One of the characters who was part of the investigation they were doing in this particular episode owned an ISP of some kind, and he said, &#8220;We&#8217;ve just picked up New Zealand.&#8221; Cut to a piece of sculpture which anyone at all familiar with NZ native art would know had nothing whatsoever to do with New Zealand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t even close; even the colours were ones that are never used here. Perhaps Pacific Northwest, but I&#8217;m no anthropologist. And I thought, how hard is it to get something like that right? Have an intern spend 30 seconds on Google Images. Don&#8217;t just fish some random tribal-looking sculpture out of the props department and pretend it&#8217;s from New Zealand because that&#8217;s what it says in the script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttp:\/\/droil.tumblr.com\/post\/147465789869\/coelasquid-castleships-okay-im-only-gonna<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n\n      ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>        Via Charlie Loyd&#8217;s\u00a0excellent newsletter, some different perspectives on cultural appropriation.<br \/>\n       <a href=\"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/2016\/07\/26\/via-charlie-loyds-excellent-newsletter-some-different-perspectives-on-cultural-appropriation\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":77,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[21],"tags":[94],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3680"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/77"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3680"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3680\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/csidemedia.com\/mikerm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
