Kim Dotcom's NZ lawyer says court papers regarding legal action by seven major Hollywood movie studios against the internet mogul are yet to be served.

According to the target, it was a "disgusting smear campaign", but the revelation that Kim Dotcom owns a signed copy of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf doesn't seem to have done his fledgling political party any harm.

Is the media guilty of biased coverage of politicians and parties? Bryce Edwards looks at the allegations that election coverage lacks impartiality.

Claire Trevett asks: "Who is the mystery electorate MP Kim Dotcom has claimed will soon shed his or her political clothing of yore and emerge in the royal purple of the Internet Party."

Kim Dotcom’s Internet Party has started registering support in a new political poll, and could have enough to gain one seat in Parliament if it did a deal with Mana Party.

Kim Dotcom bought his NZ residency with a $10m cheque; now he wants to buy off Hone Harawira to try to secure the balance of power at the September election, writes Fran O'Sullivan.

Dotcom has about as much chance of playing kingmaker in 2014 via his just-launched Internet Party as Corkery has of succeeding the Queen to the British throne, writes John Armstrong.

Kim Dotcom has paid back about $400,000 of up to $900,000 he owes to creditors - but one sees the late payment as a public relations ploy.

Kim Dotcom will soon be available to investors through the NZX. But he is not coming to the NZX through the front door, writes Brian Gaynor.

Owning a copy of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf, even a rare signed one, does not necessarily indicate a sympathy for Nazi ideology.

Kim Dotcom's Internet Party has attracted 600 members just over 12 hours after launching.

Love him or loathe him - there's no doubting Kim Dotcom knows how to make an impression, writes Bryce Edwards.

The Shareholders Association has warned investors to be wary of the market speculation surrounding TRS Investments - the company which this week announced it would merge with Kim Dotcom's Mega in a $210 million deal.

The timing of revelations that Kim Dotcom owns Nazi memorabilia could hardly have been worse, writes Toby Manhire, coming on the eve of the launch of his political enterprise.

Kim Dotcom's Internet Party last night looked set to gain the 500 members necessary for registration in record time.

Kim Dotcom has ruled out the unlikely prospect that his Internet Party could work with National, a move that rekindles the possibility of an alliance with the Mana Party.

Mana Party leader Hone Harawira says he is not bothered by the fact that Internet Party patron Kim Dotcom has a signed copy of Adolf Hitler's book Mein Kampf.

If Kim Dotcom becomes part of a king-making triumvirate in September, I will run around the neighbourhood waving my undies in the air, writes Pam Corkery.

On the eve of his Internet Party launch, Kim Dotcom has admitted owning a rare copy of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf.

Kim Dotcom works in mysterious ways, writes Bryce Edwards. The ongoing saga of his Internet Party - which launches tomorrow - is one of great mystery and drama.

Kim Dotcom's Internet Party will respond to Mana's demand that it commit to getting rid of the National Government when it launches its membership drive tomorrow.

Whether he is a virus, or a puckish imp, sent by the gods to mock those who would rule over us, Dotcom continues his uncanny facility to bring out the ridiculous in our politicians, writes Brian Rudman.

Analysts and brokers say the back-door sharemarket listing of Kim Dotcom's Mega will pique the interest of some but is unlikely to get mainstream investors on board.

One of the main shareholders of the company Mega plans to use to achieve a $210m listing on the NZ stock exchange is facing market manipulation charges in Australia.
