The Prodigal Son of morning broadcasting, Ryan Bridge, appears set for a return to TV3 (Three) as part of a new deal between Herald publisher NZME and Three owner Sky TV.
Media Insider understands that the two NZX-listed media firms are in discussions for the Bridge-hosted video news show, Herald Now, to expand to Three’s digital and on-demand channel, Three Now, each morning.
That could presumably also pave the way for the show to screen on Three’s linear TV channel.
The deal – yet to be confirmed by the companies – would pave the way for Bridge to make a remarkable return to TV3 and would be one of three major morning media moves in 2026.
