band hits back
Six60 has hit out at a Sky News presenter who highlighted the band’s use of te reo Māori in tour posters.
Australian broadcaster Rowan Dean said on Sky News that in New Zealand "there's been a big push to be more inclusive of the Māori, the Māori language, the so-called 'iwi' at the moment".
Dean said a lot of "new language" was coming in, before showing a poster he claimed was sent to him by pop group "Sixty Sixty...or whatever".
"It's all in Māori, there's not a word of English anywhere in there," he said.
