Media disenchantment...(The Platform 6th May).

Dianne from Onehunga

Exactly what motivated New Zealand's mainstream media chief's to help destroy their most valuable asset-trust in their editorial independance-by accepting a share of $55million in govt cash, WITH strings attached, remains a mystery given the obvious pitfalls. Journalists are being told: 'Toe the line on He Puapua and the prescribed interpretation of the Treaty (ie as we see it) or else you won't get funding.
Graham Adams' poll in 'The Platform' shows how badly the $55M media fund has damaged public trust.....and not one of the big outlets printed the poll results!!....surprised?....

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
