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. -

There is a huge opportunity to upgrade the quality of our the fact that around 25% of our immigration but right now, public angst over the workforce wasn’t born here is sheer numbers of migrants sees the Government testimony to that.

Roy Morgan Poll Most Accurate on NZ Election
Article No. 8549 Available on www.roymorgan.com Link to Roy Morgan Profiles Tuesday, 20 October 2020 Roy Morgan Poll most accurate on NZ Election – predicting a ‘crushing’ Labour majority for PM Jacinda Ardern The most accurate poll of the weekend’s New Zealand Election was the final Roy Morgan New Zealand Poll which predicted a ‘crushing’ victory for Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and a governing majority for the Labour Party. The official results show the Labour Party with 49.1% of the Party Vote finishing well ahead of National on 26.8%, Act NZ on 8%, the Greens on 7.6% and NZ First on only 2.7%. The final Roy Morgan New Zealand Poll released two days before last Saturday’s election showed the Labour Party with a Parliamentary majority winning lead on 47.5% - closer than the final polls for both 1 News Colmar Brunton (46%) and Newshub-Reid Research (45.8%). Roy Morgan predicted National support of 28.5% which was significantly closer to National’s election result of 26.8% than either Newshub-Reid Research (31%) or 1 News Colmar Brunton (31.1%). All three polls under-estimated the extent of Labour’s support and over-estimated support for National but the average error for the two major parties was only 1.65% for Roy Morgan compared to 3.65% for 1 News Colmar Brunton and 3.8% for Newshub-Reid Research. Roy Morgan was also closest when considering the results of smaller parties such as Act NZ and the Greens and minor parties such as the Maori Party and The Opportunities Party (TOP). -

Do We Need Kiwi Lessons in Biculturalism?
Do We Need Kiwi Lessons in Biculturalism? Considering the Usefulness of Aotearoa/New Zealand’sPakehā ̄Identity in Re-Articulating Indigenous Settler Relations in Canada DAVID B. MACDONALD University of Guelph Narratives of “métissage” (Saul, 2008), “settler” (Regan, 2010; Barker and Lowman, 2014) “treaty people” (Epp, 2008; Erasmus, 2011) and now a focus on completing the “unfinished business of Confederation” (Roman, 2015) reinforce the view that the government is embarking on a new polit- ical project of Indigenous recognition, inclusion and partnership. Yet recon- ciliation is a contested concept, especially since we are only now dealing with the inter-generational and traumatic legacies of the Indian residential schools, missing and murdered Indigenous women and a long history of (at least) cultural genocide. Further, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, with its focus on Indigenous self-determi- nation, has yet to be implemented in Canadian law.
