Warner Bros Discovery (WBD) has finalised an agreement with legacy media organisation Stuff to replace Newshub’s 6pm news bulletin starting July 5.
Specifics of the investment and the duration of the deal remain undisclosed.
Under the arrangement, Stuff will deliver a one-hour bulletin on weekdays and a half-hour bulletin on weekends. Additionally, it is expected that Stuff will integrate a live Newshub website into Stuff.co.nz, claimed to be the NZ’s ‘most-visited’ news website.
Staff from both Newshub and Stuff were briefed on the deal today. According to Senior Newshub reporter Michael Morrah, there will be ‘limited’ opportunities for former Newshub staff, while Stuff’s publisher Sinead Boucher assured her team that some Newshub staff would be involved in producing the 6pm bulletins.
The negotiation process leading to the agreement was conducted in secret, with numerous media companies pitching proposals to WBD after the initial announcement of Newshub’s closure.
While the financial terms remain confidential, the investment from WBD is expected to be a fraction of the cost of running Newshub.
The transition poses challenges for Stuff, including technical setup costs and the need for additional resources to meet daily deadlines.
According to RNZ’s Mediawatch, the partnership aims to retain viewership during the transition to online-only news consumption.
This will end in disaster as Stuff is arguably the worst website for news in the entire country, it’s a toss up really amongst them all. All they will do is continue to push and shove the globalist propaganda so they also will get very few viewers other than curiosity seekers at the beginning.
Great choice.
I do not for a second doubt Stuff’s ability to put the “bull” in bulletin.
👍👍
Out with the old and broken, in with the …. old and broken.
A pig with a huge over-contoured lipstick.
A turd painted pink.
A most useless re-animation.
Dead man walking.
Stuff ascending into TV?
Let’s call it Zombie TV.
But most importantly: WHY do Warner Bros Discovery, a jewish held consortium, do CPR on a dead duck?
BTW: where do Michael Morrah and Sinead Boucher reside?
Bad teaming up with worse? I never ever go near Stuff, I view them as the very definition of the MSM. So as far as I’m concerned this wont make one iota’s worth of difference. I’ll wager I’m not alone in saying this, either.
A dark day for media in New Zealand. I suppose I will simply avoid this broadcast as I do with all MSM Meet the new boss, same as the old boss 😂
They just don’t get it do they?
We still won’t watch them.
Stuff. One of the worst and most hated businesses in NZ. Bunch of lying w**kers. Not interested in watching or reading anything by those clowns
More of the same BS from leftist TV 2.0
Just watch this skewed intro into this piece of drivel:

As the dude above said: They just don’t get it.
But as wrought and conformist these ‘journalists’ might act, I think we witness a colossal act of self-deception coupled with delusions of grandeur. These actors have been in the lime light for a long time, honing their avatar, and they simply cannot falter. I mean, just listen to Tame in that clip above. Pay attention to how he and his sidekick skew the reason for funding problems of RCR to disguise why most other legacy media is going broke (what rhymes with “broke”?) all-the-while getting their own ar*es waxxed by govt. bribery. And the glee in his voice and on his visage he barely can tame.
I mean, how utterly vacuous can actors be acting?
It’s almost surreal.
You just can’t make up this sh*t.
It must be humiliating.
A bit of humiliation upon those we despise is pretty AWESOME!0
