Newshub cancellation: staff urge owner to find saviour | 1News

Newshub will end programming and shutter its newsroom by July, Warner Bros Discovery has confirmed, with close to 300 jobs to go.

After 34 years on air, the cancellation of news on TV3 would likely leave television viewers with only one choice for local news — state-owned TVNZ.

As this news was confirmed, TVNZ's long-form current affairs show Sunday was also announced to be cancelled.

The confirmation of an end to the show comes after yesterday's news TVNZ's Midday and Tonight news bulletins at that state-owned broadcaster were being axed.
