TVNZ reports rare rise in television advertisingSCOTT McAULAY TVNZ is banking on local content - such as a new series of Survivor NZ - to ensure it survives the winds of change blowing through the media industry. Television New Zealand has promised to put more of its focus on local programming after arresting a decline in its television advertising income. A highlight was a small rise in its income from traditional television advertising. TVNZ would tilt its spending on content more towards local content over time, he said. TVNZ may be asked to provide assistance to Radio NZ, which the Government plans to develop into more of a multimedia organisation, with its own television channel.
