I mean have they? Or is that BS?
Or alternatively Warner Brothers is run by a very right wing billionaire who is currently gutting media organisations who used to say things he didn’t like or had credibility.
I’m not sure where this opinion as news stuff comes from, but frankly some of it is libelous and it wasn’t newsrooms run with journalistic ethics which have been running insane anti-vax BS.
While you’re all dancing with glee, these journalists were the difference between our response to the pandemic and the over a million deaths in the US.
There’s a difference between reporting news from a perspective and running propaganda and insanity. We’ve been lucky here not to have had billionaires with agendas intrude on our news so far. The unnecessary dismantling of Newshub and Melissa Lee’s support the the tobacco industry, but free market for news shows our luck running out.
Don’t go confusing an editorial stance with authoritarians and fascists buying the whole thing.
‘A trend in general’? That the world trembles at the might and power of NPR? Or that FOX the most watched ‘news’ in the US is now frequently not ideologically pure enough for the MAGA crowd about their catechism such as the stolen election crap? Which is authoritarian playbook 101- destroy the credibility of the system, both the checks and balances and the mechanisms. But hey, those NPR fusty librarians! FFS…

I dont't think anyone is "dancing with glee" at the loss of news media in NZ, it's a terrible look and feel for NZ. But, you've not been watching the NZ news closely enough if you don't think opinion based reporting hasnt crept in over the last few years then you're probably agreeing with the opinion being represented.
You keep saying that. Without any sources or evidence included. It’s like a bully saying stop hitting yourself and you deserved it.
This is not regulation in response to quality. It is the whole system that supports democracy being undercut by the social media billionaires and then being bought out by other billionaires.
This is opportunism in response to a drop in ad revenue, by a company which has been interfering with centerist and credible news elsewhere.
