  • JMAD Media Ownership Report
    JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2014 Published: 2014 December 5 Author: Merja Myllylahti This New Zealand Ownership Report 2014 is the fourth published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD). The report finds that the New Zealand media market has failed to produce new, innovative media outlets, and that all the efforts to establish non-profit outlets have proved unsustainable. The report confirms the general findings of previous reports that New Zealand media space has remained highly commercial. It also confirms the financialisation of media ownership in the form of banks and fund managers. The report also observes that in 2014 convergence between New Zealand mass media and the communications sector generally was in full swing. Companies, such as Spark (former Telecom NZ), started to compete head-to-head with the traditional broadcasters on the online on-demand video and television markets. The American online video subscription service Netflix is entering the NZ market in March 2015. Additionally, the report notes evidence of uncomfortable alliances between citizen media, politicians, PR companies and legacy media. As Nicky Hager’s Dirty Politics book revealed, the National Party and PR practitioners used the Whale Oil blog to drive their own agendas. Also, events related to Maori TV, TVNZ and Scoop raise questions about political interference in media affairs. It is now evident that the boundaries between mainstream media, bloggers, public relations practitioners and politicians are blurring. Key events and trends concerning New Zealand media Financialisation of mass media ownership confirmed Substantial changes in Fairfax, APN and MediaWorks ownership Competition heats up in online television and video markets Turbulence at Maori TV Blurred lines among politicians, bloggers, journalists and PR practitioners The JMAD New Zealand media ownership reports are available here: http://www.aut.ac.nz/study- at-aut/study-areas/communications/media-networks/journalism,-media-and-democracy-research- centre/journalists-and-projects 1 1.

  • JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013
    JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013 Published: November 28, 2013 Author: Merja Myllylahti This New Zealand Ownership Report 2013 published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD) outlines how the financialisation of New Zealand media intensified as News Limited pulled out of Sky TV, and as lenders took 100 percent control of MediaWorks. In 2013, controversy erupted when it was revealed that a journalist’s phone records had been handed to a ministerial inquiry without her consent. The move was condemned by over 300 journalists as the government’s invasion of privacy was seen as a threat to media freedom. The government also passed legislation giving extra surveillance powers to the Government Communication Security Bureau (GCSB). This represented an institutional threat to journalistic autonomy. The report also finds that the bloggers and blogosphere gained prominence and influence in relation to the commercially driven mainstream media. In October 2013, there were 280 ranked blogs in New Zealand, and the top political blogs recorded high visitor numbers. Key events and trends concerning New Zealand media ownership Financial institutions take control of Sky TV and MediaWorks MediaWorks goes into receivership, keeps losing content rights Bauer media grows in influence, buys The Listener and other magazines Sky TV stirred, but not shaken by the Commerce Commission and new competitors Leading newspapers stall paywalls, local papers launch them APN and Fairfax newsrooms shrink, profit boosted by asset sales and job cuts This New Zealand Media Ownership Report is the third published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD).

  • The Only Decent Thing Paul Henry Has Done
    13 October 2010 Socialist Aotearoa www.socialistaotearoa.org The only decent thing Paul Henry has done All decent New Zealanders are celebrating over the news of Paul Henry’s resignation.Henry resigned in the face of growing outrage over his racist comments. TV bosses and the PM originally stood by Henry. This shows their unwillingness to stand up to bigotry. Socialist Aotearoa was right to lead a protest of anti- racist activists outside the TVNZ studios last week following the racist remarks made by Paul Henry in his interview with Prime Minister John Key on Monday 4 October, and to call for him to be sacked. Henry asked Key if Sir Anand was “even a New Zealander”. Henry then went on to ask Key about his next choice of Governor General: “Are you going to choose a New Zealander who looks and sounds like a New Zealander this time? Are we going to go for someone who is more like a New Zealander this time?” This response by TVNZ was wholly inadequate. People have a right to their own opinions, but Henry is a paid employee of a state subsidised TV company. Our taxes should not be used so that this right-wing bigot can pedal his racist filth on national TV. This is not the first time Henry has used his TV show to abuse other people. Henry gave a half-hearted apology earlier this year for disablist remarks he made about singer Susan Boyle and the Indian Govern- ment have lodged a formal complaint about racist remarks he made to an official of that Government.

  • Demography, Diaspora and Diplomacy: New Zealand's Asian
    New Zealand Population Review, 36: 137-157. Copyright © 2010 Population Association of New Zealand Demography, Diaspora and Diplomacy: New Zealand’s Asian Challenges ANDREW BUTCHER * Abstract This policy note takes a long-term view of the challenges New Zealand may face in its relationship with Asia, both domestically and internationally. Drawing on research commissioned by the Asia New Zealand Foundation, the paper discusses three main areas. First, demographic changes present challenges for New Zealand’s bicultural relations, social policy, how we measure and understand ethnicity and issues of national identity. Second, New Zealand has one of the largest diaspora populations in the world, but this is largely ignored in policy especially with respect to Asia. Third, possible diplomatic challenges are outlined, including increased pressure on off-shore diplomatic posts by diaspora and tourist populations, diplomatic incidents, and the implications of shifting regional power arrangements in the Asia-Pacific region. Introduction n surveying a growing ‘Asian New Zealand’ population and New Zealand’s future in Asia, this article considers three themes: Idemographic changes, diaspora opportunities and diplomatic challenges. This paper follows Statistics New Zealand in identifying the Asian region as the part of the world that extends from Pakistan in the west to Indonesia in the east. It includes South Asia but excludes West Asia (the Middle East), Russia and its former states, and some countries that are on the Pacific Rim (such as the United States, Australia and New Zealand, which are all considered part of a broad ‘Asia-Pacific area in some forums such as the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) and the East Asia Summit).

This thesis uses a staged research process to explore the perceptions of teaching academics about the impact and equivalence of the two routes into “the profession”, and what they understand by “being [a] professional”.

    Wilhelmina Shrimpton A proficient and adept broadcaster, and certainly an all-rounder, Wilhelmina Shrimpton has amassed years of experience across radio, TV and online. More than decade ago she began her career with TVNZ, before cutting her teeth as a journalist in the hot house that is the RadioLIVE newsroom. Television eventually won Wilhelmina over again, and in 2015 she found herself working on Three's morning show with Paul Henry before quickly moving to a reporting role on Newshub Live at 6pm. She’s been at the forefront of numerous breaking news events in our recent history. She covered the Lindt Cafe Siege, the Kaipara Harbour boating tragedy, the Kawerau siege, and the Christchurch mosque attacks. But Wilhelmina has also enjoyed the creativity of lighter story, learning to perfect a more conversational style while covering events like the NZ Music Awards, NZ Fashion Week and several Royal Tours. She’s particularly interested in crime, justice and social issues - having done numerous investigations on topics like homelessness, synthetic cannabis and loan sharks. Up until recently Wilhelmina split her time between reporting for Newshub Live at 6pm and fronting Newshub Late, before she departed the newsroom to explore the world of digital advertising and content. She’s previously been a regular panelist on Three’s AM Show, and currently acts as a fill in host for MagicTALK’s weekend lifestyle shows. Despite having lived a fast-paced news lifestyle, friendly Wilhelmina loves a good laugh. Her light-hearted personality makes her instantly likeable, her approachable smile always at the ready.
