Is there a reason why apart from the 6pm bulletins, all other news/current affairs programming takes such a long Summer break?
Itâs a cost v ratings thing.
The cost to continue it canât be supported by the ratings as everyone heads away on holiday or isnât watching TV at that time of day, Australia can probably get away with it due to its size but NZ is too small of a market.
NZ in general shuts down until mid January!
Yup, to support what OnAir said NZ is in holiday mode during the summer, during this period networks will usually assess their shows in order to judge any adjustments that need to be made for the next show in the new year.
As this is the television sub forum, Iâve removed âand radioâ from the topic title. Feel free to create an NZ radio thread over in foe âmediaâ sub forum.

Kim Vinnell and Michael Morrah presented 3 News last night; Tagata Pasifika reporter Seinafolava Sanele Chadwick has since joined 3 News (again).
I dont know why 3 news are bothering to double head this summer esp when theyre coming from a keyed set. One News are singled headed this summer for the first time since around 2008? and theyrr doing just fine.
Itâs ridiculous that they donât even do a shot with both presenters, and that one of them has to wrap the bulletin up. @damian One News had Daniel Faitaua present over the Christmas/NY period in 2014-2015. Greg Boyed and Melissa Stokes have alternatively shared the position for 2015-2016.
Looks like 3 Late News was brought back last night until Newsworthy starts up again in February. Jenny Suo presented that bulletin last night.
Here is the Opening
Sacha McNeil On Prime News Tonight
Tom McRae and Carolyn Robinson have been presenting 3 News at Six this week; while Europe Correspondent Melissa Davies is presenting the 3 Late Edition News.
