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.

Letters to the Editor Guidelines
Letters to the editor Guidelines Do you feel strongly about a child poverty issue? Write a letter to the editor using our simple letter writing techniques, list of email addresses and examples of sample letters (family income assistance, housing, health, education, gambling etc): • All newspapers require your name, personal address and daytime telephone number. • Do not send your letter as an attachment. Use cut and paste. • Check the word length accepted by the newspaper (usually around 150 words). Longer letters may be published but could be edited in a way you do not agree with. • The brevity of letters means you can only make one or two points. Make sure your arguments are set out in a logical way. • Get someone unfamiliar with the issue to read the letter – does it make sense to that person? • Stick to the issues and avoid personal attacks (even if you are responding to a personal attack). • Try to respond to an issue as soon as possible. • Proofread your letter carefully and check your word length. • Letters can be emailed –put letter to the editor in the subject line. • If you have any questions or want a letter to the editor checked, email [email protected] Email addresses of main daily papers Letter to editor in subject line/cut and paste text Ashburton Guardian [email protected] Bay of Plenty Times [email protected] Dominion Post [email protected] Daily News [email protected] Daily Post [email protected] Gisborne Herald [email protected] Greymouth Evening Star [email protected] Hawkes Bay Today
