Current Affairs shows
Seven Sharp is not current affairs so much as infotainment. I don’t have a problem with that because I am not sure enough happens in NZ for a daily current affairs show. This leads to manufactured stories and the like.
But I do think current affairs shows are important, even if not daily. And Rachel Glucina points out how many we have now:
- Sunday, TV One
- 360, TV3
- 60 Minutes, Prime
- Native Affairs, Maori TV
- 3rd Degree, TV3
- The Vote, TV3
- 20/20, TV2
- Q+A, TV One
- The Nation, TV3
When people say there is no current affairs in New Zealand, well far from it.
