Hard times for hacks down under. New Zealand news fans learned last week that Newshub/nee 3 News, the 6pm bulletin on TV3, is coming to an end in June, alongside pretty much all other news output and some 200 jobs. The decision, by Warner Bros Discovery, left tv news broadcasting to state-own TVNZ; and now they're cutting back.
68 jobs, 9% of all staff, will go, and programmes to close include Fair Go, a 47-year-old consumer rights show, the 'Sunday' news and current affairs offering, and the weekday half-hour bulletins at 12.30pm and 10.30pm.
