The State-owned Broadcaster has just announced, "Every high school in NZ is set to receive a copy of a new book about the Treaty of Waitangi following a surprise donation by an [anonymous] Auckland couple". One News says the book, "Understanding Te Tiriti", is "a guide to NZ’s founding document". Except that's not the book's title. Its "Understanding Te Tiriti: A Handbook of Basic Facts about Te Tiriti o Waitangi". That is no small difference. What some people call "Facts" are not what others call "Facts". Our schools teach there's a difference between "fact" and "opinion". This book self-identifies as Factual. That's merely an opinion of its author.
