MediaZone4K 1514 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 (edited) Didn't know where else to post this. Does anyone follow the news in New Zealand? The soon-to-be-defunct Newhub and its competition 1 NEWS New Zealand are aesthetically gorgeous. Would love for CNN to implement these looks for either Newsroom or News Central. New Zealand and Australia are the two countries I've seen whose news production is greater than or equal to that of the US. Does anyone know the set designer? Newshub (bottom pic taken from a 1 News story on them). This is very CNN with the color scheme. Love the slanted desks and the sloped single monitors. Reminds me of the National Telemundo set. This would also work really well on an NBC O&O with a blue and white color scheme. Thanks to ATL NEWS Expert for putting me on to this outlet. 1 News NZ. Love the Amazon Alexa looking desk.

nycnewsjunkie 1408 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 What a horrible turn of events for Newshub and for New Zealanders. WBD has already been making cuts to its NZ division, but to close the entire newsroom is diabolical. A lot of good people are going to be out of work, and most importantly, it’s a disaster for New Zealand. TVNZ (the state-owned “public” broadcaster that operates more like a commercial channel in practice) is going to have a monopoly on TV news. What a joke. I don’t know of too many healthy democracies with a lack of media diversity. You can’t adequately scrutinize people in power when there’s only one, state-owned outlet available to do it. I’m hoping there’s a way to save Newshub before June, but I wouldn’t bet on it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLNewsExpert 309 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 1 News Newshub at 6 News First at 5:30 Newshub Late Three AM (also effected by the Newshub closure) Decided to share the intros and montages of all of New Zealand's news programs for those unfamiliar with the market. I did not include 1's morning show "Breakfast" as it actually doesn't have an intro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
