  • 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).

    “We have previously held tournaments in Darwin during Australia’s winter months and the community has really embraced the chance to see international teams and some of Australia’s best players in action,” Mr Howard said. “We prepared in Darwin before the successful 2012 tour of the United Arab Emirates and the conditions were ideal. We have received great support from the Northern Territory Government and NT Cricket, who are all looking forward to hosting some high quality and entertaining cricket. “From a team performance point of view, the conditions will give our next tier players a great opportunity to press their claims for higher honours against some very strong opposition.” Mr Conlan said the Territory Government had lobbied hard to secure the tournament. “It’s been a priority of the Country Liberals Government to get international cricket back to the Territory in all forms of the game and it’s fantastic to see Cricket Australia work with us to achieve that goal,” he said. “Today’s announcement follows last year’s historic Ashes Tour Match between the Chairman’s XI and England in Alice Springs, as well as the Under 19 International cricket series held in Darwin. “These games are an important opportunity for our junior cricketers to see the elite stars of the game in action up close and see first-hand what is needed to perform at the top level of the sport. “Some of the big names coming up for the series include Phillip Hughes, Mitchell Starc, all-rounder James Faulkner, one of the best finishers in One Day International cricket, Australian Twenty20 top order batsman Cameron White and the Territory’s own Kane Richardson.
