Yep, he’s filed the odd report. It was amusing to see Laura interview Heather Keats (now in her MetService role) last week too.

@sj2450 Stuff’s main headquarters is in Wellington but the company, which produces ThreeNews for Warner Bros. Discovery NZ, has newsrooms stationed across the country (including Auckland and Christchurch, though ThreeNews itself is based in Auckland).
Oh cheers. I knew ThreeNews was based in Auckland, so i just assumed Stuff was as well .

Trade Me is set to take a 50% stake in Stuff Digital, the two companies have jointly announced on Tuesday morning.
The deal will bring together New Zealand’s largest news website and online classifieds businesses.
Stuff Digital will remain a standalone company with news, but tied in with property and automotive listings, geared to compete with NZME and its property business OneRoof, as well as a new tie up with Australian classifieds business Gumtree.
Stuff Digital is the digital arm of the Stuff Group. It publishes the website stuff.co.nz and ThreeNews. The deal excludes Neighbourly, Stuff Events and the group’s Masthead Publishing business.

Wonder if Trade Me will really be that eager to continue with producing a TV bulletin after the contracts up.

And tomorrow he said.
Also some issues at the end of the bulletin including cutting the weather short, timing issues in the closer and the closer music not playing
And it appeared that the VR Set was replaced with a still image of the set after the weather? Looked like the photo was taken prior to the move from the old Newshub building.

Looks like they brought back the “Your Say” poll segment… kinda?
The question was “Should Lorde visit Wellington on tour?” with the link to “stuff.co.nz/yoursay” however, it takes you to an article that was last updated on Nov 29, 2024.
Looking around the website, i couldn’t find anything with the question.
