'Cyber-bullied': Sean Plunket addresses backlash over Michael Laws' comments
Michael Laws' radio boss claims he's being cyber-bullied in backlash over his denigrating remarks on air about women candidates.
The New Zealand First candidate isn't fronting for his slot on The Platform tomorrow.
Laws has been condemned for insulting Opportunity Party candidates on the show, including a reference to sex.
Platform director, Sean Plunket, says Laws was injured in a fall on Sunday, and reactions to revelations of his comments haven't helped.
Plunket's defended them to Heather du Plessis Allan - and claimed they make sense 'in context'.
