On The Blogs

Things have been fairly quiet here at NZ Pundit over the long weekend, but some of the other blogs have been quite busy.

Poneke has a great piece on the quality of New Zealand television news, and comes to the conclusion that it is appalling. This has certainly been something I have noticed about TV in general over the past few years, and I guess it was always inevitable that the “dumbing down” of the media would find its way into television news.

The Standard also has an excellent article on the continuing saga of the New Zealand Fast Forward research fund, and the reaction of rural New Zealand to National’s plans to scrap it.

And for something completely different, Kiwiblog has an interesting piece on apparent disparities between arts funding for Auckland and Wellington.
