestor summed it up nicely when they said:

The Loony libertarianz are parasites, they dont have the ability or the mass apeal to organise their own demos that they have to leach on to others. These nutters have no shame. They have the integrity and diversity of toejam.

In response to the challenges facing Scoop and the media industry we’ve instituted an Ethical Paywall to keep the news freely available to the public.
People who use Scoop for work need to be licensed through a ScoopPro subscription under this model, they also get access to exclusive news tools.

Crowdsale And Crowdfunding Campaign: Help Create The Future Of Independent News

Two weeks to go! The Scoop 3.0 plan aims to create NZ’s first community-owned, distributed news and media intelligence ecosystem in 2019. We believe this ScoopPro media monetisation approach can be scaled and spread globally to support local and independent news efforts in regional New Zealand and around the world.

Scoop is an ecosystem, it would not exist without those who contribute to it, read it and rely on it for professional media purposes. Generous past support from this ecosystem has enabled us to come this far in developing our business model. Support our PledgeMe Campaign>>
