Local playout ended overnight Thursday, this could possibly explain the abrupt ending on Friday.

A very heartwarming scene.

Just 10 seconds before going on air one more time, Samantha Hayes and Mike McRoberts was holding hands together. They did it again at the end of the show. :pleading_face::heart: (via @weatherkeats on IG)

I didn’t know that Newshub’s design was based off of the New York subway.

From Media Insider today:

Any hopes Warner Bros Discovery might have had of recovering some decent coin from its newsroom assets in Wellington were dashed this week.

More than 80 items of furniture, TV equipment and other goods from the former Newshub newsroom in the Capital generated a grand total of just $8664.

There were bargains galore: An outdoor BBQ sold for $10, a leather lounge chair for $5 and a couple of decent-looking office chairs for $5. A swag of televisions were sold - a couple of Smart TVs went for more than $700.

One of the biggest assets, a Caterpillar diesel generator, was passed in after the highest bid, $15,100, did not meet reserve.

One source told Media Insider: “I know that it was suggested that staff could take their pick from what WBD didn’t want shipped back to Auckland… that didn’t happen. A total like this will be the final insult.”

Auction underway for office and production equipment from Newshub-Flower Street.

Lots of random items (feels like some people just walked out and left their things):

  • CNN mugs
  • Mixed Lot of NZ Railway Memorabilia
  • Drinks trolley

Alas, no set pieces.

I love it how the ringbinder is a lot on it’s own… it’s not like it’s a Laminator (the king of office stuff)!

Does anyone know if the Newshub.co.nz stories have been migrated to Stuff’s website? I know there was talk of this in the early discussions of Stuff taking over the 6pm bulletin.

I can’t say for sure, but I believe this was put in the too hard basket.

Yes it looks like they have, this article for eg was indexed on google from newshub and is now on Stuff
(though minus video it seems)
