Newshub

Maybe relaunch coming soon.

A shame about the yuck results they are presenting on the graphics…

It appears that Newshub uses the same font as Three and AM are using… almost.

They are the same company.

Most of the movement is within the margin of error… like TV 1’s poll last week, there’s actually very little change in at the moment.
It’s another case of over-inflated reporting, probably because very little is happening.

Yes that is indeed true.

I’m not a ‘poll truther’ by the way, I don’t think polls are systematically cooked etc… But it very much annoys me how Newshub does not round their percentage figures like 1 News. It’s poor statistical practice to show decimal places - implies a higher level of accuracy than the poll provides.

Question: has there been anything said or update in regards to Bernadine from AM? Its been 8 months atleast. Hoping she is well of course just wondering if she will return

Hearing AM Early and Newshub 11:30 have been gassed.

Are you serious???

Yes - believe the changes take effect end of next week.

Wow, and they’re not wasting anytime implementing it. I suppose after that massive loss this year, the cuts had to come from somewhere. Abit miffed they’ve axed AM Early, quite enjoyed the early news before heading off.

“Focus shifts to social, digital” is the spin used by TV broadcasters every time they’ve axed something in the last 10-15 years. Usually results in nothing or in a gimmick that doesn’t last long…

A shame that Newshub have retreated so quickly from their big expansion of news programmes at the beginning of 2022.

Having said that, Newshub’s digital output is quite poor at the moment and could be improved significantly.

Same excuse they used when they axed Newshub Midday back in 2016

At least this one got an excuse unlike Newshub Live at 8, whose existence seems to have been expunged after not returning this year.

Wonder if Oriini will replace Bernie on AM. Hope they still have the door open for her though.

Seems like Newshub has a worse track-record than 10 for axing and reimplementing bulletins.

That just vanished and WBD still don’t acknowledge it’s existence, even when pressed for an answer “silence”.

TVNZ must be pleased, they’ve got the lunchtime slot all to themselves again.

I wonder whether TVNZ even treated it as competition. The numbers were miniscule for Newshub @ 11:30
