“PIGEON SHOOTING”
Higher or Lower Matters ‘ The question of controversy must, I am sure, worry a number of radio listeners,” says a southern writer, 1 or instance, Karl Marx, although he has beeu dead a number of years, is more or less taboo. Ami yet there seems to be no objection to tho reporting over tho air of a live pigeon “shoot.” I am quite sure that in New Zealand a great number of people dislike live pigeon shooting from traps with cash prizes as a reward for sportsmanship. “Therefore, live pigeon shooting heroines a matin for controversy. And therefore the Broadcasting Board should be consistent. 1 suggest that a definite decision be arrived at as regards controversy. If on the one hand Krishnamurti is to be banned because he wishes to talk on higher matters, so should announcers be banned when they talk on lower matters.’’
