NEWSHUB HARBOURS MORE SINKING

Michael from Trentham

Newshub impending closure is terrible news for the NZ public. It gives TVNZ a free reign with no similar competition in the pipeline that will draw out a better result for us viewers in live and editorialised televised news.

It also impacts on radio, with the Newstalk ZB network having less need to interrupt broadcasting with "Breaking News".

It also makes newspaper more vulnerable at an earlier stage than what has been envisaged.

The Post must surely have its days numbered now.
The former Dominion and Evening Post dailies for Wellington and lower North Island emphasis is now but a shell of what it was. And payment for six-day delivery is fast approaching $100 a month.

As an example of The Post losing touch with local events, the Hurricanes announced their starting 15 if not the whole 23 for this Sunday's Super Rugby Pacifica match at Sky Stadium yesterday but no mention in Thursday's The Post. This is a first for the Hurricanes which are under a new coaching team, having previously year after year only released its playing team two days ahead of a scheduled match.

The Hurricanes won their first up competition match for the 2024 season by a wide margin last Saturday (our time) in displaying error-free, energetic form but you would hardly know this or its significance reading The Post.
