While TV news shows are becoming an endangered species here, they’re still going strong in Australia and broadcasters back them with big budgets. But intense competition also prompts dodgy decisions that can cost them dearly in the courts rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Midweek Mediawatch - the departure of broadcasting minister Melissa Lee - and the arrival of the next one Paul Goldsmith. Also: a controversial TV interview with the Israeli ambassador - and some truly startling stuff in a Stuff illustration rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
The Minister of Media and Communications is out after promising new policy to address the media’s acute problems. Paul Goldsmith now inherits the tricky job some predecessors have cited as a reason for resigning - or even quitting politics altogether rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
My wonderfully talented cousin @AngusGillies Good night, and good luck to the unsung heroes of the news thepost.co.nz/nz-news/350247…
Another survey, another slump in New Zealanders' trust in the news. Mediawatch discusses the findings with two editors - and asks what can be done to turn things around rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Both parties in the deal to outsource Newshub’s 6pm TV news to Stuff say it’s the way of the digital future, but it also provides a cut-price version of what viewers have had in the past. Mediawatch asks a former Newshub chief how it might work rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Midweek Mediawatch - Stuff in uncharted waters taking on Newshub at 6. Also: TVNZ going 'beyond broadcasting,' NZ Post & NZME add to print's predicted passing; recognition for a one-man band in Southland - and Colin mixes up Mark and John . . . again rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
The new bulletin will not be “on the cheap” stuff produced on iPhones, says Stuff's boss. But it will stretch the company's staff, finances and technology. rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Warner Bros Discovery has done a deal with Stuff to provide news to replace Newshub which will keep news on TV channel Three. It will provide much-needed income for Stuff, but the level of investment in the project and the length of the deal is not known rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Is it a dearth? Or a plethora?
Many observers said this week's epic cuts to news had been coming but few seemed to have a plan for it, including the government. Mediawatch looks at what we lose, efforts to resist the cuts & talks to the news chief at Newshub which is set to close rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Midweek Mediawatch - Newshub's closure & cuts at TVNZ mean 300+ journalists' jobs will go & TV news & current affairs shrivels. Could another outlet fill the Newshub void? Also: the latest report on trust in news & listeners' questions about what it means rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
TVNZ's Sunday cancelled, RNZ understands rnz.co.nz/news/national/…
“Newshub needs a lifeline. Those people who are looking to do these deals, get on and get them done and save some of these people and save some news for Kiwis” - Newshub's Patrick Gower rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Warner Bros. Discovery has confirmed its plans to shut down Newshub, including its website and all TV news shows by July 5. 294 staff will lose their jobs. The company says no deal is in place yet with any third party to supply daily news rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Breaches of the broadcasting standard for 'discrimination and denigration' are rare in news media - but hosts on just one network have now managed that three times in the past four years rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Staff of TVNZ’s Fair Go and news shows Midday & Tonight have been told the programmes will end. The future of Sunday is not yet known. TVNZ is meeting with staff over two days to confirm cuts to jobs and news programmes first proposed last month rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
TVNZ's begun meeting staff over two days on plans for cuts to jobs and news first proposed last month. E tū union says TVNZ has not met obligations to staff set out in its collective agreement. Decision on Newshub expected from owners tomorrow also rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
